OPPO has significantly increased the production and sales of their smartphone lineup over the past five years, shipping almost 29 million units in the third quarter of 2024. The company – launched in 2004 – shipped 7.3 million units in the first quarter of 2015. Despite considerable growth over the past few years, the total smartphone units shipped by OPPO in the first quarter of 2024 was not the highest. OPPO’s growth: Leading five vendors OPPO’s growth has seen their output consistently place the company among the top five smartphone vendors in the world, shipping around 29 million units in the third quarter of 2024. While many of those shipments were domestic shipments in the company’s home country of China, OPPO has gained a footing in international markets, accounting for four percent of the smartphone market in Europe. OPPOrtunities in emerging markets Many of OPPO’s smartphones are available at a lower price-point than the flagship phones of vendors such as Apple, giving the company opportunities in emerging markets. For instance, the company regularly appears among the top vendors in the African smartphone market. A key reason for OPPO’s success in Africa is that 97 percent of all phones sold in the region sell for less than 400 U.S. dollars.

We are publishing a walking activity dataset including inertial and positioning information from 19 volunteers, including reference distance measured using a trundle wheel. The dataset includes a total of 96.7 Km walked by the volunteers, split into 203 separate tracks. The trundle wheel is of two types: it is either an analogue trundle wheel, which provides the total amount of meters walked in a single track, or it is a sensorized trundle wheel, which measures every revolution of the wheel, therefore recording a continuous incremental distance.
Each track has data from the accelerometer and gyroscope embedded in the phones, location information from the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), and the step count obtained by the device. The dataset can be used to implement walking distance estimation algorithms and to explore data quality in the context of walking activity and physical capacity tests, fitness, and pedestrian navigation. Methods The proposed dataset is a collection of walks where participants used their own smartphones to capture inertial and positioning information. The participants involved in the data collection come from two sites. The first site is the Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, United Kingdom, where 10 participants (7 affected by cardiovascular diseases and 3 healthy individuals) performed unsupervised 6MWTs in an outdoor environment of their choice (ethical approval obtained by the UK National Health Service Health Research Authority protocol reference numbers: 17/WM/0355). All participants involved provided informed consent. The second site is at Malm ̈o University, in Sweden, where a group of 9 healthy researchers collected data. This dataset can be used by researchers to develop distance estimation algorithms and how data quality impacts the estimation.

All walks were performed by holding a smartphone in one hand, with an app collecting inertial data, the GNSS signal, and the step counting. On the other free hand, participants held a trundle wheel to obtain the ground truth distance. Two different trundle wheels were used: an analogue trundle wheel that allowed the registration of a total single value of walked distance, and a sensorized trundle wheel which collected timestamps and distance at every 1-meter revolution, resulting in continuous incremental distance information. The latter configuration is innovative and allows the use of temporal windows of the IMU data as input to machine learning algorithms to estimate walked distance. In the case of data collected by researchers, if the walks were done simultaneously and at a close distance from each other, only one person used the trundle wheel, and the reference distance was associated with all walks that were collected at the same time.The walked paths are of variable length, duration, and shape. Participants were instructed to walk paths of increasing curvature, from straight to rounded. Irregular paths are particularly useful in determining limitations in the accuracy of walked distance algorithms. Two smartphone applications were developed for collecting the information of interest from the participants' devices, both available for Android and iOS operating systems. The first is a web-application that retrieves inertial data (acceleration, rotation rate, orientation) while connecting to the sensorized trundle wheel to record incremental reference distance [1]. The second app is the Timed Walk app [2], which guides the user in performing a walking test by signalling when to start and when to stop the walk while collecting both inertial and positioning data. All participants in the UK used the Timed Walk app.

The data collected during the walk is from the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) of the phone and, when available, the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). In addition, the step count information is retrieved by the sensors embedded in each participant’s smartphone. With the dataset, we provide a descriptive table with the characteristics of each recording, including brand and model of the smartphone, duration, reference total distance, types of signals included and additionally scoring some relevant parameters related to the quality of the various signals. The path curvature is one of the most relevant parameters. Previous literature from our team, in fact, confirmed the negative impact of curved-shaped paths with the use of multiple distance estimation algorithms [3]. We visually inspected the walked paths and clustered them in three groups, a) straight path, i.e. no turns wider than 90 degrees, b) gently curved path, i.e. between one and five turns wider than 90 degrees, and c) curved path, i.e. more than five turns wider than 90 degrees. Other features relevant to the quality of collected signals are the total amount of time above a threshold (0.05s and 6s) where, respectively, inertial and GNSS data were missing due to technical issues or due to the app going in the background thus losing access to the sensors, sampling frequency of different data streams, average walking speed and the smartphone position. The start of each walk is set as 0 ms, thus not reporting time-related information. Walks locations collected in the UK are anonymized using the following approach: the first position is fixed to a central location of the city of Oxford (latitude: 51.7520, longitude: -1.2577) and all other positions are reassigned by applying a translation along the longitudinal and latitudinal axes which maintains the original distance and angle between samples. This way, the exact geographical location is lost, but the path shape and distances between samples are maintained. The difference between consecutive points “as the crow flies” and path curvature was numerically and visually inspected to obtain the same results as the original walks. Computations were made possible by using the Haversine Python library.

Multiple datasets are available regarding walking activity recognition among other daily living tasks. However, few studies are published with datasets that focus on the distance for both indoor and outdoor environments and that provide relevant ground truth information for it. Yan et al. [4] introduced an inertial walking dataset within indoor scenarios using a smartphone placed in 4 positions (on the leg, in a bag, in the hand, and on the body) by six healthy participants. The reference measurement used in this study is a Visual Odometry System embedded in a smartphone that has to be worn at the chest level, using a strap to hold it. While interesting and detailed, this dataset lacks GNSS data, which is likely to be used in outdoor scenarios, and the reference used for localization also suffers from accuracy issues, especially outdoors. Vezovcnik et al. [5] analysed estimation models for step length and provided an open-source dataset for a total of 22 km of only inertial walking data from 15 healthy adults. While relevant, their dataset focuses on steps rather than total distance and was acquired on a treadmill, which limits the validity in real-world scenarios. Kang et al. [6] proposed a way to estimate travelled distance by using an Android app that uses outdoor walking patterns to match them in indoor contexts for each participant. They collect data outdoors by including both inertial and positioning information and they use average values of speed obtained by the GPS data as reference labels. Afterwards, they use deep learning models to estimate walked distance obtaining high performances. Their results share that 3% to 11% of the data for each participant was discarded due to low quality. Unfortunately, the name of the used app is not reported and the paper does not mention if the dataset can be made available.

This dataset is heterogeneous under multiple aspects. It includes a majority of healthy participants, therefore, it is not possible to generalize the outcomes from this dataset to all walking styles or physical conditions. The dataset is heterogeneous also from a technical perspective, given the difference in devices, acquired data, and used smartphone apps (i.e. some tests lack IMU or GNSS, sampling frequency in iPhone was particularly low). We suggest selecting the appropriate track based on desired characteristics to obtain reliable and consistent outcomes.

This dataset allows researchers to develop algorithms to compute walked distance and to explore data quality and reliability in the context of the walking activity. This dataset was initiated to investigate the digitalization of the 6MWT, however, the collected information can also be useful for other physical capacity tests that involve walking (distance- or duration-based), or for other purposes such as fitness, and pedestrian navigation.

The article related to this dataset will be published in the proceedings of the IEEE MetroXRAINE 2024 conference, held in St. Albans, UK, 21-23 October.

Abstract

The Global Findex 2025 reveals how mobile technology is equipping more adults around the world to own and use financial accounts to save formally, access credit, make and receive digital payments, and pursue opportunities. Including the inaugural Global Findex Digital Connectivity Tracker, this fifth edition of Global Findex presents new insights on the interactions among mobile phone ownership, internet use, and financial inclusion.

The Global Findex is the world’s most comprehensive database on digital and financial inclusion. It is also the only global source of comparable demand-side data, allowing cross-country analysis of how adults access and use mobile phones, the internet, and financial accounts to reach digital information and resources, save, borrow, make payments, and manage their financial health. Data for the Global Findex 2025 were collected from nationally representative surveys of about 145,000 adults in 141 economies. The latest edition follows the 2011, 2014, 2017, and 2021 editions and includes new series measuring mobile phone ownership and internet use, digital safety, and frequency of transactions using financial services.

The Global Findex 2025 is an indispensable resource for policy makers in the fields of digital connectivity and financial inclusion, as well as for practitioners, researchers, and development professionals.

Sampling procedure

In most low- and middle-income economies, Global Findex data were collected through face-to-face interviews. In these economies, an area frame design was used for interviewing. In most high-income economies, telephone surveys were used. In 2024, face-to-face interviews were again conducted in 22 economies after phone-based surveys had been employed in 2021 as a result of mobility restrictions related to COVID-19. In addition, an abridged form of the questionnaire was administered by phone to survey participants in Algeria, China, the Islamic Republic of Iran, Libya, Mauritius, and Ukraine because of economy-specific restrictions. In just one economy, Singapore, did the interviewing mode change from face to face in 2021 to phone based in 2024.

In economies in which face-to-face surveys were conducted, the first stage of sampling was the identification of primary sampling units. These units were then stratified by population size, geography, or both and clustered through one or more stages of sampling. Where population information was available, sample selection was based on probabilities proportional to population size; otherwise, simple random sampling was used. Random route procedures were used to select sampled households. Unless an outright refusal occurred, interviewers made up to three attempts to survey each sampled household. To increase the probability of contact and completion, attempts were made at different times of the day and, where possible, on different days. If an interview could not be completed at a household that was initially part of the sample, a simple substitution method was used to select a replacement household for inclusion.

Respondents were randomly selected within sampled households. Each eligible household member (that is, all those ages 15 or older) was listed, and a handheld survey device randomly selected the household member to be interviewed. For paper surveys, the Kish grid method was used to select the respondent. In economies in which cultural restrictions dictated gender matching, respondents were randomly selected from among all eligible adults of the interviewer’s gender.

In economies in which Global Findex surveys have traditionally been phone based, respondent selection followed the same procedure as in previous years, using random digit dialing or a nationally representative list of phone numbers. In most economies in which mobile phone and landline penetration is high, a dual sampling frame was used.

The same procedure for respondent selection was applied to economies in which phone-based interviews were being conducted for the first time. Dual-frame (landline and mobile phone) random digit dialing was used where landline presence and use are 20 percent or higher based on historical Gallup estimates. Mobile phone random digit dialing was used in economies with limited or no landline presence (less than 20 percent). For landline respondents in economies in which mobile phone or landline penetration is 80 percent or higher, respondents were selected randomly by using either the next-birthday method or the household enumeration method, which involves listing all eligible household members and randomly selecting one to participate. For mobile phone respondents in these economies or in economies in which mobile phone or landline penetration is less than 80 percent, no further selection was performed. At least three attempts were made to reach the randomly selected person in each household, spread over different days and times of day.
