Activity metric calculation for wearable devices
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- obtaining, via a wearable device, a measurement of one or more physiological parameters related to a wearer of the wearable device;
in response to obtaining the measurement, transmitting, via the wearable device, the measurement to an external device;
calculating, by the wearable device, a preliminary activity metric based on the obtained measurement of the one or more physiological parameters;
indicating to the wearer, by the wearable device, the preliminary activity metric;
receiving, via the wearable device, a subsequent activity metric from the external device, wherein the subsequent activity metric is based on both (i) the obtained measurement of the one or more physiological parameters and (ii) demographical data specific to the wearer; and
refining the preliminary activity metric based on the received subsequent activity metric, the refining including indicating to the wearer, by the wearable device, the refined activity metric.

Abstract
A wearable device described herein includes a housing and a mount configured to mount the housing to an external surface of a wearer. The wearable device further includes one or more sensors configured to measure at least one physiological parameter of the wearer. The wearable device may obtain an activity metric that is based on at least one physiological parameter of the wearer measured by the one or more sensors and demographical data specific to the wearer. In some examples, the wearable may be configured to calculate the activity metric or a preliminary activity metric and to indicate the activity metric and/or preliminary activity metric to the wearer. In some examples, the wearable device may transmit the physiological parameter measurement to an external device and receive an indication of the activity metric from the external device.
