Project Title: Manipulation of Augmented Reality for Child’s Energy Expenditure
Project problem domain: From the last few decades individual’s lifestyle is changing and now it arrived in a competitive level. And also, lack of nutritious foods and exercises derive to major health problems such as obesity. WHO shows in 2008 more than half a billion adults were suffering from obesity and it is larger than two times of obesity diffusion values in 1980.
With the new technology comes individuals addict to computer related activities more than sports. The prevalence of that quantity is increasing year by year. Video gaming is main of computer related activity which is now a day people and specially children addicted. So, if any methodology available video gaming with sports (Exercise) then it will be a significant solution for above problem. Other than video gaming with exercise if people can identify their burned calories, heartbeat rate at the same time then it will be a great opportunity to everybody.
