Garmin has been known for making GPS devices so it's not that surprising that they'd also go into the health and fitness market with the Vivofit smartband.

The Vivofit connects to your Android or iOS smartphone via Bluetooth and logs the activities with the Garmin Connect app. The package also comes with a Bluetooth receiver so you can also plug it to your laptop or PC and sync the band to the Garmin software and plot your activity and performance.
