RMS of acceleration signal

I would like to configure my MetaWear sensor to only report an infrequent "average" (i.e. RMS value) of the high-frequency signal over a period of time.

For example, I would like it to record acceleration at a high frequency, say 400Hz, and calculate the RMS value over a period of 1 second, without reporting the intermediate values via bluetooth. Only the 1-per-second RMS value should be reported. I assume this would dramatically improve battery life, since the biggest drain on the battery is the radio comms.

Is this sort of thing possible with the data processing API?
