I'm building an Apple Watch app which is controlled using motion. Right now, I'm looking for a way to keep the app awake without the user interacting with the screen. Any ideas?

On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch (tab) > General > Wake Screen - under On Tap, select Wake for 15 or 70 Seconds. Regardless of the setting and how the screen is woken, it is normal for the screen to sleep if you lower your wrist before it is due to sleep automatically.
Turn Off VoiceOver and Screen Curtain Both VoiceOver and Screen Curtain can make your Apple Watch's display appear black when they're turned on. Turning these settings off can often fix the problem when your Apple Watch face is black! Open the Watch app on your iPhone and tap Accessibility -> VoiceOver.
Up to 36 hours All-day battery life is based on the following use: 180 time checks, 180 notifications, 90 minutes of app use, and a 60-minute workout with music playback from Apple Watch via Bluetooth®, over the course of 36 hours.
The Sleep Focus turns off the watch display and turns on Do Not Disturb to reduce distractions before your scheduled bedtime.
As for now that is not possible. The watch will lock when the user is lowering his/hers wrist or after a certain amount of time.

You can't keep Apple Watch awake programmatically. You can change the end-user settings in Apple Watch settings app or in the Apple Watch app on iPhone, but there is no way to do this programmatically and with coding.
The screen will be turned off after a certain amount of time (which is adjustable in Apple Watch Settings app, or in the Apple Watch app on iPhone), or when user lowers his or her wrist. You can't do anything in order to stop this, because it is one of the main and core features of the Apple Watch, which is the same thing in all apps ever made for it.
