Those sensors take 5 different “views” of your life:

Motion – The Armband contains an accelerometer, a device that measures motion. (Your vehicle air bag system has an accelerometer in it that lets it know when your vehicle is in accident).

We use it to measure how you move from multiple axes and perspectives, allowing us to better understand your activity.

Steps – We count your steps, using the accelerometer to measure the distinct patterns created by walking and/or running.

Galvanic Skin Response – When you sweat, your skin becomes more electrically conductive. This measurement help us see how active you are.

Skin Temperature – There’s an electronic thermometer inside your armband that helps BodyMedia FIT know how hot you are.

Heat Flux – When you move, your muscles produce heat. We measure the heat that’s flowing from your body into the environment.

Once we’ve gotten these “readings” we can determine what kind of exercise you’re getting, and how difficult it is for you. That’s important since your body burns calories differently than anyone else’s.

Our clinically proven algorithms crunch your numbers – pairing up sensor data with calorie information and presenting it to you via the BodyMedia FIT Activity Manager… so you know how far you are toward reaching your goals!

Overall, no device like this will be perfect – the human body is so complex and our actions are so varied. So, get The Lowest Price to buy BodyMedia Armband.
