Wristband to alert the contact of hands with eyes, mouth and nose. This project received funding from [CONIF](https://portal.conif.org.br/br/component/content/article/84-ultimas-noticias/3463-resultado-final-edital-conif-n-01-2020-enfrentamento-a-covid-19?Itemid=609) for the production and donation of 500 units. The wristband is similar in size to a conventional watch. This device monitors the position of the user's hands and vibrates when they get close to its eyes, mouth and nose. Other functions included are controlling chewing time and monitoring sleep activity. In all functions, the wristband uses an artificial neural network to detect hand gestures. The bracelet is open source and all source code can be obtained from the project repository.

**Function 1: Avoid Hand-to-Face Contact**. The motivation for the development of this function is due to the habit of constantly touching our faces with our hands. This can bring all sorts of harmful agents into our bodies. A 2015 study showed that we touch our faces at least 23 times an hour [1]. Health professionals and institutions, including the World Health Organization (WHO), say this "touch habit" is dangerous [2]. Thus, a device that alerts the hands to the face can help people to reduce this habit that is harmful to health.

**Function 2: Control the Chewing Time**. Chewing food correctly and more slowly favors not only for weight reduction, but also aspects such as digestion, absorption of nutrients, lower risk of triggering allergies, health of teeth and intestinal microbiota [3]. Experts say that the nervous system takes about 20 minutes to understand that the stomach is full [4]. Thus, one way to be able to eat less is to take longer time chewing the food. This is the purpose of this second function: to help control chewing time.

**Função 3: Monitorar a Qualidade do Sono**. Esta função monitora os movimentos do seu corpo enquanto você dorme. Os dados apresentados pela pulseira são apenas um quantitativo do quanto você se move enquanto dorme. Mudar de posição várias vezes indica sono agitado. Se a pessoa se mexe muito, provavelmente não está tendo um sono restaurador [5].

**Function 3: Monitoring Activity During Sleep**. This function monitors your body movements while you are sleeping. The data presented by the wristband is just a quantity of how much you move while you sleep. Changing position several times indicates restless sleep. If the person moves a lot, they are probably not getting a restful sleep [5].
