BREATHE
Breathe is a wearable device that empowers people to improve their respiratory health.
Breathe is a wearable pendant that consists of an accelerometer and an air quality sensor enclosed in a 3D printed pendant's body.
The accelerometer senses the rapid movements of a person's chest valve in order to detect coughs.
It also consists of an air quality sensor which notifies the person wearing the pendant about the quality of the air in their environment. It also informs the user if the air they are currently breathing is prone to any respiratory illnesses.
It is programmed using Mongo DB which allows it to provide real-time data of other people in the surrounding and also comes with a feature of geo-tagging one's location.
