The victory was won by the OUTEX startup team, which presented an innovative project and received a financial reward.

"Outex is an application for sports and rehabilitation based on artificial intelligence. Thanks to a neural network, it determines key points on the body, analyzes the user's movements, and assesses the correctness of the exercises. If the movements are inaccurate, the system gives an audible signal. After each workout, the user receives a report on calories burned, duration, and effectiveness of the workout. In addition, Outex creates individual training plans," the winner, Yuliia Tkachenko, said about her project.

The demo version of the application is being tested and prepared for use with real users. It will be available to everyone soon.
