SENSOR BASED PRODUCT RECOMMENDATIONS
First Claim
1. A method for generating an item recommendation, the method comprising:
- collecting sensor data with a sensor client machine;
transferring the collected sensor data to a server;
estimating user physical activity based on collected sensor data patterns;
forming a user profile based on the estimated user physical activity;
associating the user profile with an item recommendation; and
displaying the item recommendation to a user.

Abstract
A system, method, and computer program product for generating item recommendations based on sensor data captured by sensors on client machines. A server processes collected sensor data to estimate user physical activity based on sensor data patterns, and forms a user profile based on the estimated user physical activity. The server associates the user profile with relevant product or service recommendations, based on previous purchases by a user or by others matching the user profile. The user may make a purchase based on the displayed recommendations or forward the recommendations to others. The recommendations include discounts based on the user profile. Subsequent sensor data showing satisfaction with a purchased item serves as a testimonial to user satisfaction with the item. The sensor data may be collected from a user in an augmented or virtual reality system, and the recommendations may be displayed in such a system.

11. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having embedded therein a set of instructions which, when executed by one or more processors of a computer, causes the computer to execute the following operations for generating an item recommendation:
-
collecting sensor data with a sensor in a client machine; transferring the collected sensor data to a server; estimating user physical activity with the server based on collected sensor data patterns; forming a user profile based on the estimated user physical activity; associating the user profile with an item recommendation; and displaying the item recommendation to a user. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A system for generating an item recommendation, the system comprising:
-
at least one client machine that collects sensor data with at least one sensor and transfers the collected sensor data to a server that; estimates user physical activity with the server based on patterns in the collected sensor data; forms a user profile based on the estimated user physical activity; associates the user profile with at least one item recommendation; and a display that presents the item recommendation to the user.
