Abstract:
A mobile device is provided, including: a synchronization module configured to receive, at the mobile device, activity data from an activity monitoring device via a wireless connection; an activity data processing module configured to process the activity data to determine an activity metric for a user; a notification generator configured to compare the activity metric against a predefined threshold, the predefined threshold being mapped to a notification message, determine, based on the comparison, that the activity metric has reached or exceeds the predefined threshold, and access an electronic calendar associated with the user to obtain electronic calendar data; a display; and, a notification presenter configured to display the notification message on the mobile device via the display responsive to determining that the activity metric has reached or exceeded the predefined threshold, a timing of the display of the notification message being determined based on the electronic calendar data.
Abstract:
Methods, systems and devices are provided for motion-activated display of messages on an activity monitoring device. In one embodiment, an activity monitoring device is provided, including: a memory configured to store a plurality of messages; a motion sensor; a display; logic configured to download the plurality of messages to the memory; logic implemented by a circuit configured to detect, based on output of the motion sensor, a stationary state of the activity monitoring device and a subsequent movement of the activity monitoring device from the stationary state, and, in response to detecting the movement from the stationary state, select one of the plurality of messages from the memory, and render the selected message on the display; wherein selecting one of the plurality of messages includes determining a selection condition.
Abstract:
A method is provided, including: processing requests from a plurality of users to join a group event, the group event defined for an activity metric for each of the plurality of users for a period of time; analyzing the activity metrics of the plurality of users to determine a ranking of the plurality of users based on their activity metrics, and to identify a change in relationship between activity metrics of two or more of the plurality of users; generating a message, wherein generating the message includes, identifying, based on the identified change in relationship, one or more user accounts of select ones of the plurality of users to receive the message, selecting a message template based on the identified change in relationship, and populating the message template to generate a message describing the change in relationship; sending the message to the one or more user accounts.
Abstract:
Methods, systems and devices are provided for displaying monitored activity data in substantial real-time on a screen of a computing device. One example method includes capturing motion data associated with activity of a user via an activity tracking device. The motion data is quantified into a plurality of metrics associated with the activity of the user. The method storing the motion data in storage of the activity tracking device. The method connects the activity tracking device with a computing device over a wireless data connection, and sending motion data to the computing device for display of a metric, of the plurality of metrics, on a graphical user interface of an activity application of the computing device. The sending of motion data to the computing device is configured to continue while additional motion data is captured and sent to the computing device. The metric displayed on the graphical user interface is shown to change in an increasing numerical or graphical form in substantial real-time.
