Hello everyone,

 

my name is Michael, nice to meet you all! I am currently working on a research project and am considering to use the FitBit Surge for it as I would like to gather heart rate data in real-time process it on a PC or Smartphone and return interpretet measures back to the bracelet. I am not gathering from the product specifications if that would be possible. Can anybody enlighten, me please? 🙂

 

Best regards

Michael

Unfortunately, Fitbit Surge does not have the ability to transmit heart rate data in real time via Bluetooth to third-party applications. However, you can get the data via sync-delay (~15 minutes) using the Get Intraday Heart Rate Time Series endpoint.

Hi Michael,

how can you solve your problem? Do you find something that can transmit heart rate data in real time via Bluetooth to third-party applications not every 15 minutes but every minute? I am working on a project that needs this kind of information but I can't find a product that can help me.

Thank you so much,

Marco
