Methods, systems and devices for generating real-time activity data updates to display devices

摘要

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.

1. A method, comprising,
capturing motion data associated with activity of a user via an activity tracking device, the motion data quantified into a plurality of metrics associated with the activity of the user; storing the motion data in storage of the activity tracking device; connecting the activity tracking device with a computing device over a wireless data connection; 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; and detecting the activity tracking device being within a proximity distance from the computing device, the proximity distance being within a low energy wireless communication distance that enables the wireless data connection; wherein the sending of motion data to the computing device is configured to continue while additional motion data is captured and while the activity tracking device is within the proximity distance, the metric displayed on the graphical user interface is shown to change in an increasing numerical or graphical form in substantial real-time for the received motion data sent when the activity tracking device was within the proximity distance, and further comprising, pausing the sending of motion data when the activity tracking device is beyond the proximity distance; continuing to store motion data captured by the activity tracking device in the storage; reestablishing the connection between the activity tracking device and the computing device; and sending motion data from the storage to computing device, the sent motion data acting to increment the metric to include metric data stored in the activity tracking device while the connection was paused the method being executed by a processor.
