Project Description & Objectives

Evaluation of Garmin Smartwatch to estimate the phase of the biological clock.

Data Collection Process

Participants wear the Garmin 24/7 for two weeks in their home environment. We instructed them to synchronize to the Fitrockr platform every day. Researchers monitored data completeness and participants compliance. After a subset of participants finished their research period, we downloaded the data from the platform and stored it locally.

Fitrockr Utilization

We used Fitrockr’s ability to push custom settings to Garmin devices. We used Fitrockr as a Garmin Connect replacement. We used Fitrockr to collect the data and download it from the platform.
