DEVICE FOR PHYSIOLOGICAL MONITORING AND MEASUREMENT
First Claim
1. A device for physiological monitoring and measurement comprising:
- a continuously wearable physiological measurement device including one or more sensors configured to continuously monitor and determine a heart rate of a user;
a display device coupled to the continuously wearable physiological measurement device;
a strap attached to the continuously wearable physiological measurement device and couplable to an appendage of the user; and
a processor in the continuously wearable physiological measurement device, the processor coupled to the one or more sensors and the processor configured to;
programmatically receive heart rate data for the user from the continuously wearable physiological measurement device, the heart rate data including a time series of heart rate data for the user, a maximum heart rate of the user, and a resting heart rate of the user;
transform the heart rate data including the time series of heart rate data, the maximum heart rate and the resting heart rate to a time series of heart rate reserve data;
weight the heart rate reserve data according to a weighting scheme to provide a weighted time series of heart rate reserve values;
programmatically generate an intensity score providing an indicator of cardiovascular intensity based on the weighted time series of heart rate reserve values; and
display the intensity score on a user interface rendered on the display device.

Abstract
Continuous monitoring of a plurality of physiological data may be used for health and fitness improvements for a user. To this end, a physiological monitoring and measurement device may include a wearable strap that receives heart rate data for a user including a time series of heart rate data, a maximum heart rate, and a resting heart rate. A processor may transform the heart rate data into a time series of heart rate reserve data that is weighted, e.g., to account for cardiovascular efficiencies at different intensity levels, to provide a weighted time series of heart rate reserve values. An intensity score that provides an indicator of cardiovascular intensity for an exercise routine may be generated from the weighted time series of heart rate reserve values and displayed to the user on the wearable strap.
