> Fitbit Sense 2 was used to measure BIA on the wrist. It implements a 4-wire sensing mechanism using a 50kHz excitation frequency and utilizes two bottom electrodes, two top electrodes, and TI’s AFE4500 chip.
... huh I wasn't aware that fitbit offered wrist-based BIA? And I've heard that systems that have sensors across a long path in your body are better (e.g. foot and hand contacts)? But most confusing, the specs for Fitbit Sense 2 [1] don't say anything about BIA, just cEDA. I'm not an expert by any means, but google's own AI tells me that EDA sensors cannot be used for BIA. So did they basically use an especially low quality BIA measurement?
