Barometer/Pressure sensor (for floor count)
#2
The electronics side is pretty easy. I2C comes out on test points and several ribbon connectors (meaning in principle you could make a custom board to add a sensor that clips in between the main board and the heart rate monitor).

However even if you take the "easy" option and solderthe I2C wires to the test points the mechanical side will still be a bit tricky, both finding somewhere to put the sensor and ensuring the wires don't rip off the test pads.

So, definitely possible and it has terrific hack value! Perhaps the best bet would be to 3D print an alternative back?
