PlanetHealth

Inspiration

We care about the environment, sustainability and climate change. There isn't an app that considers the impact we have as a community and as individuals on our planet and how being fit and eating healthy is also more sustainable.

Imagine to live in a World without disease, Climate Change and Pandemics.

Sounds like a Utopia, right?

Well, we believe PlanetHealth can make it happen.

To prevent the disease, we need to strengthen our immune systems.

By monitoring major health factors on PlanetHealth like heart rate, weight, nutrition, water intake and mental health which can be easily measured or tracked by a fitness watch or a smartphone we can have an overview of our self and can detect early if something is going wrong.

Our doctors can make better and more precise diagnosis by looking and analysing historical data than just by relying on one time check-up during an appointment. Early detection and prevention save costs not only for the customers and the insurance companies, but also clinics and hospitals.

All parties benefit from this both financially and time-wise.

PlanetHealth also enables you to track your daily activities and gives you the best fitting training recommendations based on your health status and your goals.

To prevent Climate change, first of all we have to change our habits. Reducing consumption of animal products and highly processed and packaged food. We don't do just good for ourselves but also for the whole planet.

By reducing the waste, using public transportation or riding a bicycle, you can immensely reduce your carbon footprint.

Lack of education in this field, is a main cause for mainstream ignorance of these basic environmental rules. The best way to prevent this is by making the data available for everyone. By gamifying learning experiences e.g. through surveys created by environmental experts and sponsored by big companies, it will attract youth to learn and will make them proudly share their achievements on social media with their peers and attract more people to participate.

Sponsoring companies like in this case amazon will get visibility and gain Green reputation which they can use for marketing purposes.

Apart of that, in the app there is an overview of global environmental projects where everyone can inform themselves from the first hand and get a personal green certificate by donating. You can also share your sport and green activities on popular social media and encourage others to do the same.

To prevent the pandemics, apart of strong immunity system and environmental integrity, organisational and technical preparedness is necessary. With COVID many things changed in our life and it made us more precautionary and organized. It has made us understand and appreciate life and things we have, more than before.

COVID or any other pandemics or disasters can have a big impact on the economy and other institutions. Planet Health will inform and warn so we can prevent big disasters from happening.

Not to forget is that you can reach main contacts you need in urgent situations from the app directly. PlanetHealth. We make relevant data available, visible and tangible for everyone. And healthy, safe and secure lifestyle a New Normal.

How we built it

Based on the Garmin challenge, PlanetHealth uses Fitrockr API to connect analytics and cell phones. We wanted to make customer-experience front-and-center! Without distractions and smooth. Great design was the focus.

Users can easily navigate around the app which is simple and intuitive - yet, it is very powerful. With more integrations and time to develop, PlanetHealth will be go-to for consumers of Smartwatches and platforms.

The backend is designed (with a BigData runtime) so that streams of data can be easily handled, analytics can be run that assist physicians, trainers, nutritionists, doctors, insurance companies and consumer-facing shops. The backend is deployed on a dev machine but can be easily transferred over to a cloud platform.
