Embodiment Construction

[0117] I. overview

[0118] A behavior modification system according to an embodiment of the present invention is configured to assist a user in improving health and comfort, among other goals that may be set by the user. In one embodiment, the system collects various data and provides feedback to the user based on the collected data. The feedback may include simple feedback, such as reports on the tracked data, and it may also include more complex feedback, such as guidance in improving health and comfort based on determinations made from analysis of the collected data or help. In use, the system may collect a variety of data including user data (e.g. biometric data, physiological data, physical activity), environmental data (e.g. temperature, location, sunlight, air pressure, altitude, noise level) and possibly Other data that represents, influences, or otherwise relates to one or more purposes of the described system. The type of data collected may vary from applicatio...

Abstract

A behavior modification system includes a network of components that interact to collect various data and provide user feedback. The network may include a personal device, an Internet-enabled storage device and a hub capable of receiving communications from the personal device and communicating to the storage device. The personal device may include bio-impedance measurement circuitry, an accelerometer and a processor for determining energy expenditure based on data from the accelerometer(s). The system may include a smart hub capable of routing communications between various components within the system. The hub may include different transceivers for different communication protocols. The system may incorporate a low-power RF wake-up system. The system may include bio-impedance measurement circuitry that is reconfigurable to function as an alternative type of sensor.; In other aspects, the present invention provides a method for measuring bio-resonance and a method for determining caloric intake from body composition and caloric expenditure.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to automated systems and methods for understanding and assisting human behavior, and more particularly to automated systems and methods for collecting a variety of user-related data and providing feedback to the user. Background technique [0002] There have been many attempts in the past to collect and harvest information to help users understand health, behavior, and conditions. These systems are limited in scope and capability because, inter alia, they do not adequately address the need to change user behavior. Many systems are designed to monitor user data and report specific details. As a result, these types of systems have had only limited commercial success. [0003] I. energy consumption [0004] The most typical form of behavior that consumers are trying to understand and control is health or weight. Health monitoring devices typically seek to measure calorie expenditure so that a user can determine an approp...
