Abstract

A wearable device for performing a plurality of functions including a first function to measure a body composition parameter of a user wearing the device and one or more second functions requiring aninput from the user. The device comprises a first electrode arranged, when the device is worn by a user, to contact the body of the user, a second electrode arranged to be touched by the user, a touchcontroller arranged to detect when a user touches the second electrode, a body composition parameter measurement device arranged, when the user is in contact with the second electrode, to measure a body impedance of the user by passing a current between the first and second electrodes and detecting a voltage generated between the first and second electrode in response to the current, and to use the measured body impedance to determine a body composition parameter.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to providing a measurement or indication of a user's body composition, in particular body fat and / or muscle. Background technique [0002] Recently, there have been tremendous developments in the field of health and fitness.
