What it does
The main purpose is to control the workout routine. It includes counting how many reps have been done for workouts like push-ups, or how much time is left for workouts like planks.
How we built it
I used Raspberry Pi and some sensors, and programmed it with Python.
Challenges we ran into
The tilt sensor (sensor that senses the movement when working out) was sometimes inaccurate, but I couldn't find any other sensors that were suitable for the project, so I had to fix it by adjusting the code.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
It was the first time I was able to build the whole project by myself, from connecting the devices to writing the code. Also, it was a project that was actually useful in my daily life, and it motivated me to make the project better.
What I learned
The Internet was a really great tool for getting basic information about things like sensors, and by combining them I can create my own project. I also realized that I have the ability to make my own project.
What's next for Untitled
I didn't have enough time to do something that I wanted, which is to save the data of the routines to look back later.
