Sleep Shift Scheduling Tool
Healthy HaBits
Summary
Healthy HaBits is a unique scheduling application that autonomously schedules proper sleeping, eating, and exercise times based on age, weight, and work schedule. The algorithm adjusts accordingly based on user input and preferences to give the user an optimal schedule to follow that will improve their overall habits. This application also returns user statistics, so the individual can see their progress overtime, percentage of sleep, nutrients, and exercise achieved, and how they can best adjust their schedule to improve these statistics.
How We Addressed This Challenge
Our team, Top Secret, has decided to tackle the Sleep Shift Scheduling Tool challenge. To complete this challenge, we developed a web-app called Healthy HaBits. Our application will create a schedule that plans a user's sleeping, eating, and exercise times to keep them on a healthy schedule. This schedule is generated by taking the user's general information such as age and weight as well as their working times. With our application, we hope to keep astronauts healthy and happy in order to minimize productivity loss and health decline.
How We Developed This Project
Our group recognized the importance of maintaining healthy habits to improve productivity and well-being of every individual. Especially as six individuals in post-secondary, it is easy to often forget to maintain these healthy habits, so we decided to create a generalized application that can help. We started off with a brainstorming session, defining the problem and our solution towards it. Then we began coding the application in JavaScript and HTML. We utilized Google's Calendar API to display and create reminders of events to the user.
How We Used Space Agency Data in This Project
We did not use Space Agency Data.
