My first idea was to design a device that helps people to determines they heart rate, which the purpose of the device is used to determine the fitness level or health level of the user.
However this idea seems to be very common and boring ~ so therefore I've changed my idea direction to a device that measures your hearing.
The reason for this idea is basically allow the users to determine if they hearing is at risk of future disabilities, for example deafness ~ at a older age .
How is it measured:
Device sent a numbers of high/ low pitch or varies level of sound waves/ signals to your ear, which then you reply if you can hear these sounds clearly or not (4 options, none - low - some - clear.)
The Device then calculate according to an average hearing of a person from a certain age group and matches your hearing with theirs.
For example If the user has a rather bad hearing~ the device will give you an hearing age of late 40's even though the user is at his/ her early 30's. This information will allow the user to be more cautious of loud noises within the work environment or from they ipod~!
which is a major concern for young people these days.
