activAnalyzer

The activAnalyzer package was primarily built for working through a Shiny app. The procedure for using the app is explained in the related user’s guide. The functions used in this app can also be used to analyze data outside the app, as shown below.

Loading packages

library(activAnalyzer)
library(magrittr)
library(ggplot2)
library(patchwork)
library(dplyr)

Getting file

file <- system.file("extdata", "acc.agd", package = "activAnalyzer")

Preparing dataset

mydata <- prepare_dataset(data = file)

Getting nonwear/wear time marks

mydata_with_wear_marks <- 
  mydata %>%
  mark_wear_time(
    to_epoch = 60,
    cts = "vm",
    frame = 90, 
    allowanceFrame = 2, 
    streamFrame = 30
    )
#> frame is 90
#> streamFrame is 30
#> allowanceFrame is 2
