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:
one or more motion sensors for sensing motion of the device and providing activity data indicative of the sensed motion, the activity data pertaining to a physical activity undertaken by a user of the device to whom the device is physically coupled; one or more processors for:
monitoring the activity data; andreceiving or generating annotation data for annotating the activity data with one or more markers or indicators to define one or more characteristics of a physical activity session, the physical activity session being associated with a duration of time in which the device is monitoring the activity data, the duration of time being a user-defined duration of time or a duration of time associated with a particular physical activity; one or more feedback devices for providing feedback, a notice, or an indication to the user based on the monitoring; and a portable housing that encloses at least portions of the motion sensors, the processors and the feedback devices.
