1. A receiver for receiving a transducer signal, comprising:
- a receiving element operative to receive, during the user'"'"'s workout, the output of a transducer, the transducer operative to detect movement of a user; and
a processor operative to;
assess boundary conditions of the transducer output;
exclude certain conditions from determinations of characteristics of the user'"'"'s workout; and
process the output of the transducer during the user'"'"'s workout to determine the characteristics of the user'"'"'s workout.

Abstract
An activity monitor, comprises housing for attachment to a person; at least one accelerometer disposed within the housing; and a processor disposed within the housing, for processing signals from the accelerometer to assess activity of the person. A method assesses activity of a person, including: sensing acceleration at a first location on the person; processing the acceleration, over time, to assess activity of the person; and wirelessly communicating information indicative of the activity to a second location.

16. A system for communicating data associated with a user'"'"'s workout comprising:
-
a transmitter comprising; a transducer operative to detect movement of a user during a workout; and a transmitting element operative to transmit data related to movement detected by the transducer as the movement is detected; and a receiver comprising; a receiving element operative to receive, during the user'"'"'s workout, the data transmitted by the transmitting element; a processor operative to assess boundary conditions of the received data and exclude certain conditions from determinations of characteristics of the user'"'"'s workout; and a display operative to display the characteristics of the user'"'"'s workout determined from the received data during the user'"'"'s workout. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
