android : Tracking sleep mode from Band SDK without Microsoft Health Cloud API


Am currently using microsoft-band for my app development in android. I need to track my sleep activity in the app without using Microsoft Health Cloud API. In Band SDK, there are certain parameters such as pedometer, heart rate, calories burned and sensor data such as accelerometer and gyroscope can be obtained. Is it possible to track sleep mode with Band SDK itself ?

If i am not wrong, Walk activity and Heart rate can be calculated from band SDK itself. Whereas if i am not able to track sleep activity from band SDK alone. Then the better idea would be going for Microsoft health API right ? to track all the three (Walk, Heart Rate, Sleep).


Solution

  • No, the Band SDK does not currently expose a means of (directly) tracking the sleep state of its wearer.
