DETECTING ACTIVITY BY A WHEELCHAIR USER
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for tracking activity by a wheelchair user, the method comprising:
- collecting motion data of a user device located on an appendage of the user;
detecting, by a processor circuit, that one or more activities by the wheelchair user occurred based on the motion data;
estimating, by a processor circuit, an energy expenditure by the user based on the one or more activities; and
outputting, by a processor circuit, the estimated energy expenditure.

Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a system and method of detecting activity by a wheelchair user. In one aspect, a method comprises collecting motion data of a user device located on an appendage of the user; detecting, by a processor circuit, that one or more activities by the wheelchair user occurred based on the motion data; calculating, by a processor circuit, an energy expenditure by the user based the one or more activities by the wheelchair user occurred; and outputting, by a processor circuit, the energy expenditure estimation.

35. A system for tracking activity by a wheelchair user comprising:
-
a motion sensor located on an appendage of the user and configured to collect motion data; a processor circuit coupled to the motion sensor and configured to execute instructions causing the processor circuit to; collect motion data of a user device located on an appendage of the user; detect, by a processor circuit, that one or more activities by the wheelchair user occurred based on the motion data; calculate, by a processor circuit, an energy expenditure by the user based detecting that the one or more activities by the wheelchair user occurred; and output, by a processor circuit, the energy expenditure estimation.
