Exercise Is Medicine (EIM) - fitness tracking Web App for chronic patients
EIM is a programme lead by the Department of Sports Science & Physical Education in CUHK, with coorperation of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering. It advocates adding exercise into chronic patients’ ordinary treatment.
The computer science and engineering department is mainly responsible to the development of a web app and a mobile app, which are used to upload and present the exercise data catched by patients’ smart bracelets.
I worked as a back-end developer of the web app with the team led by professor James Cheng in this summer. During the development, I learnt a lot of tools adn technologies of web development, and I also got a lot of chances to practice them.
