Wrist devices that monitor fitness aren't a new idea, but the bracelet sensor that Amiigo created might just be the most advanced yet.

Unlike other sensors that can track vitals, this one can determine what exercise routine you are doing.

It can identify over 100 different exercises actually, and can even allow for the information to be stored or shared, via companion iOS or Android apps.

Buyers can strap the bracelet to their wrist, hook it up to their phone and go for a jog or start whatever moves they want.

Amiigo even made it possible to update the database with custom exercises. Any personal routine will be detected that way.

The project can be found here. Amiigo has already accumulated more than enough funds to go through with its idea.

So can it tell if I'm spanking the monkey? Being serious. Not trying to be funny or nasty, though someone will inadvertently be disgusted by this comment. That's your own problem.
