The accuracy of sports heart rate sensors doday is near to the accuracy of ECG devices, which are the most accurate devices on the market, which is scientifically validated:

Polar H7 BLE chest strap, Polar OH1 BLE optical heart rate sensor have an accuracy wich is near to an ECG device, and the Stryd foot pod is the most accurate foot pod on the market, which can be seen in the above mentioned review.
These devices are very accurate, which makes them attractive not only for sporting activites, but also for biomedical and scientific purposes.
The problem is that Garmin does not allow an easy access to sports sensor raw data, which is not satisfying for biomedical and scientific purposess. An implementation on the Pinephone could solve these problems. And an implementation on the Pinephone could also solve the problems of people who had to deal with closed, unfriendly and ego ANT+ developers, as it is described above.
I put together a list of all currently available devices and tools for low-cost high quality pysiological sensors I know and which are of interest to me personally here:

I m not a professional software developer, and I m doing this review for fun and in my spare time, and it is non-commercial. It is diffucult to make money out of these projects, since only few are interested in these.
It is for sports men, yogis and scientists and all other people who love experimenting which such pysiological sensors and want to know what can be done with those. The Pinephone would be a great hardware platform for these sensors, and I hope to find new friends in the Pine64 community. Allmost all software is there, and it needs a bit experimenting and debugging of all the posibilties. I m interested on the long-term in this project.
