1. A biometric monitoring system comprising:
- a housing configured to be worn on a user'"'"'s forearm or insertable into an accessory worn on the user'"'"'s forearm;
an barometric altimeter configured to generate data associated with pressure changes measured by the barometric altimeter;
a memory; and
control logic, wherein;
the control logic, the memory, and the barometric altimeter are communicatively connected with one another, andthe control logic is configured to;
a) obtain data generated by the barometric altimeter from the barometric altimeter,b) determine, based, at least in part, on the data generated by the barometric altimeter, one or more of;
(i) a stroke count of the user, (ii) a swim stroke type of the user, and (iii) a lap count of the user, andc) cause information associated with the determination of (b) to be presented to the user.

Abstract
Biometric monitoring devices, including various technologies that may be implemented in such devices, are discussed herein. Additionally, techniques for utilizing gyroscopes in biometric monitoring devices are provided. Such techniques may, in some implementations, involve obtaining swimming metrics regarding stroke cycle count, lap count, and stroke type. Such techniques may also, in some implementations, involve obtaining performance metrics for bicycling activities.
