pedometer
Hip-mounted stride tracker
A pedometer is a small device that counts the steps you take while walking or running.
It typically clips to your waistband or fits in a pocket, using motion sensors to detect each stride.
Pedometers became popular fitness tools for tracking daily activity, with ten thousand steps often cited as a daily goal.
Most smartphones now include built-in pedometer functions, making dedicated devices less common than they once were.
