Dynamically adaptive scheduling system
First Claim
1. A method for a portable electronic device to interact with one or more exercise machines, the method comprising:
- accepting first identification data from a first exercise machine, wherein the first identification data comprises data for identifying the first exercise machine;
accepting first sensor data indicative of a user'"'"'s performance metrics when the user is interacting with the first exercise machine;
linking the first sensor data with the first identification data;
storing the first identification data and the first sensor data in memory of the portable electronic device; and
generating a first control signal for influencing operation of the first exercise machine, wherein the first control signal is based on the first sensor data.

Abstract
Methods and systems for providing a lifestyle companion system are provided. The lifestyle companion system can provide a platform to conduct a user interview. Based on the user interview responses, the system can suggest activities, references, and/or plug-in modules. During performance of activities, the system can provide audio and/or visual cues related to the activities and collect data indicative of the user'"'"'s performance. Based on the collected data, the system can dynamically adapt the user'"'"'s goals and/or activities the user is performing or will perform. In some embodiments of the present invention, the lifestyle companion system of the present invention can be applied to fitness, nutrition, and/or medical modules. The system also can be used to facilitate synchronous group activities.
