Portable Monitoring Devices and Methods of Operating Same
First Claim
1. An activity monitoring system comprising:
- a portable activity monitoring device comprising;
a housing having a physical size and shape that is adapted to couple to the body of the user,a motion sensor, disposed in the housing, to generate data which is representative of motion of the user, andan altitude sensor, disposed in the housing, to generate data which is representative of the change in altitude of the user; and
a display to output data which is representative of a badge, wherein the badge is representative of an achievement computed using data from the motion sensor and/or altitude sensor.

Abstract
The present inventions, in one aspect, are directed to an activity monitoring system including a portable activity monitoring device comprising a housing having a physical size and shape that is adapted to couple to the user'"'"'s body, a motion sensor, disposed in the housing, to generate data which is representative of the user'"'"'s motion, and an altitude sensor, disposed in the housing, to generate data which is representative of the change in the user'"'"'s altitude. The system further includes a display to output data which is representative of a badge, wherein the badge is representative of an achievement computed using motion and/or altitude sensor data. The monitoring device may also include a physiological sensor to generate data which is representative of a user'"'"'s physiological condition. Here, the display outputs data which is representative of a badge wherein the badge is representative of a physiological achievement.
