Abstract

A system for anticipating activity includes an apparatus for anticipating activity. The apparatus includes an activity anticipation module that anticipates an activity based on an archive. The archive includes historical information associated with past activity. The apparatus also includes an encouragement module that provides encouragement for the activity. The encouragement is based on the archive and the activity.

Claims

1. An apparatus for anticipating activity, comprising:

an activity anticipation module that anticipates an activity based on an archive, the archive comprising historical information associated with past activity; and

an encouragement module that provides encouragement for the activity, wherein the encouragement is based on the archive and the activity.

2. The apparatus of claim 1, further comprising a notification module that provides a notification associated with the activity.

3. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the notification module provides the notification via social media.

4. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the notification module provides the notification to an electronic device.

5. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the encouragement comprises media content.

6. The apparatus of claim 5, wherein the media content is selected based on the archive indicating an association between the media content and the activity.

7. The apparatus of claim 1, further comprising a target goal module that provides a set of target goals for the activity, wherein each target goal is based on the archive and the activity.

9. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein at least one of the activity anticipation module and the encouragement module is embodied in a wearable sensor.

8. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein the set of target goals comprises at least one of a target activity type, a target activity intensity, and a target activity duration.

10. A method for anticipating activity, comprising:

anticipating an activity based on an archive, the archive comprising historical information associated with past activity; and

providing encouragement for the activity, wherein the encouragement is based on the archive and the activity.

11. The method of claim 10, further comprising providing a notification associated with the activity.

12. The method of claim 11, wherein the notification is provided via social media.

13. The method of claim 11, wherein the notification is delivered to an electronic device.

14. The method of claim 10, wherein the encouragement comprises media content.

15. The method of claim 14, wherein the media content comprises a set of songs.

16. The method of claim 14, wherein the media content is selected based on the archive indicating an association between the media content and the activity.

17. The method of claim 10, further comprising providing a set of target goals for the activity, wherein each target goal is based on the archive and the activity.

18. The method of claim 17, wherein the set of target goals comprises at least one of a target activity type, a target activity intensity, and a target activity duration.

19. The method of claim 10, wherein at least one of the operations of anticipating the activity and providing encouragement for the activity comprises using a sensor configured to be attached to the body of a user.

20. A system for providing a sleep recommendation, comprising:

a processor; and

at least one computer program residing on the processor;

wherein the computer program is stored on a non-transitory computer readable medium having computer executable program code embodied thereon, the computer executable program code configured to;

anticipate an activity based on an archive, the archive comprising historical information associated with past activity; and

provide encouragement for the activity, wherein the encouragement is based on the archive and the activity.
