Final concept for BPM integration with calendar: 

For my next project I will be taking my original concept of a “stress free calendar” by capturing data from the users heart rate and stress tolerances. When the user starts to feel stressed and overwhelmed by the events overpopulating in there daily calendar the heart rate monitor will read a set limit and freeze there digital calendar. Telling and giving the user time to BREATHE, SLOW DOWN, and PRIORITIZE with a clear mind.

NEXT PROJECT CONCEPT

For my next project I will be taking my original concept of a “stress free calendar” by capturing data from the users heart rate and stress tolerances. 

When the user starts to feel stressed and overwhelmed by the events overpopulating in there daily calendar the heart rate monitor will read a set limit and freeze there digital calendar. Telling and giving the user time to BREATHE, SLOW DOWN, and PRIORITIZE with a clear mind.  

Code Pathway:

User interacting with their daily calendar (processing) >>> User starts to get stressed (Outside) >>> HR Sensor records above a preset threshold (80 BPM) (arduino) >>> HR senor (arduino) triggers the digital calendar (Processing) to stall and not allow the user to make changes or add to calendar for a certain amount of time (1 min ?)
