Wearable health monitoring system
First Claim
1. A device, comprising:
- a processing system including a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations, comprising;
obtaining a baseline health performance sample of a user of the device, wherein the baseline health performance sample comprises a first measurement corresponding to a first movement of the user;
receiving a request for a new health performance sample;
capturing an input representing the new health performance sample according to the request, wherein the input comprises a second measurement corresponding to a second movement of the device relative to a second processor, wherein the second movement is determined according to arrival time data associated with signals that are transmitted according to instructions from the second processor;
comparing the second measurement to the first measurement to determine a difference in user health performance; and
transmitting information associated with the difference in user health performance to the second processor.

Abstract
Devices, systems and methods are disclosed which relate to remotely monitoring the health of an individual. The individual wears a health monitoring device, with an attached strap, capable of sensing characteristics of the individual. These characteristics may include voice level and tone, movements, blood pressure, temperature, etc. The device allows individuals to constantly monitor their health without having to physically visit a doctor or other health care professional. Wireless communication, for instance with an Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) set-top box, allows measurements to be made and evaluated by a computerized healthcare service provider. For a more accurate evaluation, measurements are sent over the INTERNET to a service. The device communicates with services in order to diagnose the individual based upon the characteristics.

7. A non-transitory, machine-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processing system including a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
-
receiving a voice sample of a user; evaluating the voice sample against a voice baseline to identify the user; requesting a performance sample of the user from a sensor of a health monitoring device, wherein the performance sample comprises a measurement corresponding to a movement of the sensor; providing two signals to the health monitoring device via a wireless transceiver, wherein the movement is determined according to a time difference of arrival at the sensor between the two signals; comparing the performance sample to a baseline performance sample to determine a difference of user performance; and determining a health condition of the user based upon the difference in user performance. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A method, the method comprising:
-
communicatively connecting, by a processing system comprising a processor, to a health monitoring device; providing, by the processing system, an instruction to the health monitoring device; instructing, by the processing system, that a user associated with the health monitoring device perform a physical move; providing, by the processing system, a first sensor of the health monitoring device to obtain a movement sample, wherein the movement sample is determined relative to a position of the processor, wherein the movement sample is determined according to a time difference of arrival between two signals originating at the processing system; evaluating, by the processing system, the movement sample against a movement baseline for the user to determine a health condition of the user; and transmitting, by the processing system, the health condition to an application server. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
