For most physical activity researchers, physical activity data collection is one  of the most frustrating steps of a research project. 

Especially because of the inefficient and lengthy data collection techniques that can easily derail your progress and put you through a nightmare. 
  
This is why we devised a revolutionary new way to collect data. Introducing Fibion SENS Motion, the beginning of a new era. Fibion SENS Motion is a cutting-edge, next-generation system that empowers you to digitally collect data, easily transmit it, and store it more securely.
 
Our solution features a waterproof device that captures the physical activity data, a mobile app for consolidating the data from the device, and a cloud service for managing the data. 

Even better, all collected data is GDPR compliant and you get access to automatically analyzed variables of activity types and raw 3-axis accelerometer data. 

Don’t compromise on the quality of your research or the project timeframes. Discover the convenience and power behind our solution at sens.fibion.com.

Physical activity data collection is important part of a research project but it can also be very challenging part. Accelerometers for physical activity for research are often not the easiest to use. Fibion SENS provides great alternative for Actigraph and ActivPAL as it provides cloud platform for data collection and management.  

Accelerometers have become an increasingly popular tool for the objective assessment of physical activity (PA). There are several hip- and thigh-worn accelerometers that are commonly used in research projects (for example ActivPAL3, ActivPAL4, Actigraph wGT3X, Actigraph GT9X). Currently, accelerometers are used both for laboratory experiments and in a free-living environment. The latter is recognized as particularly beneficial to studies considering the evaluation of human behavior. In early free-living studies, accelerometers were typically located close to the center of body mass, e.g., on the waist, hip or lower back. However, recent large cohort studies,  used sensors placed on a wrist following suggestions that this body placement improves wear compliance, particularly among younger participants and during prolonged measurements.
