Vibrotactile device for resting metabolic rate
This study tests a new wearable device that uses gentle vibrations (vibrotactile technology) to see if it can change your resting metabolic rate — the number of calories your body burns at rest. It may help with weight management or metabolism.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
