Scale-based user-physiological data hierarchy service apparatuses and methods
First Claim
1. An apparatus comprising:
- a weighing scale including;
a platform including force sensor circuitry and a plurality of electrodes integrated with the platform, and configured and arranged to engage a user with electrical signals and collect signals indicative of the user'"'"'s identity and cardio-related physiologic data while the user is standing on the platform; and
processing circuitry, including a CPU and a memory circuit with user-corresponding data stored in the memory circuit, configured and arranged with the force sensor circuitry and the plurality of electrodes and being configured to;
collect scale-obtained data including cardio-related physiologic data from the user while the user is standing on the platform and output at least portions of the cardio-related physiologic data as user data; and
provide a hierarchy of health-information services pertaining to the scale-obtained data in response to the user selecting a scale-generated prompt for a service corresponding to a subscription level, wherein the hierarchy of health-information services include different services enabled in response to user selection of one or more of the different services and activation of subscription levels of different values weighted relative to a degree of health-information sensitivity of data provided to the user.

Abstract
Certain aspects of the disclosure are directed to an apparatus including a weighing scale and external circuitry. The weighing scale includes a platform including force sensor circuitry and a plurality of electrodes to collect signals indicative of the user'"'"'s identity and cardio-related physiologic data while the user is standing on the platform and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry configured with the force sensor circuitry and the plurality of electrodes to collect the cardio-related physiologic data from the user and output at least portions of the cardio-related physiologic data as user data. The external circuitry receives user data from a plurality of weighing scales include the weighing scale and provides a hierarchy of services using scale-obtained data, wherein the hierarchy of services include different services enabled in response to user selection of the service and activation of subscription levels of different weighted values.
