Biometric monitoring system

1. A computer-implemented method for monitoring biometric information for a user, the computer-implemented method comprising:

receiving, by a computer system, the biometric information corresponding to the user from an activity tracking device worn by the user that generated the biometric information;

identifying, by the computer system, a current activity of the user;

applying, by the computer system, a policy to the biometric information and the current activity of the user;

monitoring, by the computer system, the biometric information corresponding to the user from the activity tracking device worn by the user while the current activity occurs;

generating, by the computer system, an identification of the current activity;

generating, by the computer system, a confidence level percentage value corresponding to the identification of the current activity that is directly related to an amount of information utilized to derive the confidence level percentage value identifying the current activity of the user;

generating, by the computer system, an alert that includes the identification of the current activity, the confidence level percentage value corresponding to the identification of the current activity, an identification of a desired range for the current activity, and an identification of a user-specified recipient corresponding to the alert when the biometric information is out of the desired range for the current activity; and

displaying, by the computer system, the alert that includes the identification of the current activity, the confidence level percentage value corresponding to the identification of the current activity, the identification of the desired range for the current activity, and the identification of the user-specified recipient corresponding to the alert on a display of the activity tracking device worn by the user.

2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the policy identifies a group of desired ranges for a group of activities.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , wherein the group of desired ranges for the group of activities are defined by the user.

4. The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , wherein the policy includes at least one of historical biometric information corresponding to the user and a historical anomaly corresponding to the user.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 further comprising:

identifying, by the computer system, the current activity using information selected from a group consisting of movement information generated by the activity tracking device, heart beat information, user input identifying the current activity, a schedule for the user, and a location of the user.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein generating the alert when the biometric information is out of the desired range for the current activity comprises:

sending, by the computer system, the alert to an assistance provider selected from a group consisting of a care giver, a medical professional, a doctor, and a nurse.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the current activity is selected from a group consisting of at least one of walking, a sports activity, sitting, sleeping, running, and riding a bicycle.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the biometric information is selected from a group consisting of at least one of a heart beat rate, a blood pressure, and a temperature.

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , wherein activity information is used with the biometric information to determine whether to generate the alert and is selected from a group consisting of at least one of location information and movement information.
