Some things I want on the same page…
Wired snip of text…
Approximations of how many steps you walked will no longer suffice as people demand accurate data from their devices – including wearables.
We have yet to see industry standards emerge to set manufacturer guidelines and advocate on consumers’ behalf.
I anticipate advocacy boards to be formed to evaluate devices and require brands to deliver accuracy percentage guarantees. Can you picture a label on Jawbone packaging with a
‘99.5% accurate gesture tracking’ guarantee
Dr. Saxe LAST yr
Two bullet points that Dr. Saxe had in his slide deck at Lindley mobile LAST yr.
• Lower power means you can add more sensors to improve accuracy
• Off-loading computation allows more computation to improve accuracy
Bob West
Accurate pedometer data is the foundation for fitness and health
applications, as well as a growing number of applications that’s used
with other sensor data. As such, pedometer accuracy is viewed as a
critical factor by many of our perspective customers.”
And
Andy Pease has had a personal first hand taste of pedometer and fitness
ineptitude. He owns and wears multiple Wearable’s. He’s been wearing them
for over a year. He pays attention to them. Their lack of accuracy is a real
irritant to him. 
He voluntary comments on it regularly. My view is it violates
his well-honed standards of integrity and quality.
Over the course of several quarters, he has made several comments that stuck
with me. I believe them have a directly influenced QUIK’s decision to enter
the Sensor Algorithm market. Besides data accuracy, they were:
Andy P. is spot on where it matters?, ie the same thought process as is stated in the Wired article that word  accuracy, accuracy, accuracy
does matter to the future of wearables.
+ Patent Pending
consider we can do this for many more important algos…like this snip
‘99.5% accurate gesture tracking’ guarantee
thanks in advance for hitting this benchmark QUIK. Andy P. and QUIK's focus on accuracy is what I want as  part owner of their biz.  It will pay off in many ways;
In the HUGE adjacent possible of Indoor location, in the margin that comes with such quality.

Keep it up QUIK. that  accuracy, accuracy, accuracy
