Biometric sensor company, Valencell, is a leading player in biometric fitness monitoring technology. Their wave of PerformTek sensor technology is altering the ways in which fitness is tracked.
PerformTek devices offer high quality workout wear that doubles as a fitness monitor for recording statistics like heart rate, respiratory rate, running and cycling cadence, speed, distance traveled, and calories burned throughout a workout. Prior systems for collecting similar data were too restrictive; they were too bulky, and couldn’t perform outdoors or during physical activity.
