Abstract:
Techniques for data-capable band management in an integrated application and network communication data environment are described, including detecting a signal configured to initiate a pairing function being transmitted from a wearable computing device to an application, pairing the wearable computing device to the application, establishing a data communication link between the wearable computing device and the application, and configuring the application to transfer data between the wearable computing device and the application.
Abstract:
Techniques associated with a combination speaker and light source powered using a light socket are described, including a housing comprising a plate coupled to a substantially hemispherical enclosure, a platform configured to couple a light source to a terminal configured to receive a light control signal, the light control signal configured to modify a light characteristic, a speaker coupled to the housing and configured to project audio in a direction, a light socket connector coupled to the housing and configured to provide power to the speaker and the light source when the light socket connector is coupled with a light socket, an acoustic sensor disposed on a surface of the housing, and a light sensor located within the housing, the light sensor facing away from the light source.

Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention relates generally to electrical and electronic hardware, computer software, wired and wireless network communications, and computing devices, and more specifically to structures and techniques for managing power generation, power consumption, and other power-related functions in a data-capable strapband. Embodiments relate to a band including sensors, a controller coupled to the sensors, an energy storage device, a connector configured to receive power and control signals, and a power manager. The power manager includes at least a transitory power manager configured to manage power consumption of the band during a first power mode and a second mode. The band can be configured as a wearable communications device and sensor platform.

Abstract:
A wellness system including a personal wearable data-capable band is described. In some examples; a wellness system may include an aggregation engine configured to aggregate user activity data from sources, a feedback engine configured to process the user activity data, the feedback engine operable to communicate a feedback notification to a source device including at least one of the sources, and a user interface configured to display a graphical representation associated with an aggregate value determined from the user activity data and the feedback notification. In other examples, a method using a wellness system may include receiving user activity data from sources, processing the user activity data using an aggregation engine to determine an aggregate value, generating a graphical representation using the aggregate value, and displaying the graphical representation using a user interface.
Abstract:
Spatial and temporal vector analysis in wearable devices using sensor data are described, including evaluating a motion to determine motion signals, the motion being evaluated using data provided by one or more sensors in data communication with a wearable device, isolating motion signals into one or more motion sub-signals, determining a spatial vector and a temporal vector associated with each of the one or more motion sub-signals, and transforming the spatial vector and the temporal vector into a data structure to be used by an application configured to analyze the data structure and to generate content associated with the motion.
Abstract:
A data-capable band for medical diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment is described, including one or more sensors configured to gather data associated with diagnosis, monitoring or treatment of a medical condition, an application configured to determine the medical condition using the data gathered by the sensors, a memory configured to store the data and the application, and a notification facility configured to provide an array of notifications in relation to the monitoring and treatment of the medical conditions. The notifications may be alarms, may be designed to prompt movement, or may be associated with a drug regimen.
