1. A method for providing a firmware update to a wearable sensor device, the firmware update being customized for a particular user that uses the wearable sensor device, the method comprising:

  • receiving, by a mobile device, information about a particular user that uses a wearable sensor device that includes one or more sensors for generating sensor data during one or more activities performed by the particular user;

    determining, from the information about the particular user, that a first version of firmware installed on the wearable sensor device for controlling at least one of the one or more sensors is not optimal;

    generating a second version of the firmware, the second version of the firmware being customized, based on the information about the particular user, to control the at least one of the one or more sensors in a more optimal manner; and

    transmitting, by the mobile device, the second version of the firmware to the wearable sensor device such that the second version of the firmware is installed on the wearable sensor device to control the at least one of the one or more sensors in the more optimal manner.
