Systems and methods for using wearable technology for biometric-based recommendations
View Patent ↗Methods and systems are disclosed herein for determining a biometric state of a user or an emotional state of a user. Based on the determined biometric state or emotional state, a determination is made whether information about a location is restricted. In response to determining that information about a location is restricted, a portion of the information about the location is identified, and access to the portion of the information is disabled.
1. A method of restricting, based on biometric conditions of a first person, access to information about a location of a second person different from the first person, the method comprising:
determining, using control circuitry, a biometric state and an emotional state of the first person;
retrieving, using the control circuitry, based on the biometric state and the emotional state of the first person, from a database, the information about the location to be restricted;
identifying, using the control circuitry, a portion of the information that is to be restricted about the location of the second person different from the first person; and
disabling, using the control circuitry, access for the first person to the portion of the information that is to be restricted about the location of the second person different from the first person, such that the first person with the determined biometric state and the determined emotional state is unable to view the portion of the information about the location of the second person.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the biometric state comprises one of a heart rate, pulse, blood oxygen level, body temperature, and brain activity.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
identifying a portion of the information about the location that is not restricted; and
in response to a user request, by the first person, for available information about the location, generating for display the portion of the information about the location that is not restricted.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the portion of the information about the location that is restricted relates to geographical coordinates.
5. The method of claim 3 , wherein disabling access to the portion of the information about the location that is restricted further comprises filtering data provided to the first person.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein identifying the portion of the information that is restricted, further comprises:
receiving criteria for the portion of the information about the location that is restricted;
comparing the information about the location to the criteria.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the portion of the information about the location that is restricted is based at least in part on a current time of day.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the portion of the information about the location that is restricted is based at least in part on a current location of the first person.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the portion of the information about the location that is restricted is based at least in part on a likelihood that the first person may reach the location given the biometric state of the first person.
10. A system for restricting, based on biometric conditions of a first person, access to information about a location of a second person different from the first person, the system comprising:
detecting circuitry configured to determine a biometric state of the first person, wherein the first person is a user of the system; and
control circuitry configured to:
determine an emotional state of the first person;
retrieve based on the biometric state and the emotional state of the first person, from a database, the information about the location to be restricted;
identify a portion of the information that is to be restricted about the location of the second person different from the first person; and
disable access for the first person to the portion of the information that is to be restricted about the location of the second person different from the first person, such that the user first person with the determined biometric state and the determined emotional state is unable to view the portion of the information about the location of the second person.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the biometric state comprises one of a heart rate, pulse, blood oxygen level, body temperature, and brain activity.
12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:
identify a portion of the information about the location that is not restricted; and
generate for display, the portion of the information about the location that is not restricted, in response to a user request, by the first person, for available information about the location.
13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the portion of the information about the location that is restricted relates to geographical coordinates.
14. The system of claim 12 , wherein the control circuitry is configured to disable access to the portion of the information about the location that is restricted further by filtering data provided to the first person.
15. The system of claim 10 , wherein the control circuitry is configured to identify the portion of the information about the location that is restricted by:
receiving criteria for the portion of the information about the location that is restricted; and
comparing the information about the location to the criteria.
16. The system of claim 10 , wherein the portion of the information about the location that is restricted is based at least in part on a current time of day.
17. The system of claim 10 , wherein the portion of the information about the location that is restricted is based at least in part on a current location of the first person.
18. The system of claim 10 , wherein the portion of the information about the location that is restricted is based at least in part on a likelihood that the first person may reach the location given the biometric state of the first person.
