“Activity Tracking” Using MATLAB Mobile
and Arduino Platform

Introduction

Companies like Apple, Android and Fitbit have created wearable devices that are able to be used
as a fitness/activity trackers that track metrics such as distance walked or run, calories consumed,
and heart rate. The World Health Organization recommends that adults aged 18–64 should do at
least 150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity aerobic physical activity or at least 75 minutes
of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity throughout the week to reduce the risk of chronic
diseases and depression (World Health Organization, 2015). The push for these tracking devices
provides motivation for individuals to meet their recommended daily physical activity. This
results in a decrease of health issues within the population.
Many products on the market are attempting to promote healthy living by including some of
these tracking features. Products such as the Fitbit and Apple Watch provide simple ways for one
to track their daily activities. Fitbit can count your number of steps, it can tell how vigorous your
motions are and it counts calories. However, it cannot tell what type of activity is being done and
it also has major limitations as to what can be inputted from the mobile app. The Apple Watch
seems to be more like a smartwatch as it learns a person’s normal ranges such as heart rate and
normal activity.
This project attempts to create a prototype that can accurately measure a person’s activity using a
Matlab code to translate the data and an Arduino platform to provide an LED display. Matlab
provides a great interface between the desktop and mobile application.
Methods
When starting out, our group began by figuring out how to connect the cell phone with the Matlab
software using the function “m=mobiledev”. The Matlab mobile app has multiple sensors
(acceleration, magnetic field, and angular velocity) in which measure data. The data utilized from
the sensors specifically for this project was accelerations in all directions (x,y,z). The Arduino
board was manually wired to contain four LEDs (3 red and 1 green) and a push button (See Figure
1). When an Arduino board is connected to the computer, the user will have a visual to the progress
they have made...
