CC Lab: Soldering + Wearable Tech Pitch

Using a battery charged Arduino, Copper Tape, LED, Resistor, and Tilt Sensor I was able to make this.

WEARABLE TEACH PITCH

I like to run, hike, jump, stay active. The past couple of weeks I have noticed how important our arms are. Arms determine how fast you run, how good your posture is while running, and hit helps reduce neck, back, and shoulder pains.

After doing research, I've learned that long distance runners should have they arms at a 90 degree angle, with their elbow reaching their hip, while sprinters need a wider range of motion to increase speed quicker.

I want to create an arm sleeve that will go over the middle part of the arm. This sleeve with have an a monitor in it that will detect when the users arms are not at the 90 degree position it should be at. This sleeve will etilmate collect data, thus allowing the athlete to see at which point during the run he/she might've changed their arm form.

How to make it:

I'm thinking of using a stretchy material for the arm sleeve and an accelerometer to collect the data.
