Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a wearable computing device, an indication of an acceleration experienced by the wearable computing device, wherein the indication of the acceleration comprises at least a signal from a sensor coupled to a vehicle air bag;
based on the indication of the acceleration, determining, by the wearable computing device, that the acceleration exceeds a threshold value corresponding to deployment of the vehicle air bag; and
in response to determining that the acceleration exceeds the threshold value corresponding to deployment of the vehicle air bag, performing, by the wearable computing device, a diagnostic procedure including one or more of the following procedures;
an eye response test using a detector of the wearable computing device, a verbal response test using a microphone of the wearable computing device, a motor response test using at least one sensor of the wearable computing device, and a visual diagnostic test using at least one sensor of the wearable computing device.

Abstract
The present disclosure describes example systems and methods for identifying an indication of an injury of a user of a wearable computing device. The systems and methods may be directed to determining that an acceleration experienced by the wearable computing device exceeds a threshold value. In response, the wearable computing device may perform a diagnostic procedure in order to identify an indication of an injury experienced by the user of the wearable computing device. The diagnostic procedure may include one or more of an eye response test, a verbal response test, a motor response test, and a visual diagnostic test.
