What are the sensors type for the SpO2 measurement? Does Watch 7 have the temperature/touch/pressure sensor to detect whether the measuring object is human skin? So as to activate the start of SpO2 measurement?

Hello What is the best framework for indoor geofencing (with iBeacons devices)? Would the SensorKit framework be any good? I'm trying to build an indoor geofencing app that uses UWB or BLE devices. I am thinking of the SensorKit framework because it is used for research and studies and I am looking for the best way to realize indoor geofencing (preferably using UWB devices). The app should also work while it's in the background. Thank you!

You can play around with the examples like Sensor arcade. But where is the function for the mushrooms popup? How can I create my similar project?

Hello, Im developing an application in health care topic. Im currently using Python + AWS for backend and react native for frontend. I would like to implement the connectivity with apple watches to gather information about day rhythm, heart rate etc. Is there any solution to gather those information automaticly using some type of scripts without exporting the csv files? I would like to have a simple interface to work with the data.

Hi, My middle schooler is working on a project for National Science Fair competition to estimate blood pressure from ppg signals. While he is using external database to develop his algorithm, it would be very useful to test it with real time data. I have a Series 6 watch and wondering how I can access my ppg sensor raw data.

Can we access HRV data in real time on watchos ?

Hi, We are a group of PhD student working on developing a health related app using SensorKit and AppleHealth Kit. We submited our research propsal on Feb 16 and have not heard back from apple support. We wonder that how long would be the processing time? Thanks,

How to download this file and fix safari browser when iPhone 8 is out of storage space… file:///private/var/mobile/Containers/Shared/AppGroup/3F4D1382-DC26-4CA5-8836-00458AE0A389/File%20Provider%20Storage/Downloads/39PIWDCm.download

To whom it may concern, After reviewing the documents, we realized that SensorKit is available only for the research study. I'm writing this email to ask two questions regarding the purpose of Sensorkit. First, Are you planning to open the Sensorkit for regular apps with a focus on health and wellness or it's going to be limited to only Research? Second, if it's going to be limited to only research, then what would be the goal of the app/research if we can't provide to everyone and scale the business (of course with user permission and consent)? I appreciate your time in advance and looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks, Mohsen

Hi All, I am writing a small App for Apple Watch 7 where I am interested in using the accelerometer, gyro and magnetometer. But it seems as we can only sample the accelerometer as I am not receiving any data from the others sensors. When running a similar code on an Apple iPhone, I can read raw data from all the sensors. Does anyone know how we can read the gyro and magnetometer? In the Apple Watch 7 Specifications there seems the part of the watch hardware. I would appreciate any help.

I am working on healthcare app that require ambient light of room light ,lux ,proximity data to calculate sleeping analysis but I am not able to get this data without using camera. I dont want to use camera for more than 8-10 hours but i want light data every mili second to calculate sleep data. How can I achieve this ?

After iOS 14, it seems to get Lux by SRAmbientLightSample. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/sensorkit/srambientlightsample But when I use this code: import SensorKit let lightSample = SRAmbientLightSample() let lux = lightSample.lux It always crashes at "let lux = lightSample.lux" I can find any usages from this document page, and also stack overflow. Please help to know, how to get Lux by SRAmbientLightSample ? Thanks.

Hello everyone, my name is Jens and I am currently doing my PhD in the field of digital health care. In the context of mobile crowdsensing, I am currently developing a library that will enable scientific studies to monitor sensor data from subjects' devices. For Android devices I have already implemented a so-called ForegroundService, which runs while the app is closed and also restarts itself after a reboot. For iOS, however, I have not found a way to implement the same. Is there a way to implement such a library? And if so, with what limitations?

Hello, I'm trying to create an instance of ARReferenceObject so I can feed it to my AR app, track it and do AR things like displaying something on top of the real object. For that, I installed the Scanning and Detecting 3D Objects project and followed the instructions. Problem is that I'm using my iPhone XS for this and results are pretty poor. In addition, my object is small (about 100 cubic centimeters) so I have this warning telling me : "the volume of the bounding box should be at least 500 cubic cm" My questions are : Does LiDAR is used during the scan with this project ? And if it is, do you think results will be much better considering the small size of my object ? If the answer is yes to both question, I will try to get my hands on an iPhone 12 Pro or 13 Pro. Thanks for your help, Axel.

I have been working with our entitlement to pull data off my main test iPhone (iPhone 13) just fine. I wanted to start testing on an older device (iPhone XR) and while I can see the paired Apple Watch as a device, the phone does not appear as an SRDevice. While I see iOS 14 is the minimum OS requirement, I don’t see anything in the documentation about DEVICE minimums.

Hi, I have read previous posts that the images produced by the IR camera/sensor can't be accessed by the developers. Does this still hold true? I am trying to make use of this to do eye tracking for users in sunglasses. https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/120712 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/99006 Thank you.

Hello! I created my own pass with nfc and want to test it on my iphone, how can i do that?

Is here any way to experiment the sensorkit Extended Entitlement using IDE+Simulator with developer account ( without apple approval) ? I wont be distributing the app.. its just for some personal experiment I want to check sensorkit keyboard metric for our understanding purpose . do we need any paid developer account for this and if I get paid developer account then is it mandatory to send research proposal form to apple only for just understanding keyboard metric.

Hey everyone. I'm pretty new at coding in Swift and am looking for some help coding an app for Apple Watch. All I want to do is display the data from the watch's accelerometers on the watches screen. Any help would be appreciated.
