This is a sock that got turned into a bicep curl tracker. It has a motion sensor as well as a speaker embedded into it. By reading the sensor data, it is able to determine when a rep gets performed and when it does, it means a ping noise.

 

If I had more time, I would make it more aesthetically pleasing. The wires are kinda ugly and I had to use tape on some areas around the sock to make sure nothing gets shorted out.  Also, I think this is something I want to carry into my final project.  I want to eventually hook up the data to a mobile device and let it record the number of reps you perform so you could track it.
