Idea #2 Bodysuite
What do I want the user to do?
I want the user to be more physically active by doing daily stretches and workout every other day in order to be physically active and in a better mood.

How will I encourage the user to use my design product?
My design product will encourage the user to use my design because it offers rewards points every time they use the product. These points can help them get discount on their groceries or on their medicine if they do not have health insurance.

The users will be able to communicate with their friends or family during the workout if they want to since the product can be connected to the Xbox.

The pain relief that the user will experiences after the workout will encourage them to come back and use the product more often

How this product works?
This design product produces 3 types of out puts light, sound, and motion.

Light
The lights will indicate the severity of joint tension and will be helpful to let the user know which parts of their bodies have the most tension so that they are careful in the future.

Sound
The sound helps direct the users the right way to follow the workout and it helps keep the user engaged by always providing facts about food and meals that can help people with arthritis. Moreover it provides a feedback to let the user know if they are doing the workout right such as move your hands higher.

Motion
This product helps reduce joint pain. As the user is engaged in the workout the jacket produces small electric zaps targeting muscles and joints to relax them and release pain. The user will not feel any of these electric zaps since they are not strong. The bodysuit does so by using neuromodulation technology.

Feedback
There will be an embedded system that will track muscle and joint progress in the suit that will be transmitted to the app (I will be designing) in order to have a workout. so that the next workout designed more accurately to the comfort of the user so they can have a better user experience.
Moreover, the user will receive a feedback from the app on there email of their heart beats, blood pressure, calories burned, how accurate they have done the workout/ stretches, and the amount of reward points that they have made after the workout. Moreover, the red light will turn green as a result of the successful workout which means the tension have been relived from the joints and muscles.

Physical Affordance
This product is a physical affordance since it requires the user to physically move in order for the product to function.

Dimension of Wellness
Physical: This body suit makes the user to be more physically active. Since it requires the user to at least stretch or workout in order for it to function.

Emotional: This product will leave the user relaxed and free of arthritis joint pain for 5-6hours. However, when the pain comes back it is not as painful as before. Which means the pain will gradually get better with time and consistency.

Spiritual: This product will help users to feel more comfortable, calm, and even happier because they are not suffering from joint pain for a decent amount of time. And even get better in the long term.

Environmental: This product does not cause any harm to the environment since it is made of recyclable materials.

Technology Research
Nerve stimulation – or neuromodulation – uses electricity to decrease pain sensations. In some people, neuromodulation treatments can ease pain with minimal risks and offer an alternative to medication for treating arthritis pain. These devices are generally safe.

Prototype
I am planning to have the wires placed outside the bodysuit so that it is safe
