Thanks for this post. Finally some technical content rather than a detracted thread discussing bias! Phew. I was not at liberty to post such information, however I tried very hard for the OP to understand what continuous and sampling rate means. Thanks again.

Just saw this interesting article about HR during sleep. Supposedly it does run low while sleeping and is normal. Source: HeartPoint: Specific Arrhythmias Also, this paper titled "Changes in respiration, heart rate, and systolic blood pressure in human sleep" has ranges of 34-42 during I-REM...

Sweet! It is awesome how sleep+HR data is being used for diagnosis! Technology for the win!

On any of the activity graphs, just click the graph and it will switch between HR and the other health metrics. It is a bit unintuitive and will likely be fixed if we all complain :-)

Thank you for a great conversation. I have no more technical comments as clearly you wish to play the argument game rather than a knowledge one and unnecessarily attacking on grounds of unfounded bias. I have been trying to tell you how continuous has multiple definitions depending on...

I will repeat again: It is NOT 1 measurement per hour! The graph that displays the data shows it that way. The band has smarts and it can do anywhere from many measurements per second to a few per minute depending on what it senses your HR variation is. In my daily routine, it turns on at least...

Technically, even a continuous video is 24 or 30 times per second. This same "continuous video" is insufficient for analyzing a car crash slow motion type capture while it is sufficient for recording a robbery. Why? Because robbers don't move faster than 30 times per second while a car does. So...

On android I have in the past set filters on what notifications (based on email accounts and senders) are pushed to the notification center. TO the best of my knowledge, most notification-wrist-devices and such depend on the phone's OS to tell it what a notification is. On my iOS, I pretty much...

How were any of this discussion biased? Band aside, all we discussed is what it means for a sensor stream to be continuous and to the best of my understanding the conclusion is you are right and so are others. For you continuous means X per second, while for others it may mean Y per second. Its...

Correct, it very likely does save all that data. Unfortunately as of yet I do not know if we can export it.

I would wear it where ever it is comfortable. The sensor is really designed to adapt. I personally wear it snug behind the little bump on my skinny wrist :-) Oh and the screen in on the inside of the wrist just because I find that comfy and better looking. Edit: Should also mention that it was...

This. Exactly. The band is quite smart and will start saving battery when it sees that you are not moving much. It has at its disposal many other sensors to make this decision. Pj737: Like I said, you are not wrong in interpreting and expecting "continuous" to be many or hundreds of times per...

Press the little button and it will cycle through various metrics when on the me tile.

Thanks for the info! I will look at Alpha too. Looks cool. For a RUN/Workout the data looks similar for my band. It is indeed high-rate HR data when indulged in an exercise, but *displayed* as an 1-hour in non-exercise daily activities and with no current way of exporting it. But maybe I am...

Could you please share which of the Mio does 24-hour per-second HR? I would be interested in trying it out as well. Thanks! Also I would find it really hard to believe that MSFT did not spend a bunch of time making sure their HR works as well as competing optical HR. I heard that their research...
