Abstract

The invention discloses a personal fitness tracking device and use of gyroscopes in personal fitness tracking devices. The application relates to gyroscopes and use of other types of gyroscopes in personal fitness tracking devices. Biometric monitoring devices, including various technologies that may be implemented in such devices, are discussed herein. Additionally, techniques for utilizing gyroscopes in biometric monitoring devices are provided. Such techniques may, in some implementations, involve obtaining swimming metrics regarding stroke cycle count, lap count, and stroke type. Such techniques may also, in some implementations, involve obtaining performance metrics for bicycling activities.

Description

[0001] Case information [0002] This application is a divisional application of the invention patent application No. 201410243248.0 with the filing date of June 3, 2014 and titled "Use of Gyroscope in Personal Fitness Tracking Device". technical field [0003] The present invention relates to the use of gyroscopes and other types of sensors in personal fitness tracking devices. Background technique [0004] Recent consumer concerns about personal health have resulted in a variety of personal health monitoring devices being offered on the market. Until recently, such devices tended to be complicated to use and were usually designed for one activity, such as bicycle touring computers. [0005] Recent advances in the miniaturization of sensors, electronics, and power supplies have allowed the size of personal health monitoring devices (also referred to herein as "biometric tracking" or "biometric monitoring" devices) to provide . For example, the Fitbit Ultra is a biometri...
