Inspiration
Though, how much we pay for one-time appointments at our physiotherapists, most of us tend to exercise incorrectly or at least inadequately. In Rural areas there is unavailability of physiotherapists and affordability is another issue as it is not possible for everyone to pay a physiotherapist on a daily basis.
What it does
We have made a wearable(band) that a patient can wear while a doctor teaches him/her a particular exercise and it will record the 3D data of a particular exercise and save that data to a mobile app wirelessly. Now the patient's android phone will work as a virtual physiotherapist and can correct the patient if he/she is performing an exercise improperly. we have also made a web-platform through which the doctor can visualise the progress of the patient while sitting anywhere on the planet.
How we built it
We have used various platforms and technologies like:
- Arduino MicroController
- Bluetooth Technology
- Android
- Web
Challenges we ran into
- Creating a connection between the Device(Band),Mobile App & the Web-Platform
- Reducing the noise of the data to increase the accuracy ## Accomplishments that we're proud of
- Completing the project at a POC level
- Making a cost effective but still a Marginal Value Product. ## What we learned
- Time Management
- Work Division ## What's next for mTherapy Taking it from a POC level to a product.
