After reading that a baby stroller (hope that's the correct, understandable term for the cart in which you push a baby/toddler around) will travel up to 6000km in it's lifetime, I figured that it would be great to track my toddlers stroller.
My goals are:
- Continuous monitoring of the distance travelled by the stroller
- Power efficient - my wife does most of the walking with my daughter and made it clear from the beginning that she won't change the battery before going on
- Smartphone & runkeeper integration - to amuse the grandparents, let's post the walks to runkeeper with our smartphones
- Long-term storage: Even when not using the smartphone to pull data, every movement should be logged and stored
- The system has to "reset" for a new activity to allow us to identify separate activities
