Portable monitoring devices and methods of operating the same

摘要

In one aspect of the disclosed implementations, a device includes one or more motion sensors for sensing motion of the device and providing activity data indicative of the sensed motion. The device also includes one or more processors for monitoring the activity data, and receiving or generating annotation data for annotating the activity data with one or more markers or indicators to define one or more characteristics of an activity session. The device also includes one or more feedback devices for providing feedback, a notice, or an indication to a user based on the monitoring. The device further includes a portable housing that encloses at least portions of the motion sensors, the processors and the feedback devices.

1. A device comprising:
at least one motion sensor to sense motion of the device and to provide activity data based on the sensed motion; at least one processor to:
receive the activity data;receive or generate annotation data to annotate the activity data with one or more markers or indicators to define one or more characteristics of a physical activity session, the one or more markers or indicators defining a first time duration of the physical activity session;determine a value of a first activity metric using the activity data received during the first time duration, the first activity metric value defining at least one of the one or more characteristics of the physical activity session; anddetermine a value of a second activity metric using the activity data received during the first time duration and activity data received during a second time duration different than the first time duration, the second activity metric value defining a characteristic of a period of time that covers the first time duration and the second time duration; at least one feedback device to provide an indication to a user based on the first activity metric value; and a portable housing that encloses at least portions of the at least one motion sensor, the at least one processor and the at least one feedback device.
