Is there a need for a nebulization guidance computer program?

When I was a child, I never used to focus much on doing my inhalations properly. I did them twice a day like I was told but the effect was probably small to nonexistent due to poor technique. I did know the correct technique but it was easier and more fun to do something else while inhaling and ignoring the effectiveness. Luckily, I did a lot of sports so it never really mattered but now when I am grown up I find it incredibly boring to do the inhalations effectively. It is possible to do the inhalations very effectively if there are no outer distractions but if I e.g. read my mail while inhaling this usually leads to very poor inhalation results. Since I study computer science I thought that I'd make a program which monitors my breathing while inhaling and corrects me if I do it the wrong way. I.e. a certain amount of air inhaled and exhaled at a certain pace and AD after a X breaths and pauses for the PEP etc. . I thought I'd make it into a computer game to make inhalation slightly less boring. Then I started experimenting with showing youtube videos while inhaling in this way. In this way I could do something slightly more meaningful while doing a pretty effective inhalation. To actually monitor my own inhalation I needed a spirometer so I contacted a company which helped me build a prototype. This program of mine is still in the prototype phase, but we are starting to wonder whether this kind of guided inhalation could be useful for more people than just me. I can thin...
