US Patent:
7959567, Jun 14, 2011
Filed:
Oct 22, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/876623
Inventors:
John Stivoric - Pittsburgh PA, US
Christopher Pacione - Pittsburgh PA, US
Eric Teller - Pittsburgh PA, US
David Andre - Pittsburgh PA, US
Christopher Kasabach - Pittsburgh PA, US
Scott Boehmke - Wexford PA, US
Suresh Vishnubhatla - Wexford PA, US
Scott Safier - Pittsburgh PA, US
Jonathan Farringdon - Pittsburgh PA, US
Raymond Pelletier - Pittsburgh PA, US
Assignee:
BodyMedia, Inc. - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
A61B 5/00
US Classification:
600300, 434127, 128921
Abstract:
A monitoring apparatus that includes a sensor device and an I/O device in communication with the sensor device that generates derived data using the data from the sensor device. The derived data cannot be directly detected by the associated sensors. Alternatively, an apparatus that includes a wearable sensor device and an I/O device in communication with the sensor device that includes means for displaying information and a dial for entering information. Alternatively, an apparatus for tracking caloric consumption and caloric expenditure data that includes a sensor device and an I/O device in communication with the sensor device. The sensor device includes a processor programmed to generate data relating to caloric expenditure from sensor data. Alternatively, an apparatus for tracking caloric information for an individual that utilizes a plurality of classification identifiers for classifying meals consumed by the individual, each of the classification identifiers having a corresponding caloric amount.

US Patent:
8157731, Apr 17, 2012
Filed:
Oct 9, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/682293
Inventors:
Eric Teller - Pittsburgh PA, US
Jonathan Farringdon - Pittsburgh PA, US
David Andre - Pittsburgh PA, US
Christopher Pacione - Pittsburgh PA, US
John Stivoric - Pittsburgh PA, US
Scott Safier - Pittsburgh PA, US
Raymond Pelletier - Pittsburgh PA, US

Assignee:
BodyMedia, Inc. - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
A61B 5/00
US Classification:
600301, 600595, 600547, 600549, 128921
Abstract:
Various methods and apparatuses for measuring a state parameter of an individual using signals based on one or more sensors are disclosed. In one embodiment, a first set of signals is used in a first function to determine how a second set of signals is used in one or more second functions to predict the state parameter. In another embodiment, first and second functions are used where the state parameter or an indicator of the state parameter may be obtained from a relationship between the first function and the second function. The state parameter may, for example, include calories consumed or calories burned by the individual. Various methods for making such apparatuses are also disclosed.

Assignee:
BodyMedia, Inc. - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
A61B 5/00
US Classification:
600300, 600301, 128920, 128921, 705 2, 705 3, 706 45
Abstract:
A nutrition and activity management system is disclosed that monitors energy expenditure of an individual through the use of a body-mounted sensing apparatus. The apparatus is particularly adapted for continuous wear. The system is also adaptable or applicable to measuring a number of other physiological parameters and reporting the same and derivations of such parameters. A weight management embodiment is directed to achieving an optimum or preselected energy balance between calories consumed and energy expended by the user. An adaptable computerized nutritional tracking system is utilized to obtain data regarding food consumed, Relevant and predictive feedback is provided to the user regarding the mutual effect of the user's energy expenditure, food consumption and other measured or derived or manually input physiological contextual parameters upon progress toward said goal.
