Motivations and Key Features for a Wearable Device for Continuous Monitoring of Breathing: A Web-Based Survey

Motivations and Key Features for a Wearable Device for Continuous Monitoring of Breathing: A Web-Based Survey

We found that young participants were more likely to use the device for exercise, but we do not know the reasons why older people were less likely to use such technology for exercise. This could be due to overall lower exercise rates in older people or to less engagement or familiarity with exercise tracking. Cost can be a barrier to the uptake of monitoring devices, but more than half of our participants would be happy to pay up to Aus $100 (approximately US $80) for a wearable that tracks breathing rate.
