Cystic Fibrosis is a chronic, life-limiting condition affecting sufferers from birth. The main preventative treatment for CF is airway clearance exercises, however, this is often tedious and boring to perform, especially for children.
Project Fizzyo aims to address this. It consists of a connected device and cloud platform that gamifies airway clearance exercises by turning breath data into joystick controls. Custom games have been developed with the help of hackathons and the system is now being evaluated in collaboration with University College London as a way for clinicians to monitor their patients and gain greater insight into their health, using statistical analysis and machine learning techniques.
