What would be the best monitor 2 get if UR obese??”
The bodybugg™ is the most accurate device on the market today for measuring calorie expenditure outside of a clinical setting. It utilizes a patented process for interpreting calorie burn called “sensor fusion” developed by BodyMedia, Inc. This process involves collecting a range of body-data using multiple physiological sensors instead of a single sensor, which is what other calorie estimation devices such as pedometers and heart rate monitors rely on. It’s this multi-sensor approach that enables bodybugg™ to “see” the wearer’s context (whether they are sitting, sleeping, jogging, walking, etc.) that makes bodybugg™ such a reliably accurate device for calorie expenditure estimation. The Physiological Sensors Here is a list of the sensors in the bodybugg™ followed by a short description of how they contribute to energy expenditure estimation. 1. Accelerometer – The accelerometer in bodybugg™ is a two-axis micro-electro-mechanical sensor (MEMS) device that measures motion. This motion c
