Recognizing user activities using body-worn, miniaturized sensor nodes enables wearable computers to act contextaware. This paper describes how online activity recognition algorithms can be run on the SensorButton, our miniaturized wireless sensor platform. We present how the activity recognition algorithms have been optimized to be run online on our sensor platform, and how the execution can be distributed to the wireless sensor network. The resulting algorithm has been implemented as a custom, platform-specific executable as well as integrated into TinyOS. A comparison shows that the TinyOS executable is using about 7kB more code memory, while both implementations classify the activity in up to 18 classifications per second.
