I am researching “Smoking” as my thesis topic in the domain of Healthcare as a broad area of Interest because I want to find out why people smoke? How smoking help them? How were they tackling the things when they weren’t smoking? How can I help them quit this thing? Who are the people who want to stop? Why do they want to stop? In order to understand What were the circumstances that urge them to smoke? What’s the story behind it?

How I came up with this topic?

Recently, One of my friend’s father died due to lung cancer because he was used to heavy smoking. My friend is addicted to smoking, and he wants to quit because of what happened to his father. Now, being his friend or like a good friend, I want to help him. But I don’t know how? What can I do to help him?

So, after all the research,

My goal is to propose a solution to this problem in the form of a platform or a wrist band. A platform might be a mobile application where people who want to quit can download and find various interesting things that help them distract their mind.

  1. They can write down, what was the thing that urges them to smoke?
  2. How is their mood? What were they feeling?
  3. Interesting Games?
  4. The amount of money they are saving!
  5. The years of life they are getting to live then earlier.
  6. The AR feature that helps them know how bad they are going to look of they smoke — reminding them.

Another Interesting feature, If they smoke, their mobile is going to get off- stop working for an hour or two as a punishment!

Also, making it hard to delete the application.
