Big Hero You, the gamification of exercise for diabetic patients
Objective:
We wanted to revolutionize the way people think about exercise outside of the gym. Exercise does not have to be restricted to one place, it can include exploring the city you live in.
Solution:
Exercise is important for everybody, but especially for people with diabetes. But exercise isn't limited to lifting weights, it includes going to a local park, or visiting a museum. The app we built has multiple picture challenges, where users have to go to different locations around the city and document their adventure to earn points. The goal is to encourage people with diabetes to incorporate exercise into their daily lives by doing things you enjoy.
