Description
Personal health data visualizations from Fitbit activity trackers — steps, sleep, heart rate, and activity patterns displayed through the Fitbit dashboard and mobile app. Founded in 2007 by James Park and Eric Friedman, Fitbit pioneered consumer wearable fitness tracking and made personal health data visualization mainstream. The dashboard turns raw sensor data into charts, trends, and progress indicators that millions of users check daily. Google announced its acquisition of Fitbit in November 2019 for $2.1 billion, with the deal closing in January 2021, and its data visualization approach influenced the broader quantified self and personal health analytics movement.
