Abstract: A system and method measures a parameter of body fat using body fat monitoring circuitry provided with a mobile communications device or device cover. A mobile terminal device includes a housing supporting a display, a processor, and a user interface for facilitating user interaction with the mobile terminal device. Body fat monitoring circuitry of the mobile terminal device includes a tactile interface supported by one or both of the housing and a cover of the housing. The monitoring circuitry communicates monitoring signals to a portion of a user's body via the tactile interface. The processor computes a resistance to the communication of the monitoring signals and computes the user's body fat parameter using the computed resistance. An acceleration sensor may be included to provide various pedometer functions.

Abstract: A method, software tool, computer program product and low power radio device are provided for transponder aided wake-up and connection set-up by detecting a wake up event in a sleep mode of the low power radio device, putting the radio device into an operative state, transmitting at least one advert message by radio transmission, wherein the low power radio devices put into a passive mode for a predetermined period of time in case no answer is received in response to the at least one transmitted advert message.
