Energy Expenditure

In addition to its ability to record and analyze gait data, the IDEEA^® LifeGait^TM System can identify more than 40 specific physical activities and estimate the expended energy with a clinically validated accuracy of over 96%. There is, simply, no other instrument in the world with similar abilities.

Energy expenditure measurement is very important for a number of researches. The LifeGait^TM System can measure energy expenditure continuously on a second-by-second basis in free-living conditions, for up to seven days.

Designed for quantifying physical activity and body motion analysis, the LifeGait^TM System can compute the power, mechanical work and distributions of power output for different activity types (ADL). You can select different measurement units such as watt or Kcal/minute, KJ or calories as you wish.
