  • Publication number: 20250209148
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for operating a wearable device are described. The wearable device may determine that a user is wearing the wearable device. The wearable device may collect physiological data from the user based on determining that the user is wearing the wearable device. The wearable device may then determine an identity of the user based at least in part on the collected physiological data matching a physiological profile associated with the identity. The wearable device may then authenticate the user for an action by the wearable device that requires user authentication.

  • Patent number: 12340026
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for gesture recognition are described. A system may identify geographical location data associated with a user throughout a time interval and may identify a set of gesture profiles corresponding to a set of gestures associated with the geographical location data of the user. The system may additionally acquire physiological data, including motion data, associated with the user from a wearable device worn by the user and may identify a set of motion segments within the time interval based on the motion data. Additionally, the system may identify a gesture the user engaged in based on matching a motion segment of the set of motion segments to a gesture profile of the set of gesture profiles and may cause a graphical user interface (GUI) of a user device running the application to display an indication of the gesture.

  • Publication number: 20240096463
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for taggable event detection are described. A system may receive geographical location data associated with a user throughout a time interval, and receive physiological data associated with the user from a wearable device. The system may correlate the physiological data with candidate taggable events, where the candidate taggable events are associated with respective confidence values that indicate confidence levels that the corresponding candidate taggable events occurred within the time interval. The system may selectively modify the confidence values associated with the candidate taggable events based on the geographical location data to generate one or more modified confidence values, and identify a taggable event within the time interval based on a modified confidence value associated with the taggable event satisfying a threshold confidence value.

  • Patent number: 9948734
    Abstract: In one embodiment, sensor signals corresponding to motions of a client device are received. Activities of a user corresponding to the client device are determined, based on a first analysis algorithm that uses the sensor signals to select activity types, each activity type corresponding to a particular time period. A reference to the selected activity types is sent to the client device. User input indicating whether the reference is correct is received from the client device. Based on the indication, which reflects the accuracy of the first analysis algorithm, a priority between the first analysis algorithm and a second analysis algorithm is determined, based on determining which analysis algorithm is more accurate.

  • Publication number: 20150104423
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a microbial composition which is tailored based on the spectrum of microbes found more frequently from the intestine of non-secretor individuals than from the intestine of secretor individuals. The present invention further relates to a method of tailoring a microbial composition based on the spectrum of microbes found more frequently from the intestine of non-secretor individuals than from that of secretor blood group status. The present invention relates to use of the secretor status of an individual as a criterion for microbial supplementation tailored based on the differences in the spectra of microbes found between secretor and non-secretor individuals.

  • Publication number: 20150005030
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system for tracking and recording movements of a communication device. The mobile communication device is operable to communicate one or more sensor signals to the system, wherein the sensor signals are indicative of motion associated with activities to which the user exposes the mobile communication device. The system includes a computing hardware that analyses sensor signals to classify them into one or more temporal zones, determines a most likely activity type associated with a given temporal zone, and sends the information regarding most likely activity to the mobile communication device. The user of the mobile communication device provides their confirmation whether the most likely activity type represents a correct analysis, and communicate the confirmation back to the computing hardware for amending parameters and/or algorithms which execute analysis of the sensor signals to improve their accuracy.
