The main concept of Parkinson smartwatch is to score your the severity of your parkinson status on the watch, like a diary.  To do so, all you have to do is tap the ‘rainbow‘ at a color which indicates your status. Whenever your status changes you tap it again.

It resembles a calendar: each bar is a day (8 days are shown in this example), running from 0 till 24 o’clock. The color of each part of a bar is determined by your choice at the “rainbow’. 

This figure shows how the continuous colors of the rainbow are transformed to bar-colors, using seven equal intervals.
