Abstract

Techniques for data-capable band management in an integrated application and network communication data environment are described, including setting a goal, the goal comprising a threshold for an activity, receiving input from one or more sensors coupled to a wearable computing device over a time period, processing the input to generate a signal indicating whether the goal is achieved over the time period, generating a control signal, the control signal configured to initiate execution of an operation if the signal indicates the goal is achieved over the time period, and displaying on a user interface in data communication with the wearable computing device a log indicating the activity associated with the input received over the time period.

Claims

1. A method, comprising:

setting a goal, the goal comprising a threshold for an activity;

receiving input from one or more sensors coupled to a wearable computing device over a time period;

processing the input to generate a signal indicating whether the goal is achieved over the time period;

generating a control signal, the control signal configured to initiate execution of an operation if the signal indicates the goal is achieved over the time period; and

displaying on a user interface in data communication with the wearable computing device a log indicating the activity associated with the input received over the time period.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the control signal is further configured to initiate execution of another operation if the signal indicates the goal is not achieved over the time period.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the wearable computing device comprises a vibration source, and the operation is executed by the vibration source.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the operation is executed by a device in data communication with the wearable computing device.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the operation is executed by a device in data communication with the wearable computing device, and the operation is adjusting an environmental condition.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the operation is executed by a device in data communication with the wearable computing device, and the operation is adjusting a temperature.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein the log displays the activity as a percentage of the goal.

8. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

receiving another input from the one or more sensors coupled to the wearable computing device over another time period;

processing the another input to generate another signal indicating whether the goal is achieved over the another time period; and

generating another control signal, the another control signal configured to initiate execution of another operation if both the signal indicates the goal is achieved over the time period and the another signal indicates the goal is achieved over the another time period.

9. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more sensors comprises a galvanic skin resistance sensor.

10. The method of claim 1, wherein the data communication is a wireless data communication.

11. A system, comprising:

a memory configured to store data received from a sensor coupled to a wearable computing device over a time period; and

a processor configured to set a goal, the goal comprising a threshold for an activity, to process the data to generate a signal indicating whether the goal is achieved over the time period, to generate a control signal, the control signal configured to initiate execution of an operation if the signal indicates the goal is achieved over the time period, and to display on a user interface in data communication with the wearable computing device a log indicating the activity associated with the data received over the time period.

12. The system of claim 11, wherein the control signal is further configured to initiate execution of another operation if the signal indicates the goal is not achieved over the time period.

13. The system of claim 11, wherein the operation is executed by a device in data communication with the wearable computing device.

14. The system of claim 11, wherein the operation is executed by a device in data communication with the wearable computing device, and the operation is adjusting a lighting.

15. The system of claim 11, wherein the log displays a level of progress towards the goal.

16. The system of claim 11, wherein the operation is displaying a message on the user interface.

17. The system of claim 11, wherein the user interface is on a device in data communication with the wearable computing device.

18. The system of claim 11, wherein the data communication is established using Bluetooth.

19. The system of claim 11, wherein the memory is further configured to store another data received from the sensor coupled to the wearable computing device over another time period;

and the processor is further configured to process the another data to generate another signal indicating whether the goal is achieved over the another time period, and to generate another control signal, the another control signal configured to initiate execution of another operation if both the signal indicates the goal is achieved over the time period and the another signal indicates the goal is achieved over the another time period.

20. A computer program product embodied in a computer readable medium and comprising computer instructions for:

setting a goal, the goal comprising a threshold for an activity;

receiving input from one or more sensors coupled to a wearable computing device over a time period;

processing the input to generate a signal indicating whether the goal is achieved over the time period;

generating a control signal, the control signal configured to initiate execution of an operation if the signal indicates the goal is achieved over the time period; and

displaying on a user interface in data communication with the wearable computing device a log indicating the activity associated with the input received over the time period.
