How do I even manufacture a device ?

Hello All,

I am a newbie to the field and I am kind off intrigued on how people
manfucture small electronic devices. That is, say, I have an idea: to
make a "calculator" kind of device that can take the amount of time you
run as an input and gives the calories burnt as output.

How would I manufacture such a device ? Do I write a computer program,
give it to some manufacturer (say, in China) or should I sit and
design the hardware blocks ??

Any help would be greatly appreciated (I am kind of really curious :))

thanks
srini
