The Apple Watch Ultra or Garmin Fenix ​​7 are perfect for this. The Ultra offers accurate location tracking for activities like hiking, running, and swimming thanks to its GPS and gyroscope sensors, and it also has fall detection for safety. The Fenix ​​7 supports not only GPS but also GLONASS and Galileo, allowing it to accurately track elevation during mountaineering and hiking, making it a great choice for the outdoors.

Then I recommend the Polar Vantage M2 or the WHOOP Strap 4.0. Both use accelerometers and gyroscopes to analyze movement data during exercise, and WHOOP tracks sleep and recovery, which is especially helpful for optimizing your training.

For this purpose, the Oculus Quest 2 and Sony Mocopi are good. Quest 2 tracks head movements and orientation in real-time in 3D space, providing an immersive VR experience. Mocopi uses full-body motion capture, allowing for realistic human movement when creating games or animations.
