ParalAssist
Description:
ParalAssist is a sleep paralysis assistant. Once it is given a "racing heart rate" it monitors the wearer until it detects a heightened heart rate and wakes the wearer up.
Inspiration:
I suffer from sleep paralysis and there's nothing out there that can help it so I decided to create something that would.
What it does:
It's a FitBit app that responds to signs of sleep paralysis and takes action to stop the attack.
How we built it:
I built it with the Fitbit SDK.
Challenges we ran into:
I've never programmed an app on my own so that was pretty hard.
Accomplishments that we're proud of:
My bpm picker works, so that's pretty cool!
What we learned:
A lot - I didn't really have too too much experience with js outside of 220 so I suppose it's like learning a new language.
What's next:
Getting feedback and posting it on the Fitbit App Gallery, if the interest is there.
Built with:
Javascript and markup.
Prizes we're going for:
HAVIT RGB Mechanical Keyboard
TBI Pro Gaming Headset
$100 Amazon Gift Cards
Hustle Award
Social Entrepreneurship Award
Grand Prize
Blu R2 Plus Smartphones
