InnoMind® Competition

Finalist Team – pe褲

In Hong Kong, people across different life stages are often internalized that “thinness equals beauty,” which leads to body anxiety, dissatisfaction, and extreme weight-loss behaviors such as excessive dieting or liquid fasting. At the same time, sedentary habits, poor eating patterns, and social pressure have worsened obesity, creating a vicious cycle. Existing body management products often overemphasize the link between appearance and self-worth, further intensifying body anxiety and reinforcing a distorted slimming culture. To address this, we decided to develop Hamster Fit, a virtual pet-based body management app featuring a hamster companion that helps users create personalized plans for fat loss, body shaping, and muscle building, while encouraging a healthier view of beauty and greater self-confidence.

Centered on a virtual pet-raising system, the app boosts motivation through companionship and reduces the stress of diet control and exercise. Through empathy and responsibility toward the virtual pet, users can gradually build sustainable and balanced healthy habits. The app also utilises AI to integrate data from multiple platforms and create personalized body management plans based on users’ age and physical condition. We hope every user can discover their own definition of beauty and become their healthiest and most confident self.
