Do you have the adventure mindset and would like to embark on an interesting journey across technologies? Suunto provides adventurers and sports enthusiasts with the best tools to explore and conquer new territory from the highest mountains to the deepest oceans – and anywhere in between.

Suunto’s Movesense is an open development environment for motion-sensing solutions. This easy and innovative tool accelerates measuring and sensing applications across sports, wellbeing, manufacturing and other domains. Core part of the platform is a tiny, sports-proof sensor that has an API for accessing the sensor data and memory for running your own applications. The platform also includes a connector that can be embedded to apparel or other gear to make them ready for smart functionality. Learn more at http://www.movesense.com/
