System and method for monitoring biometric data

1. A method for monitoring biometric data comprising:

authenticating a user;

providing content to a user device associated with the user;

obtaining biometric data associated with the user;

comparing the biometric data to one or more threshold values;

generating one or more data sets based on the comparing step;

selecting suitable content for a user based on the comparing step; and

providing the selected suitable content to the user.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the obtaining step further comprises: obtaining the biometric data at a specified periodic interval.

3. The method as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the biometric data is retina data of a user.

4. The method as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the biometric data is blood pressure data of a user.

5. The method as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the biometric data is breathalyzer data of a user.

6. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

generating an alert condition based on the data sets; and

transmitting the alert condition to a designated location.

7. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the providing content step further comprises:

identifying a particular genre of content to be provided to a user device based on the data sets.

8. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

monitoring a period of time that content is being provided to a user device;

comparing the period of time to a predetermined period of time; and

terminating the provision of content based on the comparing step.

9. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

generating a representation of the data sets; and

providing the representation of the data sets to a user.

10. A method for monitoring biometric data comprising:

authenticating a user;

providing content to a user device associated with the user;

obtaining biometric data associated with the user;

accessing threshold data that provides a baseline;

comparing the biometric data to one or more threshold values; and

utilizing the threshold data to produce the one or more threshold values.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the obtaining step further comprises: obtaining the biometric data at a specified periodic interval; and the biometric data is breathalyzer data of a user.

12. A method for monitoring biometric data comprising:

authenticating a user;

providing advertisement content to a user device associated with the user;

obtaining user biometric data while the advertisement content is being provided to the user;

comparing the biometric data to one or more threshold values; and

generating one or more data sets based on the comparing step.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the obtaining step further comprises: obtaining the biometric data at a specified periodic interval; and the biometric data is breathalyzer data of a user.

14. A method for permitting access to device functionality comprising:

authenticating a user;

storing baseline data representing a predetermined condition of the user obtaining biometric data associated with the user;

comparing the biometric data to one or more threshold values, said threshold values being dependent upon said baseline data; and

identifying device functionality that the user is permitted to access based on the comparing step.

15. The method as claimed in claim 14 further comprising:

obtaining updated biometric data;

performing a comparison between the updated biometric data and the one or more threshold values; and

identifying device functionality that the user is permitted to access based on the comparison step using the updated biometric data.

16. A system for monitoring biometric data of a user comprising:

a display to provide content to the user;

a data store configured to store baseline data representing a predetermined condition of the user;

at least one sensor to obtain biometric data associated with the user;

a comparator coupled to said at least one sensor through a network and configured to compare the biometric data to one or more threshold values, said threshold values being dependent upon said baseline data; and

a data set generator configured to generate one or more data sets based on the comparison.

17. The system as claimed in claim 16 , wherein said data sets are alert conditions.

18. The system as claimed in claim 17 , further comprising a transmitter coupled to said data set generator and configured to transmit said alert conditions to a designated location.

19. The system of claim 16 , further comprising a source of content configured to transmit said content to said display dependent upon said comparison.
