"Using the recovery mode, the visuals allowed me to be distracted from the attack, yet, still able to focus on the breathing. After 3-4 breaths, I was relieved." "I had an asthma attack when talking to my boyfriend on phone. At that time, I was not able to find my inhaler, so I chose Lungy. Using the recovery mode, the visuals allowed me to be distracted from the attack, yet, still able to focus on the breathing. After 3-4 breaths, I was relieved." "Using the recovery mode, the visuals allowed me to be distracted from my breathlessness, yet, still able to focus on my breathing. After 3-4 breaths, I was relieved." ‍ this app is honestly one of the most beautiful breathing apps I’ve ever come…from lungy.app

  I'm a doctor and made a responsive breathing app for stress and anxiety2023 · lungy.app · ▲666

  Hey HN! Some more info: I’m an NHS doctor and the founder of Pi-A (https://www.pi-a.io) which developed Lungy (https://www.lungy.app). Lungy is an app (iOS only for now) that responds to breathing in real-time and was designed to make breathing exercises more engaging and beneficial to do. It hopefully has many aspects of interest to the HN community – real-time fluid, cloth and soft body sims running on the phone’s GPU. My background is as a junior surgical trainee and I started building Lungy in 2020 during the first COVID lockdown in London. During COVID, there were…

  Hey HN! I’m an NHS doctor and the founder of Pia (https://www.piahealth.co) which developed Lungy (https://www.lungy.app). Lungy is an iOS app that responds to breathing in real-time and was designed to make breathing exercises more engaging and beneficial to do. It’s been two years since Lungy launched (here’s the original ShowHN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34534615) and it's had a huge update and complete redesign. We rebuilt the whole app, and added a real-time 3D soft body solver which gives some really cool interactions like blobs /…

  I built an interactive cloth solver for Apple Vision Pro2024 · youtube.com · ▲99

  A bit more context - the cloth sim is part of my app, Lungy (https://www.lungy.app). It's designed to be an active meditation / relaxation app, so you can play relaxing instruments in space and immersive breathing exercises. The original Lungy is a breathing app available for iOS, that uses real-time breathing with interactive visuals. The cloth sim is a Verlet integration, running on a regular grid. For now, I have tried a couple of different cloth scenes - a sort of touch reactive 'pad', where different parts of the cloth are mapped to different sounds and a cloth that blows…

  Trading cards made with e-ink displays▲1,149

  I made a thing! In 2014, I was holding a stack of iPhones and thought to myself: "Hey, if I had each phone display a playing card, I could click a button and they'd shuffle themselves" I pared that idea all the way down to this: trading cards made of e-ink displays. Right now, each card costs me about $20 each, but with only a bit more scale, I think I can get that down to $10. In doing this project, I learned how to design electronics and circuit boards. I learned Rust and wrote my first driver, I upped my CAD skills, 3D printed, and did my first resin casting. I generated the images on the…
