Inspiration

We noticed that we found it difficult to keep to our resolutions to exercise more, and also realized that we were worried if we were maintaining the correct form when exercising. While we wanted to take more ownership in our health, we found it difficult to do so on our own and at a low cost. That's why we built Health is Wealth!

What it does

Health is wealth helps users take ownership of their health through helping users commit to their exercise goals through an in-built rewards system, and helps users correct their form when exercising on their own through computer vision.

How we built it

React-native for the mobile application

face_recognition to verify user faces

opencv, numpy, mediapipe to detect user form during exercises

flask for the backend server

Challenges we ran into

We faced a poor WIFI connection throughout the hackathon, which made it hard to research and download packages

We ran into issues getting mediapipe to run, as it only worked with an older version of python.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We're proud of how we managed to solve 2 problems that we face in our daily lives when it comes to exercising

We're proud that we were able to integrate FHIR for healthcare apps.

What we learned

We didn't know much about pose estimation and facial recognition, but managed to learn it through this Hackathon.

We also learned about FHIR through this hackathon, and its importance and usability when building healthcare apps.

What's next for Health is Wealth

Future partnerships for different rewards schemes
