I had an idea.. fitness wearable to help CF in all ways

So I think using some software, some sensors -> specifically the newer technology out (sensors) we can make fitness bands that are specific to CF (but could help others!). And the best part is, I think if we can measure and interpret the data correctly, we can provide CF users with accurate information based on the sensors, which can help improve the quality of life (or help us predict potential failing points in our body). The technology is limited (i don't think it can predict PFTS... yet), but it's just an idea that we may be able to exploit the new sensors that are being introduced into society for our benefit as a CFr. Here's what I got so far on this idea: Generalizations: -Fitness wearables are steadily increasing in tech, and I think it can help us manage our life with CF -I think with the right data, you can predict when your body is "losing" the CF fight, which could help with intake of more nutrients and increase of treatments -Fitness wearables aren't THAT expensive -The tech is there, the data is not. Background: I've been doing a lot of reading tonight on the Bioimpedance sensors included in the UP3 fitness bands. These bands are new (and so is the tech) and I think we can utilize them to help us make informed decisions based on our data (compiled over time). I think this because the sensors can measure different variations in Oxygen in your blood by measuring and manipulating the electric energy in our system. I think if we used sensors in key l...
