2Intended use
LightMove 4 is a scientific research instrument that captures the ambient
light, physical activity and other secondary parameters derivable from these
measurement signals. LightMove 4 is designed and tailored for the use in
research applications.
The Ambient Light and Physical Activity Sensor LightMove 4 is not a
medical device!
The sensor measures the physical activity of a person based on the
acquisition of acceleration in three dimensions and atmospheric air
pressure. Moreover the sensor also records the rotation rate and the
ambient temperature. The ambient light is detected via a color light sensor.
This sensor allows the measurement of illuminance (brightness) over a wide
range (darkness to sunlight), color temperature measurement and light
source type detection (enabled by an integrated additional IR channel).
The sensor configuration occurs via a USB 2.0 connection to a Windows PC
using the Sensor Manager software.
