Health and Fitness App Use, Evaluation and Opportunitiesctorgan
This tutorial presentation was given by invitation at the annual meeting of the American College of Sports Medicine and World Congress on Exercise is Medicine. We welcome comments, questions, and ideas regarding this fast moving area.
These slides use concepts from my (Jeff Funk) course entitled Biz Models for Hi-Tech Products to analyze the business model for Google’s Smart Lens. Its smart lens monitors a diabetic’s sugar levels with a contact lens that measures the glucose in tears. This provides users with faster feedback on their glucose levels than with other meters and thus can help diabetics better manage their life styles. The smart lens contains circuitry that is fabricated on a polymer substrate. We recommend that Google market its lens through a medical equipment supplier such as Medtronic and focus on the collection and sale of the user data to health care companies.

Project delivery is a robust application called the ADAPTATION and PERSONALIZED FITNESS APP. which will provide three main modules for users to use. First, users can do exercise wherever they like by using the Exercise section where it contains different types of exercises and exercises that can help them and help them live a healthier life.However, a healthy lifestyle cannot be done entirely with exercise because the role of diet is also very important. Users will be able to keep track of what they have eaten and eat the right foods by looking at the statistics related to their bodies in the diet category. Finally, users can do yoga at home.Basically, all of the above activities are intended to help users stay away from serious illnesses so that they can enjoy a healthier life with their loved ones. For a clearer picture of fitness apps, there is a fitness app updated for this project which is Runtastic Running and Fitness. Therefore, the life cycle model of repetition and multiplication is adopted in this project in order to determine the feasibility. Few needs cycles, design and implementation phases will pass while other features will be added to the application up to the project.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
3. INITIAL CONCEPT
● Medical alert system utilizing multiple sensors to
connect with designated emergency contacts when
vitals go out of range
● Would learn your patterns based on activity, user
entered data, and biometrics to make better health
decisions next time you repeat an activity
Basic health monitoring during fitness activities with a
contingency plan in place
6. SURVEY
● Sent to potential future users of the Red++ App
● 37 respondents
● 69% female and 31% male ranging in age from 18 to
over 55, with over half of respondents (69%) between
the ages of 18 and 35
● Respondents were asked to estimate the number of
hours per week spent doing physical activity, and
perceived level of exertion (low, medium or high
intensity).
7. SURVEY RESULTS
● Respondents wore a variety of health/fitness devices
and used a variety of health/fitness apps
● 69% analyze data from activities either sometimes or
always and 56% said that real-time data had high
importance to their overall experience.
● Hydration/water intake levels (74%),
sodium/electrolyte levels (66%), and heart rate (88%)
were important during or after an activity
● 72% want to notify EMS, 67% friends or family
8. USE CASE: NOVICE
●
●
●
●
Just starting to actively monitor his/her health when performing
activities
May not be ready to jump headfirst into regular monitoring, but are
interested in trying to maintain a record
May not know what is important to monitor or when his/her body is
reaching its limits
Red++ will help them learn not only their own limitations, but also how
their body is adjusting with regular activity
9. USE CASE: INTERMEDIATE
●
This user has generally mastered the basic features and is interested in
exploring more advanced features
10. USE CASE: ADVANCED
●
●
●
This user is very active and healthy
He or she could be a cyclist who has used several fitness apps and
devices
Convenient access to real time data is important along with a history of
activity
11. USE CASE: SOS (Significantly Out-of-Shape)
●
●
●
Similar to the novice in his/her inexperience with health-monitoring
fitness devices
The SOS user has purchased the app as a preventative measure to
dangerous overexertion
Easy set up is important
12. CARD SORT
55% of participants sorted the
cards into 7 similar groupings.
Actions:
●
●
●
●
Relabeled primary
navigation
Reorganized initial site
map
Added a
“History/Previous
Workouts” section
Separated the user
settings, to be called “”
Profile/Personal Info”,
and the system settings
21. USER TESTING RESULTS (LOW-FI)
●
●
Users confused by the overly complex
user login functions
Attaching sensors to specific activities was
difficult for users to execute
23. TREE-SORT
●
●
Distributed to 10 participants
Specifically wanted to determine the path
users would take to get to “Emergency
Contact” and “Heart Rate Pairing” screens.
24. TREE-SORT RESULTS
●
●
Overall success rate of 80-90%
Took approximately 10 seconds to complete each task
○ Task #1: Turn off notifying your emergency contacts when you go
for a workout
○ Task #2: Pair your heart rate monitor to the app
○ Task #3: Start a workout then view your workout summary
Actions:
● Place the app’s emergency notification feature under “Emergency
Contacts”
● Place sensor pairing under “Profile”
27. USER TESTING RESULTS (HIGH-FI)
●
●
●
●
●
No problems navigating to the profile page to change personal
information
Starting a new activity, clearing an alarm, and ending the activity simple
for all users
Confusion with red icon in the sensor menu, some thought it meant the
sensor was not paired, while others realized it was intended to remove
a sensor (unpair) from the current activity
Icon preferences showed that the majority of users liked the flat grey
icons the best
Post test survey questions averaged a score of over 4 in all areas with
questions ranging from app ease of use to attractiveness
28. CHANGES MADE
● Graphic changed for removing sensors
● Link to welcome screen added to "Red++" logo in
navigation bar
● Icons throughout changed to be consistent
● Hamburger on main menu to function as a back
button, rather than a return to welcome screen
30. LESSONS LEARNED
If we had better defined the features and purpose of the
app from its initial conception, could have saved time
that was spent reassessing the site map multiple times
and doing additional testing after initial prototype testing
31. FUTURE ITERATIONS (OR WHAT WE DIDN’T GET TO)
● Feature that allows users to take a health assessment
when they first begin using the app
● Expand the emergency alert system by sending
relevant information such as medical history, allergy
data, and insurance information to EMS and
emergency contacts
