Weight Scale Data Hub

1 . A data hub device for use by a user, the user being associated to one or more activity data collection devices each activity data collection device having a transmitter configured to transmit a data signal corresponding to a plurality of activity data of the user collected at individual ones of the one or more activity data collection devices, the data hub device comprising:

a standing surface for supporting the user;

a weight scale configured to generate a weight signal based on the weight of the user supported by the standing surface;

a receiver configured to receive the data signal corresponding to the plurality of activity of the user collected at the individual ones of the one or more activity data collection devices; and

a processor configured to utilize the plurality of activity data of the user to generate a data signature representative of all activity of the user for a 24 hour period of time;

a memory configured to store an association of the data signature and the weight signal to a profile of the user.

2 . The data hub device of claim 1 , further comprising a display configured to display the weight of the user and to display additional user data, the additional user data being based at least in part on the received data signal.

3 . The data hub device of claim 2 ,

wherein the memory has a second signature stored therein, the second signature representative of all of the activity of the user for a second 24 hour period of time;

wherein the processing component is further configured to generate a comparison signal based on a comparison of the data signature to the second signature; and

wherein the display is configured to display the additional user data based on the comparison signal.

4 . The data hub device of claim 1 , further comprising a transmitter configured to transmit a handshake signal to the one or more activity collecting devices when the standing surface supports the user.

5 . The data hub device of claim 2 , wherein the transmitter is further configured to transmit the weight of the user and the additional user data to a remote receiver apparatus.

6 . The device data hub of claim 1 , wherein the receiver is configured to receive the data signal as at least one of: a Bluetooth signal, a Wi-Fi signal and an RF signal.

7 . A scale configured as a data hub for a plurality of activity data collection devices, the scale comprising:

a surface on which the user stands, the surface being configured to output data relating to body mass of the user upon standing thereon;

a transmitter configured to establish communication with the plurality of activity data collection devices associated to the user;

a receiver configured to receive a plurality of activity data from the plurality of activity data collection devices, the activity data relating to a particular 24 hour time period;

a storage apparatus configured to store the data relating to the body mass of the user and the plurality of activity data; and

a processor configured to execute computer readable instructions which are configured to when executed by the processor:

process the plurality of activity data to generate one or more activity signatures representative thereof; and

associate the one or more activity signatures to the body mass data output.

8 . The scale of claim 7 , wherein the communication between the scale and the plurality of activity data collection devices comprises communication in association with a handshake protocol.

9 . The scale of claim 7 , wherein the plurality of activity data is received from the plurality of activity collection devices wirelessly.

10 . The scale of claim 7 , wherein the computer readable instructions are further configured to process the data relating to the body mass of the user and/or the plurality of activity data via one or more preparation steps to enable the data to be displayed at a display device of the scale.

11 . The scale of claim 7 , wherein the computer readable instructions are further configured to process the data relating to the body mass of the user and/or the plurality of activity data via comparison to corresponding ones of previously recorded body mass and/or activity data stored at the storage apparatus.

12 . The scale of claim 11 , wherein the comparison comprises a comparison of the one or more activity signatures to a second one or more signatures associated to the corresponding ones of the previously recorded body mass and/or activity data stored at the storage apparatus.

13 . The scale of claim 7 , wherein the computer readable instructions are further configured to cause the transmitter to transmit the processed data to one or more remote devices.

14 . A method, comprising:

activating a scale via a user applying body weight to the scale;

determining a body weight of the user;

identifying one or more activity data collection devices associated to the user;

attempting a handshake between the scale and the one or more activity collection devices;

in response to a successful handshake therebetween, wirelessly receiving activity data collected by the one or more activity data collection devices at a receiver of the scale;

generating an activity signature representative of all activity of the user during a 24 hour time period; and

associating the activity signature and the determined body weight of the user to a user profile stored at the scale.

15 . The method of claim 14 , further comprising displaying at the scale at least one of: the body weight of the user and/or the received activity data.

16 . The method of claim 15 , further comprising transmitting at least one of the body weight of the user and/or the received activity data from the scale to remote device for display thereat.

17 . The method of claim 14 , further comprising comparing at least the received activity data to previously recorded and stored activity data for the user; the comparison and the storage occurring at the scale.

18 . The method of claim 17 , wherein the act of comparing comprises comparing the activity signature to one or more stored signatures representative of previous 24 hour time periods.

19 . The method of claim 17 , further comprising displaying the comparison of at least the received activity data and the previously recorded and stored activity data for the user at the scale.

20 . The method of claim 17 , further comprising transmitting the comparison of the at least received activity data and the previously recorded and stored activity data for the user from the scale to separate device for display thereof.
