1. A method, comprising:
- detecting and recording movement of a human body by use of a motion detection component;
providing a visual indication on a display of an amount of the recorded movement of the motion detection component; and
communicating electrical signals from the motion detection component through an electrical contact, the electrical signals associated with the detected and recorded movement of the motion detection component,wherein the motion detection component, the display, and the electrical contact are included within a band formed to secure to a part of the human body.

Abstract
A motion detection component is operated to detect movement of the motion detection component. The movement detected by the motion detection component is recorded. A display is operated to provide a visual indication of an amount of the recorded movement. Electrical signals are communicated from the motion detection component through an electrical contact. The electrical signals are associated with the detected and recorded movement of the motion detection component. The motion detection component, the display, and the electrical contact are included within a band formed to secure to a part of a human body.
