SensorKit

The wearable revolution is among us and this startup has built an exercise, activity, and gesture recognition platform. It’s fashionable to have a wearable and track your activity but what are you really tracking? Founded by Ken Kruger and Houtan Fanisalek, SensorKit has built an SDK for developers to detect actual movements and specific exercises. The company’s first application using the SDK, Your Move, can track bench presses, squats, and rows, reps, sets, and resting times. The second is Kettlebug, a fitness tracker that sits on your Kettlebell. Catered towards developers, this startup is building the infrastructure for wearables rather than chasing trends in particular devices.
