Abstract: Techniques for implementing a platform configured to interact with a plurality of applications on a computing device to provide health information of an individual. The platform may be implemented by receiving information representative of a health state of an individual. The information may be provided by a sensor associated with the individual and provide data indicating the individual's physiological and/or emotional state. An indication of the individual's health state may be generated by selecting a value from a set of values representative of different health states. The indication may be provided through a programming interface to one or more applications. An application may provide context information associated with the individual at a time associated with the individual's health state, and the context information may be used to generate the indication.

Abstract: A wearable article includes a flexible band comprising one or more band segments; one or more biosensors located in the flexible band; one or more processing units located in the flexible band; and at least one connecting mechanism configured to connect at least one end of the flexible band to a housing of a watch face. A method of monitoring a physiological state of a wearer via a flexible band connected to a watch face housing worn at the wearer's wrist includes: receiving, at one or more processing units located in the flexible band, sensor data from one or more biosensors located in the flexible band; and analyzing the received sensor data, via the one or more processing units, to compute a score representative of a physiological state of the wearer.
