Headband would require constant wearing of a hat. I would prefer a belt version.

Same but with a belt, I don’t wear a belt as a rule.

This could easily be a Fitbit type device on wrist.

With the hat or belt, the device is aligned to the body. Wrist mounting would seem to add another degree of freedom. It could work, but the tech would have to be a lot higher.
