The Isolation Solution

Social distancing policies enacted the world over during the COVID-19 pandemic have left many people socially isolated. Your challenge is to develop innovative solutions to combat social isolation.

Coview 19

Summary

Imagine turning your dining table into an arena for collaboration and fun with your neighbors with just two papers, color pencils, glue and the Coview 19 app. Exactly that, Coview 19 is an app that lets you enter an augmented reality of a scenario, where your neighbors entered the online platform and you will be able to do several things together, such as: creating a new recipe, putting together fashion looks, children will be able to paint objects in 3D and better you will be able to select objects in the 3D world with yours recyclable selector you've created!

How I Addressed This Challenge

Imagine turning your dining table into an arena for collaboration and fun with your neighbors with just two papers, color pencils, glue and the Coview 19 app. Exactly that, Coview 19 is an app that lets you enter an augmented reality of a scenario, where your neighbors entered the online platform and you will be able to do several things together, such as: creating a new recipe, putting together fashion looks, children will be able to paint objects in 3D and better you will be able to select objects in the 3D world with yours recyclable selector you've created! it's great to have fun with technology accessible to everyone. All scenarios are based on NASA research ¹, which studied the behavior of astronauts in space and our application brings this study to life and allows isolated people to have a moment of interaction and movement again with their friends, neighbors and colleagues. and all this with fun scenarios and supported by consistent methods.


Basically for you to make it work, you just need to paint the paper with 4 happy faces and 2 hearts and in the middle write the name of the application, Coview 19 !! and then just wait for your neighbors to enter virtually and interact in the proposed scenarios for each specific group of people.


In this way we seek to animate and bring back movement and people around a table, but each one in his house and our application making the bridge for all this to happen. Our big difference is having recreated an object selector that is very expensive in the market for a selector that you make with paper, black pen and glue, most people have these elements at home.

How I Developed This Project

Social isolation is the great challenge that currently bothers many people and at the same time is one of the rules that need to be followed by the population. Well, we would like to transform all that and bring people back together, but with a cheap and online solution and with methods. That is why we decided to read NASA research and found that NASA has already studied this subject thoroughly, as astronauts are the professionals most affected by social isolation with or without a corona virus. Well for our solution we use Unity, csharp, Rest Apis and NASA research methods as [¹]
