Inspiration

We were initially inspired by the U.N. Sustainable Development Goal #3: “Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages.” Many people avoid working on their physical and mental health because of many factors. For many people, costs of doctor’s visits and therapy are entirely unaffordable. Due to this issue, at the intersection of Healthcare Assistance and Accessibility, there is a need for proactive health measures.

What it does

a Chrome extension that aims to help people take care of their physical and mental health in proactive ways, utilizing both preventative/informative and reactive measures.

How we built it

We built it using JS and a manifest file, while following tutorials.

Challenges we ran into

We attempted to use the notification feature, which wasted a lot of time. We found a quick and easy alternative with the alert feature.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud for trying new platforms and building a chrome extension, which neither of us have done before.

What we learned

We learned that it's good to reach out for help early and to find tutorials for the subjects you are trying to learn.

What's next for 5enses

We are interested into expanding the app into the vision we had in our presentation. We only got to implement the proactive side, but also want to code a reactive side of the app.
