Rob ter Horst tested 100 smartwatches – what we miss from Rob & the sports watch reviewers

We are very disappointed that Rob ter Horst does not support us, and test our sensors as well:

We are very disappointed that Rob does not publish his testing protocols. So it is not possible to reproduce his tests. Or is this eventually his goal?

We are very disappointed that there seems no one who tests optical heart rate monitors in scientific papers with clearly defined testing protocols on a regular basis..This has only been been done for chest straps, as far as we know, which cannot be worn 24 * 7 comfortably. Optical heart rate monitors are comfortable to wear, but we miss convincing scientific long-term studies which are sustainable, so that the also can be used for scientific studies.
