| The project consists of the design and implementation of a wearable embedded system for monitoring running activity, with the primary objective of accurately estimating the distance traveled by the user. Inspired by commercial fitness tracking applications such as Strava, the project aims to evaluate how closely a similar level of functionality and accuracy can be achieved using low-cost hardware and a resource-constrained platform. | The project consists of the design and implementation of a wearable embedded system for monitoring running activity, with the primary objective of accurately estimating the distance traveled by the user.

| Beyond its technical objectives, the system is also designed as a practical alternative to smartphone-based tracking, allowing the user to monitor running activity without relying on a mobile device, which may be inconvenient or prone to damage during physical activity. At the same time, the project serves as an exploration of the trade-offs between cost, hardware limitations, and performance, providing insight into how closely a low-budget embedded solution can approximate the behavior of commercial-grade systems. | Beyond its technical objectives, the system is also designed as a practical alternative to smartphone-based tracking, allowing the user to monitor running activity without relying on a mobile device, which may be inconvenient or prone to damage during physical activity.
