METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DATA COLLECTION, ANALYSIS, FORMULATION AND REPORTING OF USER-SPECIFIC FEEDBACK
First Claim
1. A method for formulating user-specific feedback, comprising:
- a. providing an electronic user interface for populating user information;
b. providing an electronic user interface for selecting a user-desired objective selected from the group of physical training objectives, physical rehabilitation objectives; and
medical condition objectives;
c. providing a host system capable of;
receiving the user information, the user-desired physical training objective, and user biometric information sensed by a user-worn or user-carried sensing system;
analyzing the user information, user-desired physical training or medical condition improvement objective and user biometric information; and
formulating user-specific feedback for guiding a user to achieve the user-desired objective; and
d. providing a user interface for communicating the user-specific feedback to the user.

Abstract
Methods and systems provide user-specific feedback and recommendations to a user based on a user profile, contextual and/or biometric data, which may be collected using a sensing system, such as a wearable sensor device(s). A host system formulates and provides reports to the user relating to the user'"'"'s sensed activities or conditions, and may also provide recommendations relating to performance and goal achievement, injury prevention, what/if analysis, gait analysis, shoe purchase suggestions, and the like. Data analysis algorithms may be used to identify similar patterns across large collections of user profiles and biometric data and apply data generated across a larger population to formulate recommendations for specific users.
