Abstract
We present a pilot study, which investigates the role of activity data visualization in the context of interaction and communication with health coaches. The data is obtained from commercially available wearable wellness sensors such as Basis Watch, or Lumo Back. We studied how interface design's ability to synthesize and flexibly display data from wearable sensors help participants to understand their daily wellness related physical condition and activities. We also investigated how the interface enhances the communication between users and their health coaches. We discuss the implications for the design.
