ACTIVITY AND WORKOUT UPDATES
The present disclosure generally relates to navigating, viewing, and sharing activity and workout data and interacting with workout and/or activity applications. In some examples, scrolling of activity data is based on the content being displayed. In some examples, friends' activity data may be viewed. In some examples, a notification and workout data for a friend's completed workout is received and displayed. In some example, the activity data received from friends is viewed and managed. In some examples, workout data for a multi-segment workout is displayed in a three-dimensional stack on a map. In some examples, a workout application operates in a limited mode until a touch input is received with a characteristic intensity that is greater than a threshold intensity.
SENSOR-BASED CONDITION MONITOR
A sensor-based system that measures at least one parameter relating to an individual and provides feedback to the individual when any of the measured parameters exceed a threshold value for that parameter. In some instances, the system can be used to monitor an individual recovering from a condition, for example, mild Traumatic Brain Injury. The system can include a wearable sensor that measures parameters, which may relate to the individual's movement, physiological function, and/or environment. The system can include a controller that receives the parameter measurements and determines whether such measurements are acceptable by comparison to a threshold value. The system can also include a feedback device that alerts the individual when a measured parameter is unacceptable, for example, with a visual, audible, and/or haptic cue, as well as the capability to receive input from the user when an otherwise acceptable parameter level is causing discomfort.
RESPIRATORY STATE ESTIMATING DEVICE, PORTABLE DEVICE, WEARABLE DEVICE, MEDIUM, RESPIRATORY STATE ESTIMATING METHOD AND RESPIRATORY STATE ESTIMATOR
Provided is a respiratory state estimating device including a pulse wave signal acquiring unit that acquires a pulse wave signal from a portion of a living subject, a pulse rate calculating unit that calculates a pulse rate of the living subject based on the pulse wave signal, and a respiratory state estimating unit that estimates a respiratory state of the living subject based on the pulse rate. Also, provided is a respiratory state estimating method including optically acquiring a pulse wave signal from a portion of a living subject, calculating a pulse rate of the living subject based on the pulse wave signal, estimating a respiratory state of the living subject from the pulse rate.
MEDIA CONTENT SYSTEM FOR ENHANCING REST
A media-playback device acquires a heart rate, selects a song with a first tempo, and initiates playback of the song. The song meets a set of qualification criteria and the first tempo is based on the heart rate, such as being equal to or less than the heart rate. The media-playback device also initiates playback of a binaural beat at a first frequency. Over a period of time, the binaural beat's first frequency is changed to a second frequency. Over the period of time, the first tempo can also be changed to a second tempo, where the second tempo is slower than the first tempo.
Non-Invasive Intraocular Pressure Monitor
The invention provides devices and methods for non-invasive monitoring and measuring of intraocular pressure (IOP) of a subject. Embodiments include a lens that is adapted to fit on the subject's eye, a microstructure disposed in or on the lens, the microstructure having at least one feature that exhibits a change in shape and/or geometry and/or position on the lens in response to a change in curvature of the lens. When the curvature of the lens changes in response to a change in IOP, a corresponding change in shape and/or geometry and/or position of the feature may be used to determine the change in IOP. The change in the feature is detectable in digital images of the lens taken with a mobile electronic device such as a smartphone.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DISPLAY DEVICE AND SENSOR ELECTRONICS UNIT COMMUNICATION
Methods and apparatus are provided for communication among display devices and sensor electronics unit in an analyte monitoring system. The analyte monitoring system may include a sensor that is configured to perform measurements indicative of analyte levels. The sensor may be communicatively coupled to the sensor electronics unit. The sensor electronics unit may be configured to transmit data indicative of analyte levels to the display devices using one or more communication protocols. Furthermore, the sensor electronics unit may be configured to operate in multiple modes, and switch between the modes in response to commands received from the display devices. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also described.
OPPORTUNISTIC MEASUREMENTS AND PROCESSING OF USER'S CONTEXT
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide for an apparatus for opportunistic measurements and processing of a user's context. In one instance, the apparatus may include a processing block, a first sensor having first and second electrodes disposed on a work surface of the apparatus, to provide first readings of a user's physiological context in response to a contact between the electrodes and respective hands of a user, and a second sensor coupled with the processing block and having a sensitive surface embedded in one of the first or second electrode. The second sensor may provide second readings of the user's physiological context and a wake-up signal to the processing block in response to proximity of one of the hands to the sensitive surface. The processing block may facilitate process the user's physiological context in response to a receipt of the wake-up signal. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
MOBILE TERMINAL
A mobile terminal including a terminal body having a metal case and defining an appearance of the mobile terminal; a display disposed on one surface of the terminal body; an antenna having a radiator provided on a functional area of the metal case, the antenna unit configured to execute wireless communication; a plurality of electrodes provided on one portion of the functional area and configured to generate current; and a controller configured to in response to a user grasping the mobile terminal such that the electrodes are in contact with the user, measure a body fat of the user based on voltages sensed by the electrodes, and display screen information on the display related to the determined body fat measurement.
ALCOHOL AND DRUG INTERVENTION SYSTEM AND METHOD
An alcohol and drug intervention system and method, comprising: a server component; and a mobile application component wirelessly coupled to the server component; wherein the server component and the mobile application component are collectively operable for, in an interactive manner, receiving input from a user and presenting the user with output based on the input received from the user, wherein the input received from the user comprises one or more of personal information, activity information, and activity related to alcohol and/or drug use, and wherein the output presented to the user comprises one or more of coaching information and counseling information. Optionally, the system further comprises a testing device coupled to the mobile application component and adjusting one or more of the coaching and counseling information based on results obtained from the testing device.
SENSOR DATA MANAGEMENT FOR MULIPLE SMART DEVICES
One embodiment relates to an apparatus, comprising logic, at least partially incorporated into hardware, to: receive first sensor data associated with a first sensor of a first smart device; determine a first reliability factor associated with the first sensor data; receive second sensor data associated with a second sensor of a second smart device; and determine a second reliability factor associated with the second sensor data. The logic is further to determine a sensor data reporting plan based upon the first reliability factor and the second reliability factor, the sensor data reporting plan indicating whether each of the first sensor and the second sensor are to subsequently send their respective sensor data to a primary communication device.
