Personal monitoring system for a user and method for monitoring a user
First Claim
1. A personal monitoring system for a user, comprising:
- at least one of a sensor for sensing an internal body parameter of said user and a sensor for sensing an ambient parameter of the ambient around said user, an earpiece for being worn at least in part in an ear canal of said user including an acoustic output transducer for providing sound to said user'"'"'s ear canal, an evaluation unit communicating with said sensor, means for individually implementing an individually defined regulation for said sensed parameter into said evaluation unit, said evaluation unit being adapted for monitoring sensed values of said parameter over time and comparing them to said individually defined regulations for said sensed parameter and being adapted for continuously judging whether said sensed values of said parameter comply with said individual regulation or not, and a compliance control unit communicating with said evaluation unit and with said output transducer for providing acoustic signals to a user'"'"'s ear via said output transducer for providing said user with acoustic information regarding a present compliance of said sensed parameter with said implemented individual regulations depending on a judgement made by said evaluation unit.

Abstract
The invention relates to a personal monitoring system for a user, comprising: at least one of a sensor (26, 28) for sensing an internal body parameter of the user and a sensor (14, 26, 28) for sensing an ambient parameter of the ambient around said user, an earpiece (10) for being worn at least in part in the ear canal of the user including an acoustic output transducer (18) for providing sound to the user'"'"'s ear canal, an evaluation unit (22) communicating with the sensor, means (32, 34) for individually implementing an individually defined regulation for the sensed parameter into said evaluation unit, the evaluation unit being adapted for monitoring sensed values of the parameter over time and comparing them to the individually defined regulations for the sensed parameter and being adapted for continuously judging whether the sensed values of the parameter comply with the individual regulation or not, and a compliance control unit (24) communicating with the evaluation unit and with the output transducer for providing acoustic signals to the user'"'"'s ear via the output transducer for providing the user with acoustic information regarding the present compliance of the sensed parameter with the implemented individual regulations depending on the judgement made by the evaluation unit.

22. A method for monitoring a user, comprising:
-
sensing at least one of an internal body parameter of said user and an ambient parameter of the ambient around said user; individually implementing an individually defined regulation for said sensed parameter into an evaluation unit; monitoring, by said evaluation unit, sensed values of said parameter over time and comparing them to said individually defined regulations for said sensed parameter; continuously judging, by said evaluation unit, whether said sensed values of said parameter comply with said individual regulation or not; providing acoustic signals to a user'"'"'s ear via an output transducer located in an earpiece worn at least in part in an ear canal of said user for providing said user with acoustic feedback regarding a present compliance of said sensed parameter with said implemented individual regulation depending on a judgement made by said evaluation unit. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47)
