Apparatus for detecting, receiving, deriving and displaying human physiological and contextual information
First Claim
1. An apparatus for monitoring human status parameters, comprising:
- a sensor device, said sensor device being in electronic communication with at least one sensor adapted to generate data indicative of at least a first parameter of said individual; and
an I/O device in electronic communication with said sensor device, said I/O device receiving said data indicative of at least a first parameter from said sensor device and data indicative of a second parameter of said individual generated by a second sensor, at least one of said first parameter and said second parameter being physiological, said I/O device generating derived data using said data indicative of at least a first parameter and said data indicative of a second parameter, said derived data comprising a third parameter of said individual, said third parameter being an individual status parameter that cannot be directly detected by any of said at least one sensor and said second sensor, said I/O device further including means for displaying information based on said third parameter.

Abstract
A monitoring apparatus that includes a sensor device and an I/O device in communication with the sensor device that generates derived data using the data from the sensor device. The derived data cannot be directly detected by the associated sensors. Alternatively, an apparatus that includes a wearable sensor device and an I/O device in communication with the sensor device that includes means for displaying information and a dial for entering information. Alternatively, an apparatus for tracking caloric consumption and caloric expenditure data that includes a sensor device and an I/O device in communication with the sensor device. The sensor device includes a processor programmed to generate data relating to caloric expenditure from sensor data. Alternatively, an apparatus for tracking caloric information for an individual that utilizes a plurality of classification identifiers for classifying meals consumed by the individual, each of the classification identifiers having a corresponding caloric amount.
