For the first time we design eyeglasses temples and 3D print conductive lines and electromyography (EMG) electrodes on the temples according to personal head shapes. We demonstrate that the printed lines and electrodes provide adequate signal quality to acquire the Temporalis muscle activation during chewing. Continue

We analyse for the first time a unique database of over 2000 runners regarding their 10km performance in relation to anthropometrics, resting heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV), and training patterns regularly acquired over two years using smartphones. Continue
