Using for a sleep study

[SocSciResearch]

I am hoping to use the fitbit for a small research project. I want to have each participant wear the monitor for five consecutive nights (only one person will be wearing it at a time). Will I be able to sync their data to my Android device or to the Cloud? Can I set it to automatically upload every 24 hours or will all of the data need to be synced at the end of the study?

Also, any advice on the best fitbit model to purchase would be helpful. I will likely buy two in the event one is lost.

Thank you.

The Fitbit would be able to sync as long as it is within a relatively close distance with a compatible device. You can have participants sync their Fitbit with their compatible devices and have that data accessible on your device.

@SocSciResearch Could you please upload the code you wrote for the sleep monitoring? I'm working on a similar project that utilizes the sleep scope, however, I've been having some trouble getting started. Thanks!
