1. A system, comprising:
- at least one sensor coupled to a user'"'"'s body;
a controller communicatively coupled to the sensor; and
logic configured to discover the sensor by transmitting a broadcast message and receiving in response data indicative of the sensor, the data comprising at least an identifier identifying the sensor, the logic further configured to store the identifier corresponding to the sensor, to instruct a user, via an electronic device, to place the sensor at a particular location on the user'"'"'s body, and in response to detected movement of the sensor, the logic stores data indicative of the location associated with identifier data.

Abstract
A system has at least one sensor and a controller communicatively coupled to the sensor. In addition, the system has logic that discovers the sensor and stores a unique identifier corresponding to the sensor. Further, the logic further instructs a user to place the sensor at a particular location and store data indicative of the location associated with a unique identifier.

16. A method, comprising the steps:
-
discovering an electronic bioinformatics sensor located on a user'"'"'s body by transmitting a broadcast request; receiving in response data indicative of the sensor, the data comprising an identifier specifying the sensor; storing the identifier corresponding to the sensor; instructing a user, via an electronic device, to place the sensor at a particular location on the user'"'"'s body; determining, based upon and after the user'"'"'s placement of the sensor on the particular location, the location of the sensor relative to the user'"'"'s body; and in response to detected movement of the sensor, storing data indicative of the location associated with the identifier. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28)
