Abstract

Techniques associated with a platform for providing wellness assessments and recommendations using sensor data are described, including collecting local sensor data using a wearable device having a communication facility configured to connect to a network, accessing environmental data from third party databases, generating a wellness assessment using a rules based engine configured to process the local sensor data, the environmental data and historical user data, and generating a wellness recommendation using the wellness assessment.

Claims

1. A method, comprising:

collecting local sensor data using a wearable device comprising a communication facility configured to connect to a network;

accessing environmental data from a plurality of third party databases;

generating a wellness assessment using a rules based engine configured to process the local sensor data, the environmental data and historical user data; and

generating a wellness recommendation using the wellness assessment.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein generating a wellness assessment using a rules based engine comprises detecting a precondition associated with a rule.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein generating a wellness assessment using a rules based engine comprises initiating a set of rules associated with a detected precondition.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein generating a wellness assessment using a rules based engine comprises determining an order in which to apply a set of rules.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein generating a wellness assessment using a rules based engine comprises determining whether a constraint is associated with a rule prior to applying the rule.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein generating a wellness assessment using a rules based engine comprises applying a set of rules in an order of priority.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein the local sensor data comprises location data.

8. The method of claim 1, wherein the local sensor data indicates a user'"'"'s movement from one area to another area.

9. The method of claim 1, wherein the plurality of third party databases comprises a public database.

10. The method of claim 1, wherein the plurality of third party databases comprises a private database configured to be accessed by the wearable device.

11. The method of claim 1, wherein the local sensor data comprises a characteristic activity level.

12. The method of claim 1, wherein the environmental data indicates a disease outbreak in a geographical area.

13. The method of claim 1, wherein the environmental data indicates air quality in a geographical area.

14. The method of claim 1, wherein the environmental data is associated with weather.

15. A system, comprising:

a wearable device comprising one or more sensors configured to collect local sensor data;

a memory configured to store historical user data; and

a processor configured to access environmental data from a plurality of third party databases, to process the local sensor data, the environmental data and the historical user data using a rules based engine to generate a wellness assessment, and to generate a wellness recommendation using the wellness assessment.

16. The system of claim 15, further comprising a display configured to present the wellness assessment.

17. The system of claim 15, further comprising a user interface configured to present the wellness recommendation.

18. The system of claim 15, wherein the wellness assessment is configured to be presented using a graph.

19. The system of claim 15, wherein the wellness assessment is configured to correlate the local sensor data with a trend associated with a section of a population.

20. The system of claim 15, wherein the wellness assessment is configured to correlate the local sensor data with an aspect of the historical user data.
