Wearable devices for sensing and communicating data associated with a user
First Claim
1. A wearable device for sensing and communicating data associated with a condition of a user, the wearable device comprising:
- a biometric sensor unit configured to sense biometric data associated with a physiological condition of the user; and
a control unit operatively coupled to the biometric sensor unit and a display unit, the control unit comprising;
at least one processor configured to receive indications of the sensed biometric data and cause the display unit to display at least one visual representation of the biometric data to the user, andat least one communication unit, the communication unit configured to;
determine whether the wearable device is within a communication range of a remote unit,responsive to determining that the wearable device is within the communication range of the remote unit, perform at least one of transmitting and receiving information associated with the sensed biometric data to and from the remote unit, respectively, andresponsive to determining that the wearable device is not within the communication range of the remote unit, perform at least one of transmitting and receiving information associated with the sensed biometric data to and from a predetermined mobile device, respectively.

17. A method for detecting and communicating data associated with a condition of a user of a wearable biometric device, the method comprising:
-
receiving, from the wearable biometric device and at a gateway device, biometric data associated with a physiological condition of the user, the biometric data being detected by a biometric sensor unit of the wearable biometric device; determining, by the gateway device, whether a communication module of the gateway device can establish or maintain a viable connection to a mobile network; and responsive to determining that the communication module cannot establish or maintain a viable connection to the mobile network, broadcasting, by a router module of the gateway device, a wireless local network such that a command communication device can access, via the gateway device, data detected by the wearable biometric device. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
