Our group created a running band similar to a Fitbit and an Apple Watch that can track various statistics while the user (everyday runners) run. The difference between our tracking band compared to the competition is that ours will have an application that allows users to connect with one another. Furthermore, It also have a companion app that displays those stats in various ways (graphs, tables, ect.). The system uses a Bluetooth Module microcontroller to transmit data wirelessly to the companion app. The team worked collectively to find applicable ideas on what components are going to be used for the project. The running band includes a heart rate sensor that monitors the user’s heart rate and sends it to the user’s connected device. The band also uses an accelerometer and the user’s height to calculate how many steps and how far they have traveled in a given time frame. The app displays the user’s information such as their heart rate and accelerometer data. The user will also be able to connect to others through the app and see their data as well. The device outputs its battery charge level to a small LED light.
