Methods using a monitoring device to monitor individual activities, behaviors or habit information and communicate with a database with corresponding individual base information for comparison

摘要

A method is provided for obtaining monitored information about an individual and provide the individual with feedback. A monitoring device with one or more sensors is used to measure or detect individual information selected from of at least one of, an individual's activities, behaviors and habit information, and an individual's health. The monitoring device has ID circuitry with an ID storage that contains a unique individual ID, a communication system which reads and transmits the unique individual ID from the ID storage, a power source and a pathway system. The monitoring device communicates with a telemetry system. The telemetry system has a database that includes base individual information selected from at least one of, individual physiological information, information that is indicative of the individual's activities, data indicative of one or more contextual parameters of the individual and information regarding a degree to which an individual has followed a routine.

1. A method for obtaining monitored information about an individual and provide the individual with feedback, comprising:
detecting or measuring information about the individual using a monitoring device that includes a microphone, an RF transmitter and sensors to determine air quality, sound level/quality, light quality and ambient temperature near the individual, the RF transmitter serving as a communication system; an accelerometer configured to detect the individual's movement information, the accelerometer and the monitoring system configured to assist to determine the individual's sleep information and sleep behavior information, the microphone configured to record an individual's movement sounds detected by the accelerometer, the accelerometer configured to cause the microphone to stop recording the individual's movement sounds when the movement sounds are not directed to a sleep related parameter; and communicating between the monitoring device and a telemetry system, the telemetry system having a database that includes base individual information of the individual's sleep information and sleep behavior information from the monitoring device and the accelerometer accessing an individual's profile stored in the database, the telemetry system in operation selecting records of sleep information and sleep behavior information data of one or more individual's, the telemetry system configured to receive the individual's movement and monitoring device, with the telemetry system or the monitoring system analyzing the individual's movement information and the monitoring device information to calculate or derive sleep onset and wake time, sleep interruptions, and the quality and depth of sleep; and providing feedback to the user regarding one or more of the individual's sleep onset and wake time, sleep interruptions, and the quality and depth of sleep.
