The authors employed MATLAB to develop the Raw Accelerometry Data Visualization (RADVis) tool for the examination of the raw accelerometry data collected with GENEActiv and ActiGraph devices. The graphical user interface provided enables efficient exploration of the acceleration signals without advanced computational skills. RADVis allows plotting of the tri-axial data, vector magnitude, and statistical summaries of the subsets of up to two different signals. Visual comparisons between the zoomed-in fragments of the signals are enabled via the drop-down menus and user-selected zoom-in parameters. In this technical note, we demonstrate the utility of RADVis on sample data collected during a pilot study of walking and car driving.
