Commercially developed wearable sensors

Table 8.4 Commercially developed wearable sensors for sports... 

The measurement of physiological parameters, or body responses (Table 8.2), is one of the most common functions for wearable sensors. Developments in this area closely follow advances in the medical and telemedicine fields. For sports, the main reason for measuring how the body is performing is to support training and, in particular, fitness development. Among the parameters highlighted in Table 8.2, most have found a way into commercial products (covered in Section 8.5), with the exception of sweat measurement and analysis.
