  • Patent number: 10376185
    Abstract: A method implemented in a system which comprises a lightweight personal wearable monitoring device, supplied by a battery, comprising an accelerometer, a processing unit, a display, a remote server, said method comprising the steps: /a/ collecting, from a plurality of individuals caused to practice various physical activities from a set of predefined activities, acceleration data from sensing devices placed on each of said individuals, /b/ defining N small data-size specific metrics, computed from acceleration signals, which allow to define a global activity classifier, /c/ acquiring, at a first monitoring device worn by a first user, acceleration signals from the accelerometer of the first monitoring device, /d/ calculating, at the first monitoring device, over each lapsed time unit T1, specific metrics values from the sensed signals, to form a series of specific metrics values, /e/ send them to the processing unit, /f/ allocate an activity type for each time unit together with corresponding specific metric
