Car Health Hub

Description

The goal of this design challenge is to create a car infotainment system that not only provides entertainment but also promotes healthcare among students. The infotainment system should offer features and content that encourage healthy habits and well-being during their daily commute. It should be engaging, informative, and user-friendly, ensuring that students can easily access and benefit from the healthcare resources while in their cars.

Target user group

The target user group for this design challenge is students who commute to school or college by car. These students typically spend a significant amount of time in their cars, and this presents an opportunity to provide them with valuable healthcare-related information and resources. They may have varying levels of health knowledge and may be interested in improving their overall well-being. The target user group may include students of different ages, backgrounds, and health goals.
