1. A system for improving performance of chest compressions, the system comprising:
a plurality of mobile computing devices, each respective mobile computing device of the plurality of mobile computing devices comprising:
a housing configured to be held by a respective user when the respective user is performing chest compressions;
a communication interface having a transceiver provided inside of the housing;
an accelerometer provided inside the housing and configured to measure a vertical displacement of the hands of the respective user to determine information relating to rate and depth of chest compressions;
a magnetometer provided inside the housing and configured to measure tilt of the respective mobile computing device,
wherein raw accelerometer data from the accelerometer is received via an application programming interface (API) and double integrated and combined with tilt data from the magnetometer to measure the vertical displacement of each respective mobile computing device, and
wherein determining the information relating to rate and depth of chest compressions comprises:
generating depth data associated with depths of chest compressions and rate data associated with rate of chest compressions based on the vertical displacement measured by double integrating the raw accelerometer data and the tilt data from the magnetometer; and
populating a data structure based on the depth data and the rate data; and
a processor provided inside the housing and configured to control operations of the respective mobile computing device; and
a remote server system provided in direct communication with the plurality of mobile computing devices and configured to send information to and receive information from the plurality of mobile computing devices,
wherein the system is configured to:
associate, by the processor of each respective mobile computing device, the information relating to the rate and depth of the chest compressions with the respective user of the respective mobile computing device;
send, by the communication interface of each respective mobile computing device, the information relating to rate and depth of the chest compressions associated with the respective user of the respective mobile computing device to the remote server system, wherein sending the information relating to rate and depth of the chest compressions comprises sending the data structure to the remote server system;
analyze, by the remote server system, the information relating to rate and depth of the chest compressions associated with each respective user of each respective mobile computing device to determine a proficiency level of the respective user;
compare, by the remote server system, the proficiency level of each respective user to a proficiency standard required to be certified in life saving activities, wherein the proficiency standard required to be certified in life saving activities is set by medical guidelines in terms of rate and depth in a target range;
provide, by the server system, an indication of whether each respective user of each respective mobile computing device is ready for certification, wherein providing the indication comprises automatically sending an electronic certificate to a first mobile computing device of the plurality of mobile computing devices associated with a first user in response to the proficiency level of the first user meeting the proficiency standard; and
issue the certification for each respective user to a third party organization or a third party provider by the remote server system.
