Abstract

A method is provided for using telemetry data, and a wearable device that communicates with a social network. One or more sensors, coupled to the wearable device that has a unique user ID, are used to acquire at least one of a user's activities, behaviors and habit information. The wearable device has ID circuitry and a communication system that reads and transmits the unique ID from an ID storage. The wearable device communicates with a social network. A telemetry system communicates with the one or more sensors. The telemetry system includes a database of user ID's. Telemetry data is analyzed based on at least one of, user's activities, behaviors and habit information. Personalized information is created about the user.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for using telemetry data, and a monitoring device, comprising:
using a monitoring device with a microphone and sensors to determine air quality, sound level/quality, light quality and ambient temperature near a user;
detecting a user's movement or motion information using an accelerometer or other movement detection device, the microphone configured to record the user's movement sounds detected by the accelerometer or other movement detection device, the accelerometer or other movement detection device and monitoring system configured to provide information configured to assist to determine user sleep information and sleep behavior information, the accelerometer or other movement detection device configured to cause the microphone to stop recording user movement sounds when the movement sounds are not directed to a sleep related parameter;
communicating between a telemetry system with at least one of the monitoring device, the accelerometer or other motion detection device, the telemetry system including a database of user sleep information and sleep behavior information;
analyzing at the telemetry system the user sleep information and sleep behavior information received from at least one of the monitoring device, the accelerometer or other movement detection device to drive at least one of: sleep onset and wake time, sleep interruption, and the quality and depth of sleep; and
creating personalized information about the user in response to the sleep information and sleep behavior information received from at least one of the monitoring device, the accelerometer or other movement detection device that includes the at least one of: sleep onset and wake time, sleep interruption, and the quality and depth of sleep.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
routing signals through the ID circuitry using a pathway way system of the ID circuitry, the ID circuitry including a power source coupled to the pathway system.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
using the wearable device ID of a user to identify and contact users of a social network.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
searching by a first user with a wearable device and unique ID a second user's unique wearable device ID displayed by another user; and
finding the second user on a social network website or social network website by searching for the second user.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
enabling wearable device users to engage in at least one of, non-romantic relationships, keep in touch with acquaintances, friends and family, professional business relationships, romantic relationships, communicating between wearable device users on a message board or internet forum, and allowing users to follow up on missed-connections.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the database includes at least one of a user, first and last name, email address, a desired password, phone number, gender, birth date, address, geographic region, education information, employment information, interests, relationship information and interests, family information, religious views, ethnicity, physical features including hair color, eye color, measurements, and the like, type of relationship being sought, living situation, answers to quiz questions, and a personal description about interesting personality traits.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
using the telemetry system to enable wearable device users to upload one or a plurality of photographs for other wearable device users to view, or for wearable device users to store the photo or photos on the server.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the system is configured to access a social network.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
enabling a wearable device user to provide personal information to the system from social networks.

10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
using the unique wearable device ID to enable the user to be searched and identified by other wearable device users and potential wearable device users.

11. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving from the wearable device user an email address.

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the email address of the user's ID is directed to another domain name.

13. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
using the system is to provide to a wearable device user a personal page.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the personal page utilizes a computer to automatically import the information provided when signing up with the system or a social network.

15. A method for using telemetry data, and a monitoring device, comprising:
using a monitoring device with a microphone and sensors to determine air quality, sound level/quality, light quality and ambient temperature near a user;
detecting a user's movement or motion information using an accelerometer or other movement detection device, the microphone configured to record the user's movement sounds detected by the accelerometer or other movement detection device, the accelerometer and monitoring system configured to provide information to assist to determine user sleep information and sleep behavior information, the accelerometer or other movement detection device configured to cause the microphone to stop recording user movement sounds when the movement sounds are not directed to a sleep related parameter;
communicating between a telemetry system with at least one of the monitoring device, the accelerometer or the other motion detection, the telemetry system including a database of user sleep information and sleep behavior information; and
analyzing at the telemetry system the user sleep information and sleep behavior information received from at least one of the monitoring device, the accelerometer or the other motion detection device to drive at least one of: sleep onset and wake time, sleep interruption, and the quality and depth of sleep, the telemetry system creating personalized information about the user in response to the sleep information and sleep behavior information received from at least one of the monitoring device, the accelerometer or other movement detection device that includes the at least one of: sleep onset and wake time, sleep interruption, and the quality and depth of sleep.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the system is configured to provide the mobile device or computer with updates from the server.

17. The method of claim 15 , further comprising:
sending streams of information from the wearable device, both encrypted and non-encrypted to the mobile device or computer and then to the server.

18. The method of claim 15 , further comprising:
sending information from the wearable device to the mobile device or computer.

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein information sent from the telemetry system to the mobile device or computer is processed at the mobile device, computer or telemetry system.

20. The method of claim 15 , further comprising:
sending raw sensor information from the wearable device to the mobile device or computer.

21. The method of claim 20 , wherein the information is compressed as well as non-compressed.

22. The method of claim 21 , further comprising:
using a compression algorithm to execute compression at the wearable device, mobile device, computer or the telemetry system.

23. The method of claim 15 , further comprising:
using the wearable device ID of a user to provide a method o
