Fabric Circuit Actigraphy

Basic proposal: create a wearable shirt / harness with sensors that allow for multi-sensor actigraphy. Shirt should be cheap, decent-looking and easily washable to encourage use and replication

Background info

Products that do actigraphy of various kinds:

• Fitbit
• Wakemate
• Jawbone Up
• Nike+ Fuelband
• Sleeptracker Watch
• iPhone sleep tracker
• Lark sleep coach

Hardware we might want to play with:

• Arduino LilyPad, a low-power, washable Arduino made for fabric circuits. Room for battery on-board and holes through which you can sew conductive thread to make connections. $20.
  • We own one of these, talk to Josh (it's never in the right place)
