The Project:
My job is to create an app the helps detect stress levels/triggers in a person and encourage them to slow down. Stress has become an issue especially on college campuses with freshman. Recent studies show that 62% of students are academically impacted by stress, depression or anxiety.

List of things I need to do:
-Learn to Program in java
-learn to program for mobile devices
-Research leading Causes of stress
-Research products on the market
-Start design for interface

Other thoughts I have put so far into this idea is maybe using a smart watch or fit bit to detect heart rate and movement to collect data of someone who may be experiencing stress. Another option for the app is when stress is detected other than letting the person know he/she may be stressed out as this may causes mores stress is for the app to bring up healthy techniques for dealing with stress.
