A bone exercise monitor is an instrument used to measure and analyze the quality of bone strengthening from physical activity and to help prevent osteoporosis with physical activity and exercise.
The quality of bone strengthening from physical exercise is very difficult to assess and monitor because of the great variability of exercise mode intensity and individual differences in exercise patterns. Monitor bone exercises using accelerometers in measurements and collected data were analyzed with a specially developed algorithm.
Bone stimulated by acceleration and deceleration, also known as G-forces, causes an impact on the body to stimulate bone growth by adding new bone and by increasing its architectural strength.
Bone Monitor Exercises are worn on the hip during daily tasks or during exercise. The monitor measures the acceleration and deceleration of the body and analyzes the results. Daily (and weekly) bone exercises are displayed on the monitor screen.
