The MotionWatch is the next generation of actigraph from CamNtech, inventors of the Actiwatch. Following discontinuation of the Actiwatch 4 and 7, CamNtech has utilised advances in accelerometer technology to produce the MotionWatch 8 with a tri-axial digital accelerometer. The activity plots coupled with specialised software can be used to quantify the intensity and duration of daily physical activity. This data can be used for a wide variety of applications e.g. as an indicator of a particular lifestyle, to monitor the effects on mobility of a medical condition or efficacy of its treatment, or to identify irregular activity patterns for assesment of sleep quality.
