Section 1: Introduction (0:00 - 5:30) Dr. Valentin Fuster introduces a special issue on Prevention, covering societal and individual prevention aspects and key cardiovascular risk factors. He highlights issues like medication adherence, obesity, and the need for better education and healthcare systems. Section 2: Prevention in Society (5:30 - 35:30) Adherence to Medications The PURE trial shows low medication adherence (31% at follow-up) across 17 countries, despite technological advancements in diagnostics. Barriers include low health literacy and inadequate healthcare systems. Social Determinants of Health Social deprivation leads to worse cardiovascular outcomes, especially among sexual minorities in the U.S. The editorial calls for more equitable healthcare access and anti-stigma efforts. Environmental Factors: Aircraft Noise Higher aircraft noise exposure is linked to worse heart health, urging noise reduction policies for vulnerable populations. Section 3: Prevention in Individuals (35:30 - 55:30) Sedentary Behavior Even with exercise, high sedentary time (over 10.6 hours a day) increases cardiovascular risk. Reducing sedentary time can significantly lower heart disease risk. Intensive Lifestyle Interventions for Diabetes Weight loss and lifestyle changes improve cardiac biomarkers and reduce cardiovascular risk in type 2 diabetes patients. Section 4: Risk Factor Impacts (55:30 - 1:10:00) Hyperlipidemia & Obesity Hyperlipidemia and obesity management, including medications like semaglutide, play key roles in preventing cardiovascular disease. The 2024 ESC hypertension guidelines are also crucial in risk reduction.

JACC Associate Editor Xiaoxi Yao, MPH, MS, PhD, FACC, interviews author Shaan Khurshid, MD and Ezimamaka Ajufo, MD, about their study on sedentary behavior presented at AHA and published in JACC. Beyond serving as a marker for insufficient physical activity, sedentary behavior may directly affect risk of future cardiovascular (CV) disease. In 89,530 UK biobank participants, greater accelerometer-measured sedentary time was associated with higher incidence of adverse CV events. Associations with sedentary time were particularly robust for HF and CV mortality, where risk inflected at approximately 10.6 hours/day and remained apparent even among individuals meeting guideline-recommended levels of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity. Future guidelines focused on sedentary behavior should emphasize the importance of avoiding excess sedentary behavior, even among individuals who are active.

This week's EYE ON NPI gyres and gimbels through the wave. It's the latest LSM6DS 6-axis accelerometer + gyroscope IMU from STMicroelectronics. (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/s/stmicroelectronics/lsm6dsv32x-6-axis-imu). This latest update to the LSM6DS line is packed with features such as I3C, step counter, Qvar electrostatic sensing, finite state machine, AI 'learning core' and embedded sensor fusion so not only are you getting an IMU but a full user interface and sensor management hub. We've been stocking and using the LSM6DS series for many years: starting with the LSM6DS33 (https://www.adafruit.com/product/4480) a great low cost 6-DoF to the LSM6DS3C-TR replacement (https://www.adafruit.com/product/4503) to the fancy-pants LSM6DSOX (https://www.adafruit.com/product/4438). These are pin-compatible, and nearly-firmware-compatible sensors that are compact, sensitive and precise. In particular, what we look for in a good IMU chip is the gyro offset and drift. When making an inertial measurement unit (IMU) especially one used for orientation calculations, the quality of the gyroscope has a big impact on the jitter/speed/drift. (https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-sensorlab-gyroscope-calibration/comparing-gyroscopes) Accelerometers are pretty good quality these days, we've figured out how to make them decades ago. And magnetometers are not as important - they don't update often and are used for orientation correction. Gyro's have the most error possibilities. In general, the more you pay, and the newer the sensor, the better performance you'll get in the form of low offset and low drift. The LSM6DSV32X has similar gyro/accel characteristics from the LSM6DSOX and ISM330DHCX - although we'll note the min/max is not documented, just the typical values. And there's some ISM330 parameters such as Angular random walk and Bias Instability, that are not specified. That said, as long as you're good on calibration, and the specs are within your limits, the embedded functions are where the LSM6DSV32X really shines. Like many ST accelerometers, there's a built in pedometer (https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_LSM6DS/blob/master/examples/adafruit_lsm6ds_pedometer/adafruit_lsm6ds_pedometer.ino) as well as a tilt / motion sensor. The first is good for step counting, the second lets the sensor go into a low power state and set an interrupt pin when the device is moved or tilted to wake up the rest of the UI. The more advanced functions include a 'machine learning core' (https://www.st.com/resource/en/application_note/an5804-lsm6dsv16x-machine-learning-core-stmicroelectronics.pdf). We use that term lightly because it's more like a 'decision tree' where you can set up test conditionals post-normalization/filtering to classify simple motion states such as "running", "sitting" "lying down". These won't be as flexible as a true machine-learning algorithm that uses sample data to create a model, but you also don't have to spend any power or computation. Another advanced feature ST has been adding to many of their chips is Qvar electric charge variation detection sensing. This ultra-sensitive capacitance-like sensing can be used for human presence and motion detection, as well as touch/proximity detection. The eval board comes with a few Qvar plates for trying it as a slide or touch sensor as well as a 'radar' like proximity detector. (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/stmicroelectronics/STEVAL-MKI240KA/22522578) This could be nice to use if you've got a microcontroller that does not have touch sensing peripherals, since now you don't need a separate chip. The new feature we're most interested in is the "Sensor fusion low power" block - which can output a game rotation vector in quaternions, that gives the chip attitude (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orientation_(geometry)) direct from the sensor, without needing to continuously read/buffer/analyze the 6-DoF data. We'll note that there's no magnetometer, so it won't have 'absolute' orientation against the earth, but for many use cases a rough orientation - especially one that is self-driving and low power - will suffice. We'll note that for getting started, the LSM6DSV16X library on GitHub has examples for this and the other embedded features. (https://github.com/stm32duino/LSM6DSV16X) If you want to try out the new ST LSM6DSV32X 6-Axis IMU with 32 g Accelerometer (https://www.digikey.com/short/bhq3bwhf) or it's smaller sibling, the LSM6DSV16X (https://www.digikey.com/short/524744wt) both are available and in stock from DigiKey right now. Pick the 16g version if you're doing every-day motion sensing and 32g for sports / high speed activities. The eval board is also available and great if you want to start fast and also check out the new Qvar sensor feature (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/stmicroelectronics/STEVAL-MKI240KA/22522578). Order today and you will be ready to integrate the latest IMU into your design by tomorrow afternoon.
Lesser scaup are one of several duck species in North America that have experienced long-term population declines, and despite decades of research, the exact cause of this decline remains unclear. Because of its profound importance as a spring stopover site for migrating scaup and other divers, Pool 19 on the Mississippi River has played a crucial role in numerous scientific studies. In this episode, PhD candidate Cheyenne Beach and field assistant extraordinaire Jack Johnson join Dr. Mike Brasher to explain why so many divers show up on Pool 19 each spring; what we hope to learn from long-term banding of scaup, canvasbacks, and redheads; and how an ongoing GPS tracking study is helping understand how the invasive faucet snail may affect scaup health and productivity.www.ducks.org/DUPodcast

About the Miniseries: Welcome to our engaging podcast mini-series, "Data Analysis for Sedentary Behaviour." This six-part series is aimed at shedding light on the intricate world of data analysis related to sedentary behavior. Led by Dr. Olli Tikkanen, each episode explores a different facet of this exciting field, from data pre-processing techniques to the interpretation of results. By the end of the series, listeners will have a comprehensive understanding of the complexities and nuances of this vital aspect of health science. About the Episode Topic: In episode three of our mini-series, Dr. Tikkanen focuses on the interpretation of data obtained from different measurement techniques used in analyzing sedentary behavior. Accelerometer data and self-report data, two primary sources of information in this field, are unpacked with a keen focus on their individual strengths and limitations. Accelerometer data, which is quantitative and objective, provides an intensity measure of physical activity, interpreted using cut points. However, these cut points can differ based on the specific accelerometer used and the study population. On the other hand, self-report data is subjective and qualitative, gathered through surveys or questionnaires. While it provides insights into an individual's perception and experience of their physical activity, it can be influenced by several factors such as memory and personal biases. Despite their limitations, both forms of data, when interpreted correctly, provide a comprehensive view of sedentary behavior and physical activity.

Summary: In this episode, Dr. Olli Tikkanen discusses a 2023 study titled "Sensitivity and Specificity of Measuring Children's Free Living Cycling with a thigh worn Fibion accelerometer." The study explores the effectiveness of the Fibion device in accurately measuring the duration and intensity of children's physical activity while cycling. The results indicated that the Fibion accelerometer was capable of accurately capturing cycling activity, but could underestimate the metabolic equivalent of tasks (MET) during cycling due to interruptions like traffic lights or freewheeling.

This week's EYE ON NPI will get you designing IMUs #LikeABosch (https://www.bosch.com/stories/like-a-bosch/) with the Bosch Sensortec BMI323 Inertial Measurement Unit (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/b/bosch-sensortec/bmi323-inertial-measurement-unit). A low cost, but high precision 6-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU) that has 16-bit accelerometer and 16-bit gyroscope for quality output at a great price. This sensor comes with two sensors combined inside: an accelerometer (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerometer) and a gyroscope (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyroscope) - both MEMS sensors (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MEMS). Bosch has a ton of experience with making MEMS sensors - one of our very favorite sensors is the Bosch BNO055 (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/bosch-sensortec/BNO055/6136301) which has accelerometer, gyro and also magnetometer as well as a SAMD21 chip inside that runs a sensor fusion algorithm, which makes it great for projects that want to get going with full orientation data quickly. But you'll pay for that convenience: the BNO055 costs about $7.50 a hefty BOM cost. If you've already got a microcontroller on your design, say a Cortex M series or ESP32 or other fairly powerful chip with an FPU or secondary core, you can save a bundle by DIY'ing your own sensor fusion. You can even do some very basic orientation sensing with just a 6-axis sensor like this one, or if you want to also fuse in magnetometer data, the BMM150 (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/bosch-sensortec/BMM150/4196671) is a great mini I2C sensor that will work with any Bosch 6-axis IMU - combine with the BMI323 and for about $3 total you can have great 9-DoF sensor. Then you can use Bosch's Sensor Fusion Software (https://www.bosch-sensortec.com/software-tools/software/sensor-fusion-software/) BSXlite which comes as binary blobs for ARM Cortex chips that take in the raw sensor values and pop out quaternion (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quaternion) and Euler angles (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_angles) - you could probably request for them to compile it for another chip family like Tensilica or RISC-V if you like. The BMI323 has 16-bit data out for both sensors, and FIFO's so you will get quality data without skipping a sample. There's a full datasheet that goes through every setting and register for the BMI323 but if you'd like to skip the low-level implementation part, Bosch has been great for releasing portable C code support for their chips and the BMI3 series has its own github repo (https://github.com/BoschSensortec/BMI323-Sensor-API) with just about all functionality implemented. Note it's fairly 'generic' code, with Linux Kernel headers but otherwise without HAL implementation, so you'll need to port the common.c file to your platform (https://github.com/boschsensortec/BMI323-Sensor-API/tree/main/examples/common) to read and write I2C or SPI and add chip-specific delay. If the idea of a low cost IMU has you doing the twist or shaking your arms in excitement, the Bosch Sensortec BMI323 Inertial Measurement Unit (https://www.digikey.com/short/m33tnfdn) is in stock now at Digi-Key, with thousands of pieces ready for instant purchase. Order today and Digi-Key will package and ship your shipment instantly: you'll be motion sensing #LikeABosch (https://www.bosch.com/stories/like-a-bosch/) by tomorrow afternoon.

Announcement Related to the Rest of the 2022 - Irregular Publishing Schedule Dear listeners, So it happened that both of the podcast hosts became parents on the very same day! Recordings have been swapped to diaper changing and lullaby singing. This means that the Meaningful Sport Series will be paused until about the end of the year. Regular episodes and Practitioner`s Viewpoint Series will be running but with less episodes. Some of the popular episodes will be republished from earlier days of the podcast. Thanks for your understanding and we hope that the over 400 episodes so far will provide something to listen to meanwhile. We are enthusiastic about the podcast and grateful for all the positive feedback and support, it really makes our day. While we scale back we would still appreciate all your feedback and suggestions on who and what you would like to hear in the podcast as it will be returning to full swing next year. Have a great autumn all, Noora and Olli --- Dr Samad Esmaeilzadeh got his PhD in 2015 from University of Mohaghegh Ardabili, Ardabil, Iran. His PhD thesis was about finding agreement between heart rate deflection point (HRDP) and maximal lactate steady state (MLSS). He performed research studies about physical activity, physical fitness, weight status, cognitive function and depression in children and young adults. Currently, he is doing research at the South Eastern University of Applied Science, Mikkeli, Finland. -------------------- This podcast episode is sponsored by Fibion Inc. | The New Gold Standard for Sedentary Behaviour and Physical Activity Monitoring Learn more about Fibion: fibion.com/research --- Collect, store and manage SB and PA data easily and remotely - Discover new Fibion SENS Motion: https://sens.fibion.com/
This week's EYE ON NPI has great vibes, it's ST Micro's AIS25BA 3-Axis Accelerometer (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/s/stmicroelectronics/ais25ba-3-axis-accelerometer) a unique take on the classic tripe-axis motion sensor where data is streamed out with a TDM interface rather than I2C or SPI! We've never seen this kind of sensor but the idea behind its use case is kinda cool and is a great demonstration of using sensor fusion to cancel out or extract data from two 'directions'. Usually accelerometers we've covered on NPI before are used for tilt or motion sensing, detecting if something is falling or was struck. Another good use for this common sensor is vibration detection. You need very fast sensor reading but any vibration can be detected and sensed as motion and then integrated for displacement. That's pretty much what a microphone (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microphone) does as well, right? It takes vibrations in the air, then the displacement is converted to a capacitive measurement via MEMS (https://www.digikey.com/short/tt7qnddr) or current/voltage measurement via electret (https://www.digikey.com/short/9vdczd9n). So, what if in addition to measuring the air movement with the microphone, we also got to measure the vibration of a surface with an accelerometer? Dense surfaces will be better at low frequency measurements, and the microphone element will be better at high frequency. With a little filter work, we can combine these two data streams so that we get clear audio without the motion or air noise that often adds crackling, or overwhelms the analog front end. (https://www.st.com/resource/en/flyer/fllis25ba0218_lr.pdf) ST Micro's AIS25BA 3-Axis Accelerometer (https://www.digikey.com/short/3zrr4c8b) is the automotive-qualified version of the LIS25BA (https://www.digikey.com/short/c9bt59c0) but both function basically the same so choose whichever is best for your application. In both sensors, the configuration and test is still done over I2C - setting gains, offset, self-test, etc. Then data is streamed over a TDM audio-interface so it can be quickly funneled into a DSP or microcomputer that performs the high/low-pass filtering and merging. As demo'd by an ST engineer (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bi4NenlnR-k), the sound quality is greatly improved, kinda like a reverse-noise-cancelling-headphone. Particularly as so many more devices like cars are becoming voice-controlled to allow for advanced uses, and avoid mechanical components that can wear out or get dirty, having good clean audio input (https://www.st.com/resource/en/user_manual/um2824-getting-started-with-the-stm32cube-function-pack-for-acoustic-echo-cancellation-stmicroelectronics.pdf) is key to having a UX that is great versus one that is annoying to use. There's even a driver for the I2C side of things over on GitHub to get you started quickly. (https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/ais25ba-pid.git) Best of all, STMicroelectronics' AIS25BA 3-Axis Accelerometer (https://www.digikey.com/short/3zrr4c8b) is in stock now at Digi-Key for immediate shipment! Order today and your sensors will be shipped immediately so you can be noise-cancelling like a pro by tomorrow morning.
Join Helge Hornis and Cory Ockunzzi as they discuss vibration sensors and the inertial measurement unit IMUF99. Vibration sensors play an important role in machine condition monitoring by measuring normal operating conditions and informing the user when vibration changes and maintenance is required. Performing maintenance outside of business hours prevents the machine from shutting down during working hours, which can be very costly in terms of lost production, labor, and employee satisfaction. Inertial measurement units are widely used in the Mobile Equipment industry and other industries. The IMUF99 features a built-in gyroscope to measure inclination in 3 axes and an accelerometer to measure acceleration and rotation in 3 axes. The intelligent Sensor Fusion Algorithm combines the signals from the gyroscope and accelerometer to compensate for the effects of acceleration and provide error-free inclination detection during dynamic motion.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode: 2766 Do Wrist Mounted Pedometers Really Work? Today, an investigation.
We're inclined to think you'll love this week's EYE ON NPI, since it's the Murata SCL3300 Series 3-Axis Inclinometer (https://www.digikey.com/short/9pqpb9z3), a really unique and useful sensor that can be very useful for industrial and robotic applications. Inclinometers measure...incline! (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclinometer) That is, the angle of tilt of the sensor and the platform it's placed on. This is useful when you want to make sure something is perfectly straight or flat with respect to the center of Earth's mass. If a robot or piece of construction equipment isn't perfectly level, errors can build up and construction projects can end up with big flaws, gaps or repairs. Not good! Now experienced engineers (including ourselves, before we researched this part) may be wondering: wait, if you're measuring tilt with respect to the earth, why not just use an accelerometer (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerometer)? Accelerometers measure acceleration, and gravity is an acceleration force everything on Earth is affected by, so you can easily do some math on the number of g's measured by an accelerometer and convert that into tilt with a little math as shown by this detailed ST app note (https://www.st.com/resource/en/application_note/an4509-tilt-measurement-using-a-lowg-3axis-accelerometer-stmicroelectronics.pdf) So why have a special sensor called an inclinometer, and why does it cost much more? Well, accelerometers can be used for rough tilt calculations, but they're not really designed for it. They tend to be used for 'gross motion detection' like taps, jerks, big angles. For that reason many everyday accelerometers are maybe 10 to 12 bits of precision (https://www.adafruit.com/?q=accelerometer&sort=BestMatch) and +- 2g to +-16g. That's fine for motion detection, but not precise enough for minute changes in tilt, where only a few mg of change in gravity can affect the angle. So you can think of an inclinometer as a special type of accelerometer, with very low g rating, and very very high accuracy (how close the reported value is to reality) and high precision (how many digits you can squeeze out of the measurement) So for example, a common accelerometer may have, at +-2g a precision of 1mg per LSB, whereas the SCL3300 in inclination mode has a precision of 12000 LSB/g (which is 12 LSB/mg and 0.08 mg/LSB). The noise density on a common accelerometer is about 220 μg/√Hz, on the SCL3300 is as little as 15 μg/√Hz The temperature and offset stability are also going to be much better. Basically, its very very precise, but not designed for moving fast - that's what a high g accelerometer would be for! For detection of small changes, or small angles, the Murata SCL3300 Series 3-Axis Inclinometer (https://www.digikey.com/short/9pqpb9z3) will do the job much better than an accelerometer, with a simple SPI interface that will integrate quickly with any microcontroller or microcomputer. We especially like that the SPI interface has CRC and error monitoring, important for critical installations. And for such a precise sensor, the price is very good as well! The sensor is available on an easy-to-use eval board (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/murata-electronics/SCL3300-D01-PCB/11618562) if you want to start prototyping fast. Both sensor and eval board are in stock right now for immediate shipment from Digi-Key. Order today and you'll be inclinating (that's a word right?) by tomorrow afternoon.

We carry all sorts of accelerometers in the Adafruit shop - for many folks, a +-2/4/8/16 or even 32g accelerometer is good enough for detecting motion and tilt. For some rocketry and robotics applications, there's +-100 and +-200g accelerometers available! Sadly, today we learned that the ADXL377 (https://www.adafruit.com/product/1413) is no longer going to be made due to the process being retired. Let's try to find a replacement!

If you are a researcher who needs to track physical activity and/or sedentary behaviour this video should be valuable for you. We are going to look at different devices from many different manufacturers and their pros and cons. And it is not like one device would be the optimal device for all projects. Every project is different and there are many factors that determine what kind of device would be the best fit for your purposes. These factors include for example, who are your participants? Are they small kids whose wrist might be too small for big bulky devices? Are they elderly who might not be accustomed to use smart phone or even email? Do you need to provide participants feedback only after the intervention or already during the intervention? So, if you are doing projects which aim to behaviour change you possibly need to be able to give feedback right after the measurements. There are actually big differences related to this between different devices and this is something you might not remember to consider when focusing too much attention to specifications of the devices. One important factor is also, whether physical activity is main outcome variable in your study, or whether you just, for example, need to exclude that changes in physical activity did not influence your results. In the latter case, you might just want to have a device that just makes data collection and analysis as easy as possible. Do you need also accurate results related to sitting and sedentary behaviour? In that case, you want to consider a thigh-worn device as it is basically the only wearing position that can do posture allocation accurately. In general, wearing location is of crucial importance for any project. In my opinion, it comes down to compliance and accuracy. Many studies are using wrist-worn devices as people have been used to wearing watches, and a watch-like activity tracker is really easy to wrap around the wrist. So, it is easy, and compliance generally good. Then there are thigh-worn devices. Influential ProPass consortium is recommending thigh as a preferred location for accelerometers as it provides more accurate results than other wearing positions. This is straightforward as we are moving with our legs and not with our arms and in sitting vs standing thigh is changing its angle, which we can detect with a thigh-worn device. *** Glad to hear your opinions! What devices you are using in your research projects? What have been the pros and cons with those devices? What new features would you like to see in accelerometers/activity trackers?

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.07.29.227181v1?rss=1 Authors: Hernandez Barros, D., Heinilä, E., Muotka, J., Ruotsalainen, I., Lapinkero, H. M., Syväoja, H., Tammelin, T. H., Parviainen, T. Abstract: Underlying brain processes of exercise-related benefits on executive functions and the specific contribution of physical activity vs. aerobic fitness are poorly understood, especially during adolescence. We explored whether and how physical activity and aerobic fitness are associated with selective attention and the oscillatory dynamics induced by an anticipatory spatial cue. Further, we studied whether the link between physical exercise level and cognitive control in adolescents is mediated by the task-related oscillatory activity. Magnetoencephalographic alpha oscillations during a modified Posner's cueing paradigm were measured in 59 adolescents (37 females and 22 males, 12 to 17 years). Accelerometer-measured physical activity and aerobic fitness (20-m shuttle run test) were used to divide the sample into higher and lower performing groups. The interhemispheric alpha asymmetry during selective attention was larger in the high than in the low physical activity group, but there was no difference between the high and low aerobic fitness groups. Exploratory mediation analysis suggested that anticipatory interhemispheric asymmetry mediates the association between physical activity status and drift rate in the selective attention task. Higher physical activity was related to increased cue-induced asymmetry, which in turn was associated with less efficient processing of information. Behaviorally, higher physically active males showed stronger dependence on the cue while higher fit females showed more efficient processing of information. Our findings suggest that physical activity may be associated with a neural marker of anticipatory attention in adolescents. These findings have implications for understanding the varying results on the association between physical activity and attention in adolescents. Copy rights belong to original authors.

You can find a complete summary and link to this episodes research article at otovets.com/cuttingedge! Study Title: A new method of administering local anesthesia for calf disbudding: Findings from a comparative on-farm study in New Zealand Authors: Bates, Sutherland, Chapple, Dowling, Johnson, Saldias and Singh Objective: Describe and analyze efficacy of an alternative method for local anesthesia administration that uses local site infiltration of anesthetic over the horn bud. This study assessed differences between disbudding using the cornual nerve block and disbudding with local anesthesia administered by local site infiltration. Hypothesis: There would be no difference in the behavioral signs of pain and discomfort during disbudding and in the 3 h afterward and no difference in the lying and standing times in the 24 h after disbudding between calves disbudded under a cornual block and calves disbudded under the local infiltration block. Location: New Zealand Methods: We describe an alternative method of local anesthesia administration that uses local site infiltration of anesthetic over the horn bud. However, this method has not yet been scientifically validated. This study assessed differences between disbudding using the cornual nerve block and disbudding with local anesthesia administered by local site infiltration. Efficacy of local anesthesia was assessed at 30-s intervals after administration by absence of reaction to 3 consecutive needle pricks over the horn buds. Behavior indicating pain was assessed during disbudding and scored from 0 to 3. Calf behavior was also recorded for 3 h after disbudding. Accelerometer data loggers were fitted to each calf for 24 h before and after disbudding to assess lying and standing times.

Heat-Sensitive camera, person detector. Microphone, voice detection for powering off. Accelerometer, gestures, vibration sensing, predictive maintenance. Outputs: Screen for debugging Speaker for audio feedback as to what is going on. Relay control to turn things on/off, etc. and/or actuator. Connectivity: NB / Narrowband IoT. Wireless flexibility. Works with adafruit.io, of course! Power: Battery powered / low-power. Solar add-ons, energy harvesting, OK with lots of power sources that are not reliable.

We saw these ultra-low cost (20 cents!) 3-axis accelerometers on LCSC a few month ago and have been experimenting with them. They've got +-2/4/8/16g range, and 14bit resolution according to the datasheet. There's also tap & freefall detection which makes them a good alternative to accelerometers that are 2 or 3x the price. We have written an Arduino library to start, so far so good! On the PCB we're also experimenting with adding JST-SH connects, like Sparkfun qwiic boards. These have a regulator and level shifting so they're a little different but are compatible. https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_MSA301/blob/master/MSA301-V1.0-ENG.PDF #arduino #adafruit #sparkfun Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com ----------------------------------------- LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Adafruit on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adafruit Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe Join our weekly Show & Tell on G+ Hangouts On Air: http://adafru.it/showtell New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ -----------------------------------------

Ray Gowlett is a professional MMA fighter, motocross racer and research skeptic. His lab contains almost 600 subjects (it's a high school) and Ray is constantly seeking new ways to teach and coach. Many of these kids are high-level athletes; just as many don't want to be in the class at all. He's always trying new things, but this cross-pollination of students means every innovation has to satisfy two standards: 1. It has to make people fitter; 2. It has to make people happier. Sound familiar? Ray coined the phrase we repeat at Catalyst often: "Exercise until you're happy." It's the base of the hierarchy he teaches students. He also teaches research skepticism: how to read and rank the value of "research." Imagine a generation of people who believe what they read on Facebook: that's what's coming, except for the students in Ray's classes. I introduce this episode with the question, "Are we measuring 2016 results with 2001 technology?" CrossFit coaches are the champions of objectively-measurable fitness, and exercisers become addicted to having a "score." But other gym chains, like Orange Theory, are beginning to nibble at our lunch: giant scoreboards focusing on one correlate of fitness draw huge crowds. We can be defensive, or we can do better. This episode is the beginning of that conversation: how do we leverage tech to enhance fitness? Will measurement and feedback help us reach higher levels...or is it only useful to get clients in the gym more often? In "Coach's Confessional," I talk about the one of the (very few) mistakes I HAVEN'T made myself, but see all too often in struggling gyms: the "lifetime membership." It's a monkey's paw, and I'll explain why. My next seminar is April 16 in Charlotte, NC. Get signed up!
