1. A wearable apparatus having an adjustable sampling rate, comprising:
at least one sensor configured to measure at least one property associated with a user of the wearable apparatus;
at least one memory storing measurements from the at least one sensor and instructions;
at least one transmitter configured to send data to a device external from the wearable apparatus;
at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to perform operations comprising:
determining an available capacity of the at least one memory;
receiving, from the external device in communication with the wearable apparatus, a signal strength, wherein the signal strength is based on at least one of a speed of data transfer or packet loss;
sending a command to the at least one transmitter to operate in a low-power mode or a high-power mode based on the received signal strength and the determined available capacity of the at least one memory;
when the command is to operate in the low-power mode, sending a command to the at least one sensor to operate at a first sampling rate; and
when the command is to operate in the high-power mode, sending a command to the at least one sensor to operate at a second sampling rate.
