Abstract: A system and method provide health-related information. A user interface on a computing device may provide assessment information associated with an assessment of a user's health. Further, sensed information associated with at least one of biological information, physiological information and physical activity of the user can be received from a different device which is configured to sense information. Moreover, a processing subsystem that includes a processor and processor readable media can be configured to process the sensed information, via, to provide processed user information, and to determine health-related information, via the processing subsystem, using the assessment information and the processed user information.

Abstract: A wearable device is disclosed configured to provide and transmit user information. Health-related information that is associated with a user information is received and output to a user. The wearable device can include a display configured to provide a user interface and a sensor senses information associated with biological features, physiological features and/or physical activity of the user, while the device is being worn. A communications subsystem is provided that is configured to communicate with the remote computing device. The wearable device includes a processing subsystem is provided and configured to process the sensed information to provide processed user information. The processed user information is transmitted via the communication subsystem, to the remote computing device, and health-related information associated with the processed user information is received from the remote computing device. The health-related information is provided, via the user interface, on the display.

Abstract: A unique health score computation method is disclosed which masks underlying health statistics, yet provides a benchmark for a variety of applications. A system and method for collecting health related information, processing the information into a composite numerical value, and publishing the value is provided. The system includes a computer having a processor, memory, and code modules executing in the processor for implementation of the method. Information concerning a plurality of intrinsic and extrinsic parameters of a user is collected. Weighting factors are applied to the parameter in order control the relative affect each parameter has on the user's calculated numerical. The health score is computed using the processor by combining the weighted parameters in accordance with an algorithm. The numerical value is published to a designated group via a portal, while the underlying parameters remain private. In one implementation, the portal is an internet based information sharing forum.

Abstract: There is shown and described a computer implemented system and method for analyzing an individual's personal stress level and providing a stress-score representing the individual's personal stress level. A plurality of parameters are received into a memory from at least one computing device and each of the parameters respectively represents a factor of the individual's life that contributes to a level of stress for the individual. The received parameter data is processed by executing code in a processor that configures the processor to normalize the parameter data by assigning, for each of the received parameters, a respective parameter score that represents a relative value of the parameter. The individual's stress-score is calculated as a function of the normalized parameter data, the stress-score is automatically transmitted to the at least one computing device, using code executing in the processor and free of human intervention.

Abstract: A computer implemented method for managing health-related data captures an image from a display of an exercise machine using a camera, has the images processed to extract the text data from the captured images, and analyzes the text data to identify information relating to extrinsic physical activity performed by a person at the exercise machine. The results are stored in memory and a profile specific to the person is updated. The profile comprises a log of past exercise activity that allows the person to track his or her activity and progress and overall health. The profile can be accessed by the person through a portal such as using a smart phone or a computer program or web browser. The results can be combined with other data to arrive at a health score which can be published through the portal while personal data remains masked from public inspection.
