Measuring Stress & Recovery

Stress is a natural part of everyday life and contributes to the healthy and balanced overall condition of an individual. The Stress & Recovery values provided by the SmartBand 2 refer to a combination of your Heart Rate (HR) and Heart Rate Variability (HRV). SmartBand 2 analyses your Heart Rate Variability (HRV) and assesses how well your body manages stress levels during different situations throughout the day.

The SmartBand 2 can measure Heart Rate (HR) and Heart Rate Variability (HRV) even if the device is disconnected from an Android™ device. Data collected using the heart rate sensor is stored for up to 72 hours and synced to the Android™ device once connected via Bluetooth or NFC.

This product is intended to help you track your exercise and lifestyle. It is not a medical device and data from it should never be used to make medical decisions (like preventing, diagnosing,

monitoring, or treating a disease or injury) or replace the advice of a medical professional. Sony Mobile disclaims any warranty that this device could be used or suitable for medical purposes. Seek medical advice before undertaking a new or altered training regime using this device, particularly if using this device together with a pacemaker or other medical devices.

SONY SWR12 BLANC - Measuring Stress & Recovery - 1

Extensive use of pulse and stress measurement increases battery consumption.

Pulse measurement

Pulse measurement is the generally recommended method of determining your heart rate (HR), which can be a rough indicator of intensity of exercise. Pulse rate is expressed by the number of times your heart beats per minute (BPM). Although "pulse rate" and "heart rate" are two different concepts, the terms are used in the same context in this User guide.

Stress and recovery levels

Stress & Recovery is determined using Heart Rate Variability (HRV). The heart rate is never constant and the time difference between two consecutive heartbeats changes from beat to beat. This variation is called Heart Rate Variability (HRV). If the variation in-between heartbeats is high, this indicates a relaxed or recovering state. If the variation is low, this indicates stress.

Activities such as reading a book may result in low stress levels, or can even be tracked as recovery. For example, busy moments at work or school may result in a high stress indication. It is important to note that a stress reaction does not have to be negative; it may also indicate that you are experiencing something exciting or fun. To balance periods of high stress, you need to recover by relaxing and sleeping well. A medium stress level may indicate effortless productivity, which is common during work and social activities.

Recovery mostly occurs while you sleep. There are factors that can affect your recovery measurements. A physically active lifestyle, healthy nutrition, lower consumption of alcohol, and elimination of stress factors make it possible to improve recovery during sleep in the long run. Avoiding highly strenuous physical activities and "slowing down" mental activities well before going to bed also have a positive effect on recovery.

SONY SWR12 BLANC - Stress and recovery levels - 1

Stress & Recovery values provided by the SmartBand 2 are not a reliable source for analysing overall fitness. Low intensity exercises, for example, can be misinterpreted incorrectly as recovery.

SONY SWR12 BLANC - Stress and recovery levels - 2

To get an measurement of your Stress & Recovery, wear your SmartBand 2 for at least one night when you go to bed.

How the SmartBand 2 measures your pulse and stress

The SmartBand 2 uses green lights paired with light-sensitive photodiodes to detect the amount of blood flowing through your wrist at any given moment. By flashing its lights hundreds of times per second, the SmartBand 2 can calculate the number of times the heart beats each minute and provide an estimate of your heart rate.

Factors that affect pulse and stress measurement

Many factors can affect the performance of the SmartBand 2 heart rate sensor:

  • Skin perfusion. Skin perfusion - how much blood flows through your skin - varies significantly from person to person and can also be impacted by the environment. If you're exercising in the cold, for example, the skin perfusion in your wrist may be too low for the heart rate sensor to get a result.
  • Movement. Rhythmic movements such as running or cycling give better results from the heart rate sensor compared with irregular movements like tennis or boxing.
  • Skin pigmentation variations. Permanent or temporary changes to your skin, such as some tattoos. The ink, pattern, and saturation of some tattoos can block light from the sensor, making it difficult to get reliable results.

Getting the most from the SmartBand 2 heart rate sensor

Even under ideal conditions, the SmartBand 2 may not be able to get a reliable heart rate reading every time for each individual. And for a small percentage of users, various factors may make it impossible to get any heart rate reading at all. Perform the following steps if you want to improve the reading from the heart rate sensor:

  • Make sure that you wear your SmartBand 2 snugly, but comfortably on your wrist. If it does not stay in place on your wrist and the heart rate sensor fails to get a good reading, tighten the wristband.
  • You may need to clean the SmartBand 2, especially the heart rate sensor, after exercising or heavy sweating.

Measuring pulse and stress automatically

The SmartBand 2 measures your pulse and stress and recovery level about six times an hour.

Measuring pulse and stress manually

You can have your SmartBand 2 perform a reading of your pulse at any time, either from the device itself or from your Android™ device.

To get the best heart rate data when exercising, initiate the heart rate sensor a few minutes before your physical activity so that the sensor is able to detect your pulse.

! Notifications, except for incoming calls and alarms, are not passed to your SmartBand 2 when you measure your pulse and stress manually.

To measure your pulse and stress manually from your SmartBand 2

1 To start measuring your pulse and stress level, double-press the power key. The notification lights start to flash orange alternately and then together when the reading is complete. The results are then displayed on the SmartBand 2 and Lifelog application on your Android™ device.
2 To end the measurement, double-press the power key again.
If the SmartBand 2 cannot detect your pulse, it vibrates three times and the notification lights start to flash alternately in orange. If the heart rate sensor fails to get a reading, adjust the SmartBand 2's position on your wrist or clean the sensor. For more information on improving the reading from the heart rate sensor, see Getting the most from the SmartBand 2 heart rate sensor on page 11.

To measure your pulse and stress manually from your Android™ device

1 From the main application screen of your Android™ device, find and tap SmartBand 2. The SmartBand 2 immediately attempts to get a reading from the heart rate sensor and displays the results on the SmartBand 2 or Lifelog application.
2 To end the measurement, quit the SmartBand 2 application.

STAMINA mode

To reduce battery consumption, you can turn on STAMINA mode, which disables automatic measurement of pulse and stress. You can still manually start a measurement even while your SmartBand 2 is in STAMINA mode.

To turn on/off STAMINA mode

1 From the main application screen of your Android™ device, find and tap SmartBand 2 > Settings.
2 Tap STAMINA mode, then drag the slider to the On/Off position.

Smart wake up alarms

You can set one or several Smart wake up alarms in the SmartBand 2 application. The Smart wake up alarm wakes you up at the best time based on your sleep cycle.

The alarm notifies you with a continuous vibration. After you set a time frame for when you would like to be awoken by the alarm, your SmartBand 2 detects when you have reached a state of light sleep (after a period of deep sleep) and then wakes you up.

For example, if you set a Smart wake up alarm for between 06:30 and 07:00 AM, the alarm wakes you up sometime between 06:30 and 07:00 AM when you reach a state of light sleep. If you do not reach a state of light sleep during this period, the Smart wake up alarm wakes you up at 07:00 AM.

If you want to add, remove or change a Smart wake up alarm, your SmartBand 2 must be connected to the Android™ device.

Synchronising data with the Lifelog application

When your SmartBand 2 is connected to your Android™ device, data gets synchronised automatically to the Lifelog application. When the SmartBand 2 gets disconnected from the Android™ device, it can continue to collect data until the memory becomes full. It's therefore recommended to synchronise data between the two devices regularly to free up memory on your SmartBand 2.

Important information

Using your SmartBand 2 in wet and dusty conditions

Your SmartBand 2 is waterproof and protected against dust, so don't worry if you get caught in the rain or want to wash off dirt after wearing it for a period of time. But remember that the SmartBand 2 is only protected in fresh and chlorinated water up to 3m for a maximum of 30 minutes. Rinse the SmartBand 2 with fresh water under a faucet and dry the device completely after swimming. Abuse and improper use of your SmartBand 2 will invalidate warranty. The device has Ingress Protection rating IP65/68. For more info, see support.sonymobile.com.

Your SmartBand 2 has a capless USB port. The USB port must be completely dry before a cable can be connected for charging. If your SmartBand 2 gets exposed to water and the USB port gets wet, wipe the SmartBand 2 dry with a microfibre cloth and shake it several times with the USB port facing downwards. Repeat the procedure until no moisture is visible in the USB port.

Your warranty does not cover damage or defects caused by abuse or use of your SmartBand 2 against Sony Mobile's instructions. For more information about the warranty, refer to the Important information, which can be accessed via support.sonymobile.com.
