🚭✋ Smart Habit Breaker Device:
- Some habits once made are very hard for many people to get rid of them .
- I myself have seen many people in my life who cannot stop the habits like smoking and biting nails. Even thought knowing about the health consequences
- Thats why I came across FingerHalo a wearable device that detects hand-to-mouth habits (like nail-biting and smoking) and gently alerts the user, helping them break the behavior over time.
How FingerHalo Works??
1. Detection System
Motion Sensors (Accelerometer + Gyroscope): Track arm/hand movement patterns.
IR Sensor: Detects when fingers/cigarette approach the mouth.
Pattern Recognition AI: Learns the difference between eating, drinking, smoking, and nail-biting.
2. Feedback System
Haptic Feedback: Gentle vibration when the habit is detected.
Sound or Light Alert (optional): A discreet beep or LED glow.
3. App Integration
Habit Tracking Dashboard: Logs attempts (e.g., "5 smoking motions today", "3 nail-biting motions").
Progress Rewards: Badges for reducing habit frequency.
Calm Alternatives: Suggests breathing exercises, fidget activity, or gum when triggers are detected.
Health Stats: Shows money saved (for smokers), stress patterns (for nail-biters).
4. Device options
Smart Ring: Stylish, detects finger-to-mouth motions.
Wristband: Fitness band style, monitors arm movements.
Clip-On: Small sensor you can attach to shirt or wrist.
Power & Connectivity
Rechargeable battery (USB-C or wireless charging).
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to sync with phone.
5–7 days battery life with normal use.
🎯 Impact
Nail-biting: Builds self-awareness of an unconscious habit → easier to quit.
Smoking: Helps reduce cravings and frequency by creating an immediate “pause moment.”
Overall: Acts like a digital accountability buddy.
