Summary

The aim of this study was to find functions for estimating energy expenditure in free-living conditions. This method was based on accelerometry data acquired from a smartphone worn in a trouser pocket. The developed functions have been compared to the estimations provided by two research devices named Armband and Actiheart.

Conditions

  • Accelerometry

Interventions

DEVICE

Energy expenditure estimation in controlled conditions

Volunteers were asked to perform several activities such as walking at different paces, running, sitting, standing still or taking public transportation for about 3h30 They wore 2 research sensors that estimate energy expenditure: Armband and Actiheart. They also wore a smartphone (in a front pant pocket) that collected accelerometry data.

DEVICE

Energy expenditure estimation in free-living conditions

Volunteers were asked to wear sensors during about 12 hours, one day. They wore 2 research sensors that estimate energy expenditure: Armband and Actiheart. They also wore a smartphone (in a front pant pocket) that collected accelerometry data.
