Heartrate Summary
Live tracking of the patient

Inspiration

One of our teammate’s grandfather had Alzheimer’s and often he would go missing and his family members had a tough time tracking him and bring him back. We could track if they go somewhere locally but this is nearly impossible if they walk off to distant places. So we wanted to find a way to keep our teammate's grandfather safe by building something which can be helpful for all the patients suffering from Alzheimer’s disease.

What it does

The proposed solution requires the user to have a smart-watch that will be connected to the care-taker’s application. The watch continuously sends data - HeartRate, Step Count, ECG, location to the caretaker’s application. The user can have any kind of smartwatch starting from Apple Watch to Fitbit and the proposed application will be able to extract data from any of the Apple watch. The application mainly focuses on the parameters of heart rate and location. If any abnormal reading is observed the caretaker will be notified with a push notification on his mobile phone. The application also gives emphasis on the user’s current location as most of the people suffering from Alzheimer’s frequently get lost in the crowd. In this way, the application answers the most important two issues of Heart risk and poor navigation skills by making use of the heart rate and location parameters offered by Smartwatch and iCloud

How we built it

The application is mainly using Swift-UI and Firebase. The front-end is built using Swift and the backend is entirely Firebase.

Challenges we ran into

Getting the data from the watch and transfer it to firebase was a bit hard
Connecting the front-end to the back-end was a bit hard as we ran it a lot of errors
Integrating all the components into one single product was a bit challenging
