  • Publication number: 20230320605
    Abstract: An example technique may include tracking motion of a user wearing the wearable device using at least first sensors of one or more sensors of the wearable device. The technique may also include tracking a physical state of the user using at least second sensors of the one or more sensors of the wearable device. The technique may also include determining whether an application of the wearable device has been launched. The technique may also include determining an action category of the user based at least in part on at least one of the motion of the user, the physical state of the user, or whether the application has been launched. The technique may also include collecting heartrate data of the user. The technique may also include categorizing the heartrate data based at least in part on the determined action category.

  • Patent number: 11690522
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for tracking heartrate metrics using different operating modes associated with different contexts of a wearable device. For example, a heartrate sensor of the wearable device may be operated in a first operating mode when an activity is being tracked within an application session of a particular application. The heartrate sensor may be operated in a second operating mode after detecting conclusion of the activity within the activity session (e.g., during sedentary time).

  • Patent number: 10874313
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure can provide systems, methods, and computer-readable medium for tracking the heartrate of a user using different techniques associated with different contexts. For example, motion of a user wearing a wearable device can be tracked using at least first sensors of the one or more sensors. The physical state of the user can also be tracked using at least second sensors of the one or more sensors. In some cases it can be determines whether an application of the wearable device has been launched. Additionally, an activity category of the user can be determined based at least in part on the motion of the user, the physical state of the user, and/or whether the application has been launched. Heartrate data of the user can be collected, and the heartrate data can be categorized based at least in part on the determined category.

  • Patent number: 8848242
    Abstract: The application discloses systems and methods for physically sharing a hard copy of a document. The systems and methods include presenting to a user a graphical user interface having printing options for printing the document, where the graphical user interface has an input for receiving an indication by the user that the user is willing to share the hard copy of the document; presenting to the user options for defining characteristics of the hard copy of the document in response to receiving the indication; and publishing at least one of the defined characteristics within a profile page of the user.
