Title:
DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS FOR MONITORING, CLASSIFYING, AND ENCOURAGING ACTIVITY
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/142379
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
Devices, methods, and systems for monitoring, classifying and encouraging activity through the use of an accelerometer or other sensor in a toy or other accessory (such as a backpack or watch) that records activity are disclosed. The activity is classified, using various motion classification algorithms, to determine the specific types and amount of activities performed and the times and duration for which they were performed. The classified data is used in the rest of the system, which allows users to view activity history, recommendations for how to improve health, and play games in which the player's game performance is effected by their activity levels. In games and on the website, feedback is also given to users to encourage and reward exercise, while handicapping users that are not active.
