Today is #WorldHeartDay! ❤️🌍 Every heartbeat matters. At LBI-DHP, we use digital tech to help people stay active and build healthy habits. 💪 As World Heart Day turns 25 today, here’s a challenge: move for at least 25 mins today — run, cycle, dance, or simply walk. Every step counts!

How can we make staying active more engaging? 🤔 Our research on Active Audio Adventures (presented at MuC 2025) shows that blending storytelling, gamification & real-time cues (like haptics) boosts motivation, lowers cognitive load & supports sustainable activity 🏃‍♂
