Description

Fogarty, Condell, and Leavey build LOTUS, a tool to process wearable sensor data. The EmbracePlus wristband tracks pulse, skin response, heat, and motion. Raw data rest in short time chunks in avro files. That layout saves memory but needs coding skill to merge. No easy tool existed to rebuild full time series.

LOTUS gives a point-and-click screen for that rebuild job. Users pick time spans and export Excel or Matlab files. The open-source code sits on GitHub for free use. Standard signal tools can then read the merged data. The authors plan more analysis features in later versions.
