Abstract

A monitoring device, with one or more sensors detects or measures individual information selected from of at least one of, an individual's activities, behaviors and habit information, and an individual's health. The monitoring device includes ID circuitry with an ID storage that contains a unique individual ID, a communication system which reads and transmits the unique individual ID from the ID storage, a power source and a pathway system. A telemetry system is in communication with the monitoring device. An activity manager is in communication with the monitoring device. The activity manager provides information analysis of the individual information received from the monitoring device, the individual information selected from at least one of, individual physiological information, information that is indicative of the individual's activities, data indicative of one or more contextual parameters of the individual and monitoring a degree to which an individual has followed a routine.

Claims (22)

1. A system for determining sleep monitored information about an individual, comprising:

a monitoring device that includes a microphone, an RF transmitter and sensors to determine air quality, sound level/quality, light quality and ambient temperature near the individual configured to assist to determine individual sleep information and sleep behavior information, the RF transmitter serving as a communication device;

an accelerometer configured to detect a user's movement information, the accelerometer and the monitoring system configured to assist to determine individual sleep information and sleep behavior information, the microphone configured to record user movement sounds detected by the accelerometer, the accelerometer configured to cause the microphone to stop recording user movement sounds when the movement sounds are not directed to a sleep related parameter;

a telemetry system in communication with the monitoring device;

a sleep related activity manager in communication with the monitoring device, the sleep related activity manager analyzing telemetry data based on sleep onset and wake time, sleep interruptions, and the quality and depth of sleep; and

a feedback system or subsystem in communication with the sleep related activity manager and in operation is configured to communicate the sleep related information.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the sleep related activity manager is included with the telemetry system.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the feedback system is included with the telemetry system.

4. The system of claim 1 , further comprising:

one or more analysis tools at the sleep related activity manager.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the telemetry system in operation receives an individual survey.

6. The system of either claim 1 , wherein the feedback is in graphical form.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the feedback system or subsystem in operation generates one or more web pages containing feedback.

8. The system of claim 1 , further comprising:

an alert at the monitoring system.

9. The system of claim 1 , further comprising:

a sleep related activity database.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the sleep related activity manager includes the sleep related activity database.

11. The system of claim 1 , further comprising:

a GPS at the monitoring device.

12. The system of claim 1 , further comprising:

an alarm at the monitoring device.
