Computing devices and methods for controlling light output of a display are disclosed. In one example, a default brightness setting is set to an indoor light output level. A UV light sensor is activated to detect UV radiation levels. Based on determining that one or more of the UV radiation levels exceed a UV threshold, the default brightness setting is updated to correspond to an outdoor light output level that is greater than the indoor light output level. Without using information from an ambient light sensor, the display is activated from a deactivated state to illuminate at the updated default brightness setting corresponding to the outdoor light output level.

In some implementations, a user device can assist a user with intelligent blood pressure monitoring. For example, the user device can present notifications and/or reminders that prompt the user to take blood pressure measurements at a prescribed time or according to a prescribed schedule. The user device can automatically determine that the user should or should not take a blood pressure measurement based on the user's context and suggest an alternative time for taking the blood pressure measurement. For example, the user's context can include the user's physical and/or psychological state inferred based on sensor data, application data, and/or other detectable information. In some implementations, the user device can automatically monitor the user's blood pressure and take blood pressure measurements based on user context triggers.

A blood pressure measurement module includes a base, a valve plate, a top cover, a micro pump, a driving circuit board, and a pressure sensor. The valve plate is disposed between the base and the top cover. The micro pump is in the base. The pressure sensor is disposed on the driving circuit board. An inlet channel of the top cover and the pressure sensor are connected to a gas bag. The micro pump operates to inflate the gas bag to press the skin of a user. The pressure sensor detects a pressure change in the gas bag so as to detect the blood pressure of the user.
