How We Addressed This Challenge

How our project addresses this challenge ?

Our project is an app called " 2gether " (it refers to the word " together ") which is basically a social communication app designed to address the boredom people feel during quarantine, our app cares about diversity, and therefore contains categories for people from different backgrounds to communicate together and share their beloved moments. so our app can solve this challenge "The Isolation Solution "

How We Developed This Project

What inspired our team to choose this challenge?

The reason is that loneliness and isolation in the home for long periods of time cause some mental illness and depression, and mental illnesses are more dangerous than physical diseases, they affect everything in the body, such as our thinking, our behaviors, our outlook on life, etc. 

What was our approach to developing this project?

Starting with the most important and simplest of the four known solutions, which is the technological solution: We have decided from our point of view to make a social communication application in a different way that has many things, whether to gain friendships from the same hobbies and interests or in terms of entertainment and entertainment and and spending time in something useful.

How did we use the space agency data for our project?

We have read a lot of things about this very important challenge, not just from space agency data but from other sources as you can find in the Resources section below.

We have taken data on this challenge from our point of view and thought how to find the most appropriate solution for this challenge. We benefited greatly from more information about the Human Research Program (HRP) on nasa website and other resources.

What tools, coding languages, hardware, and software will we use to develop our project?

As I mentioned earlier, our idea is to apply social media differently, so what we need to implement this idea are the basic things to make any social communication app, such as:

  • Mobile programming language codes such as Java or Flutter
  • API
  • Server to store data

Our team was able to find a solution to this challenge differently such as :

  1. Solve the problem of isolation and loneliness at home.
