How can I calculate cut points with RT6 accelerometer to evaluate physical activity?

11 June 2019 1 7K Report

I would like to find out how to calculate the cut-points of accelerometer measurement with RT6 device to determine physical activity levels of older adults.

Loretta Anderson

Dear Metin, I haven't conducted research with the RT6 myself, but there are some research papers that have investigated the cut points for physical activity using RT6. This abstract may be helpful. You may need to contact the authors for more information.
