Abstract

The project consists of an application for mobile devices where children should take care of a virtual pet keeping it happy thanks to the happiness bar used for tracking it. These cares will be provided to the virtual pet by introducing in a simple and intuitive way the values to monitor the children illness through the day. Once the child enters the necessary values and if they are within the correct ranges of glucose, the child will be rewarded with collectibles in the form of new creatures. We find a food screen, where we have different dishes to know the amount of carbohydrates in each of them. A simple endless runner has been developed to increase the happiness of our pet by playing with it. This product has been designed to facilitate the daily life of both parents and children who suffer from this disease. With this work, I have acquired new competences in terms of the development of applications and videogames with Unity, database management and improvement in the field of programming, since my profile both professionally and in the career is focused on design. During the whole project I have been required to test the knowledge in each of the fields of work necessary for the application development and as a result, I have developed new skills related to diabetes and improved my knowledge of Unity and databases. Thanks to the previously stated, I have been able to create a project as completely as possible.
