**Development and Adoption of Sustainable GymTaps Patch for Impact Exercise and VAR Technology Integration**The goal of this project is to accelerate the development and adoption of a sustainable GymTaps Patch, which utilizes eco-friendly materials, boasts a long-lasting design, and promotes resource efficiency.To accomplish this goal, the project proposes the creation of an innovative, ultra-thin, lightweight smart impact and position tracker that employs Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology. The GymTaps Patch combines a 2-layer force-sensitive resistor (FSR), an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), edge processing capabilities for low-power operation, BLE for data configuration and extraction, and a rechargeable Li-ion battery within flexible circuitry embedded in silicon-coated reusable patches made from biodegradable thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU).Designed for impact exercises, sports training such as boxing and martial arts, and promoting engaging fitness routines with real-time interaction among friends, the GymTaps Patch caters to a realistic workout environment. A single battery charge powers the GymTaps Patch for up to 5 hours.The GymTaps Patch offers various attachment options, including Velcro or sewing onto garments or workout gear made from eco-friendly materials, such as recycled polyester or organic cotton. This approach supports sustainability by minimizing the need for manufacturing new materials. Moreover, the GymTaps Patch has the potential to integrate with virtual and augmented reality (VAR) technology in the future, further enhancing users' workout experiences.With its sustainable design, innovative features, and potential for VAR technology integration, the GymTaps Patch is poised to transform the fitness industry and contribute to a more sustainable future.

**Development and Adoption of Sustainable GymTaps Patch for Impact Exercise and VAR Technology Integration**The goal of this project is to accelerate the development and adoption of a sustainable GymTaps Patch, which utilizes eco-friendly materials, boasts a long-lasting design, and promotes resource efficiency.To accomplish this goal, the project proposes the creation of an innovative, ultra-thin, lightweight smart impact and position tracker that employs Bluetooth Low能源（BLE）技术。健身房贴片结合了2层力敏感电阻（FSR），一个惯性测量单元（IMU），用于低功率操作的边缘处理能力，用于数据配置和提取的BLE，以及可在可固定的可重复使用的PORTONE的柔性电路中可充电的Li-ion电池，该电池可用于硅胶的固定型（Themicon coby-co）。冲击练习，拳击和武术等体育训练，以及通过朋友之间实时互动来促进健身习惯，体育馆补丁适应了现实的锻炼环境。一次电池充电为Gymtaps补丁提供了最多5个小时的供电。Gymtaps补丁提供了各种附件选项，包括魔术贴或缝制在服装或由环保材料制成的服装或健身装备上，例如再生聚酯或有机棉。这种方法通过最大程度地减少制造新材料的需求来支持可持续性。此外，Gymtaps补丁有可能与虚拟和增强现实（VAR）技术集成，进一步增强了用户的锻炼体验，其可持续性设计，创新功能和VAR技术集成的潜力，Gymtaps Patch有望改变健身行业并为更可持续的未来做出贡献。
