In the pond the quantified self, bracelets connected type Fitbit and FuelBand can be practical to assess its regular physical activity. However, the data do not provide details on specific body movements. It is in this context that the concept of Notch has been developed.
It is a discrete sensor that will intrude into clothing to detect movement in specific points of the body.The aim is to address the motion tracking with a modular approach. The advantage of this mobile technology therefore lies its ability to offer more precision in its analysis through a combination of accelerometer and gyroscope.
The user can know exactly the body part that requires more work. Through a dedicated mobile application, the collected data can be viewed in real time on a smartphone.
In theory Notch must help athletes of all kinds to improve their movement. But we can also use it to monitor your posture at work. In addition, it can provide a haptic feedback of light emitting vibrations to correct the user.
Notch is currently at the prototype stage. The project will be launched soon on a crowdfunding platform for its implementation.
