Portable monitoring devices for processing applications and processing analysis of physiological conditions of a user associated with the portable monitoring device
First Claim
1. An activity monitoring device, comprising,a housing configured for attachment to a body part of a user;
- a display screen attached to the housing;
a sensor for capturing physiological conditions of the user, the sensor being disposed along a surface of the housing so that the sensor is proximate to the body part, the body part having at least some exposed skin;
memory for storing the captured physiological conditions; and
a processor for examining the captured physiological conditions, and at a particular time, automatically selecting an application to execute from a plurality of applications based on characteristics of the captured physiological conditions;
wherein the plurality of applications are stored in memory of the activity monitoring device and the processor executes instructions for the automatic selection of the application,wherein the processor selects one of a plurality of applications including a watch function, or a pedometer function, or a communication function, or a biometric analysis function, or a sleep tracking function, or a calendar function, or an environmental analysis function, or a geo-location function, or a mapping function, or a heart rate analysis function, or a sedentary tracking function, or a motion data analysis function, or a combination of two or more thereof.

Abstract
An activity monitoring device and associated methods for using and interfacing with the activity monitoring device are provided. In one example, the activity monitoring device includes a housing configured for attachment to a body part of a user. Also included ins a display screen attached to the housing and a sensor for capturing physiological conditions of the user. The sensor is disposed along a surface of the housing so that the sensor is proximate to the body part, the body part having at least some exposed skin. The activity monitoring device also includes memory for storing the captured physiological conditions, and a processor for examining the captured physiological conditions. At a particular time, the processor automatically selects an application to execute from a plurality of applications based on characteristics of the captured physiological conditions.

12. An activity monitoring device, comprising, a wrist band;
- a display screen disposed on a housing, the wrist band being coupled to the housing;
a sensor disposed in the housing to capture data associated with a user;
memory disposed in the housing for storing the captured data and for storing one or more applications; and
a processor in communication with the housing and the display screen, the processor configured to automatically select for execution execute the one or more applications of a plurality of applications for rendering to render content associated with the one or more applications on the display screen, at least one of the applications being configured to present metrics regarding the captured data of the sensor, the captured data including one of motion data by the user, environmental data, biometric data of the user, or combinations of two or more thereof, the processor enabling user access to the one or more applications wherein the plurality of applications are stored in memory of the activity monitoring device and the processor executes instructions for the automatic selection of the application,wherein the processor selects one of a plurality of applications including a watch function, or a pedometer function, or a communication function, or a biometric analysis function, or a sleep tracking function, or a calendar function, or an environmental analysis function, or a geo-location function, or a mapping function, or a heart rate analysis function, or a sedentary tracking function, or a motion data analysis function, or a combination of two or more thereof; and wherein the processor is configured to cause rendering of a user interface on the display screen wherein the automatic selection is based on characteristics of the captured data. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
