Monitoring fitness using a mobile device

This invention describes a mobile app designed to track and visualize a user's athletic activity, specifically running. It uses sensor data, including geographic location, to generate a map of the running route. The app then visually distinguishes parts of the route that have been traversed from those that haven't, for example, by changing the line thickness, and animates a user icon along the route at a pace that reflects the user's actual speed.

Why it matters: Mobile device processing power and mapping SDKs have significantly advanced since 2017, making real-time, detailed map visualizations and dynamic UI animations, as described in the claims, much smoother and easier to implement.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: ModerateMobile app, sensor integration, custom map rendering
