Abstract
The present inventions, in one aspect, are directed to a system comprising a portable sensor device including a housing having a physical size/shape that is adapted to couple to a user'"'"'s body, an identification tag including identification data which is associated with the sensor device and an identification tag transmitter to responsively and wirelessly transmit the identification data according to a first communication protocol. The system further includes a portable electronic device including an identification tag receiver to wirelessly receive the identification data of the identification tag according to the first communication protocol, transceiver circuitry to wirelessly and responsively communicate with the sensor device according to a second communication protocol, and processing circuitry to instruct the transceiver circuitry, after receiving the identification data, to wirelessly request, from the sensor device the sensor data and/or data which is representative of the sensor data.

2. An activity tracking device having a size and shape adapted for physical coupling with a user, the activity tracking device comprising:
-
one or more sensors to generate sensor data, the sensor data including activity and/or biometric sensor data related to the user and/or environmental sensor data related to an environment around the user; an identification tag including identification data, the identification data including first information about actions and/or operations associated with the particular activity tracking device; and an identification tag transmitter, electrically coupled with the identification tag, to wirelessly transmit the identification data of the identification tag according to a first communication protocol responsive to coming within a proximity of a wireless reader, thereby causing the wireless reader to perform, or cause a processing device to perform, the actions and/or operations included in the identification data. - View Dependent Claims (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31)
