Jawbone UP Band – tracks activity and sleep patterns. Users can also manually log workouts, food intake, and moods, and set an alarm to ensure movement throughout the day. The info collected seemed accurate, but there is a certain amount of error when it comes to wrist movement. Food intake, to calculate calories in and out, will only be as accurate as the user who is entering the info.
Nike+ Fuelband SE – focuses on activity versus an overall view. The band tracks movements and activity. Users can track specific activities by creating “sessions,” which are available on the app. There isn’t too much “coaching”, but there is motivation in the trophies that provide an element of gamification.
FitBit and FitBit Flex – tracks steps, miles, calories burned, and active minutes. Manual data, that can be stored and showed, includes pounds lost, sleep patterns, food plan, caloric intake and water intake. There is also an opportunity to add friends, goals, and set alarms.
Basis – The Basis collects the most amount and detailed information. It tracks: activity in steps, heart rate, perspiration, body temperature and caloric burn. It has a lot of potential. This product can really help individuals get a handle on their personal body data and could be a step toward personal preventative healthcare.
