Data in Multiple Useful Formats
The Activ8 device offers a robust solution for gathering physical activity & sleep data in various useful formats. Activ8 offers summarized physical activity information utilizing advanced compression technology.
Furthermore, Activ8 facilitates the collection of prefiltered 1Hz data for up to 10 days, enabling real-world data collection in user settings. This capability expedites prototyping, fostering the development of innovative applications, particularly in medical, rehabilitation, sleep, and sports fields.
Finally the device allows the capture of raw 16-bit XYZ acceleration data at 50Hz for up to 7.5 hours, providing flexibility for varied data collection needs.
Activ8 PC application
Easy to use
The new Activ8 PC application is extremely easy to use. All data is stored locally, but with the device API Activ8 can easily be integrated in complete solutions.
Dataformats
Activ8 can store summarised data for long measurements, store rich 1Hz pre filtered data or raw accelerometer data. Besides activity recognition also strides (steps) and sit to stand transfers are accurately counted.
Graphs & reports
Direct visualisation of recordings or advanced reporting. Overview over the complete recording, weekviews to zooming in to specific events.
Validated
The activity recognition algorithms, step counting algorithms have been validated by multiple medical research groups to ensure the most accurate results.
Advanced Data Collection for Research
The Activ8 Physical Activity Monitor is designed to meet the rigorous demands of researchers by offering detailed, validated data crucial for clinical studies and health research. Its ability to accurately distinguish between various activities—such as sitting, standing, walking, and cycling—provides precise insights into physical behaviors, making it especially valuable for studies involving elderly populations or those with mobility challenges.
Seamless Integration with Research Tools
For professional users, the monitor’s open interfaces allow easy integration with other research tools and data analysis software. This capability supports complex studies requiring the combination of multiple data sources. Additionally, the device’s ability to collect raw data continuously for up to 30 days is ideal for longitudinal studies, offering in-depth analysis of activity patterns over extended periods.
Customization and Professional Support
Researchers and healthcare professionals can benefit from Activ8’s customizable options and professional support. Whether adjusting sensor configurations or integrating the monitor into broader healthcare solutions, the flexibility offered by Activ8 ensures that the data collected is both reliable and tailored to meet the specific needs of any advanced research or clinical application.
OEM Integration for Enhanced Software Platforms
The Activ8 physical activity monitor is designed with OEM integration in mind, allowing seamless incorporation into various software platforms. This flexibility is particularly beneficial in applications like the RISE intervention study, which focuses on preventing prolonged sitting. By integrating Activ8 into the study’s software, researchers can monitor and analyze participants’ activity levels and sitting duration in real-time, providing actionable data to encourage more movement and reduce sedentary behavior. The RISE tracker delivers tactile feedback through vibrations to alert users when they have been sitting for too long. This capability supports the development of personalized interventions to improve overall health outcomes.
