Program to find calories burnt and Rotating Space Station Module

Global Nominee

Program to find calories burnt and Rotating Space Station Module received a Global Nomination.

THE CHALLENGE: Astrocize
Space Station

Find a way to adapt common gym tools for a reduced gravity environment and design a workout routine that can minimize bone and muscular loss while being fun and easy to use during a long term mission. In doing so consider constraints regarding weight (equipment should weigh less than 500kg) and dimensions. Consider incorporating virtual reality to simulate a jog through an astronaut’s favorite Earth destinations or incorporate gaming to motivate users.

Explanation

We have made recommendations in the existing equipments to enhance their performance and make them more interesting. We recommend use of VR kits etc to make the experience life like. Also we have encoded a program to let the user know about the amount of calories burnt and suggest a daily routine based on multiple variables and also recording past routines of the user.
Also users can earn points and compete against each other to make it further interesting and even earn gifts like talking to family members etc.
Our major idea is a rotating space capsule which rotates at a calculated speed creating an artificial gravity enabling the use of basic earth gym equipments.
We have made the centrifuge economically viable and theoretically practical.
