Example Applications¶
Thread-Everything's versatility allows it to be used in a wide range of applications. Here are a few examples built using the existing plugins:
Visual Meditation Assistant:¶
Problem: Meditators want a distraction-free environment and a way to track their posture without using their phones or alarms.¶
Solution: Thread-Everything's vision engine powers a contactless meditation timer with posture correction.¶
How it works:¶
Users set the meditation duration using hand gestures.
During meditation, a Raspberry Pi or Windows machine monitors posture via the camera.
Configurable alerts (e.g., lights) signal poor posture.
A summary email with posture snapshots is sent upon completion.
Smart Gym - Pace Detection and BGM Control:¶
Features:¶
-
Control gym lighting and music using pull-up movements.
-
Accurately measure running or elliptical pace using computer vision (more precise than wearables).
-
Receive detailed workout reports via email, including snapshots and peak pace.
-
Control music playback (next song, play/pause) using hand gestures.
Anti-Distraction App:¶
Detects late-night studying (or other distractions) and sends a reminder email.
