Thesis Statement:
A wearable that reads a person’s Physical ability plus Asthmatic Ability plus BMI to generate a risk-time curve that helps the user achieve his optimum performance ability.
The cardiovascular system and respiratory system interact during exercise. Incorrect breathing methods and over- exertion results in asthma attacks during exercise or any intense physical activity.
We wanted to balance and maintain a healthy flow of oxygen in the patient, during exercise, by using pace correction and breathing methods that would help the user sustain for longer periods of time. The long-term benefit of this would be – improved lung function.
