Monitoring device with selectable wireless communication
One or more sensors are coupled to a monitoring device which has a unique user ID. The one or more sensors acquire user information selected from of at least one of, a user's activities, behaviors and habit information. ID circuitry including ID storage, a communication system that reads and transmits the unique ID from an ID storage, a power source and a pathway system to route signals through the circuitry is at the monitoring device. A multi-protocol wireless controller coupled to one or more wireless interfaces is at the monitoring device and characterizes available networks to determine current network information. A wireless connectivity assistant is at the monitoring device and selects one of the available networks based on the current network information and at least one of user preferences, application requirements and system information. A telemetry system is in communication with the monitoring device.
1. A user monitoring device system, comprising:
a user monitoring device that includes a microphone and one or more sensors to determine air quality, sound level/quality, light quality or ambient temperature near the user, a motion detection device included in the user monitoring device configured to detect a user's movement information, the motion detection device and the monitoring system configured to assist to determine user sleep monitoring, sleep information and sleep behavior information, the microphone configured to record user movement sounds detected by the motion detection device, the motion detection device configured to cause the microphone to stop recording user movement sounds when the movement sounds are not directed to sleep monitoring, sleep information and sleep behavior information; and
a telemetry system in communication with the motion detection device and the monitoring device, the telemetry system configured to assist to determine user sleep monitoring, sleep information and sleep behavior information; that can be stored in the database.
2. The system of claim 1 , further comprising: a unique user ID.
3. The system of claim 2 , further comprising:
ID circuitry, the ID circuitry including ID storage, a communication system that reads and transmits the unique ID from an ID storage.
4. The system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a feedback control system or subsystem at the telemetry system.
5. The system of claim 4 , wherein the feedback control system or subsystem is at the monitoring device.
6. The system of claim 4 , wherein the feedback control system or subsystem is a standalone.
7. The system of claim 4 , wherein the monitoring device in operate communicates the feedback signal or alert to the user.
8. The system of claim 4 , further comprising:
a closed-loop system that provides control data to the monitoring device.
9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the device is a mobile device.
10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the telemetry system in operation compares a measured sensor signal from a sensor to a threshold level.
11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the motion detection device produces motion detection that is partially reflected by the person's skin and then penetrates to an internal organ where it is partially reflected from those organs and is then detected at a detector.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein a displacement of the internal organ and the person's movement are detected at the detector.
13. The system of claim 1 , wherein the motion detection device has one antenna.
14. The system of claim 1 , wherein the motion detection device has at least two antennas.
15. The system of claim 1 , wherein the motion detection device is configured to separate a movement of more than one person or animals in a room.
16. The system of claim 15 , wherein the motion detection device is configured to separate movement of more than one person or animals in the room with multiple receiving antennas or multiple motion detection emitters.
17. The system of claim 15 , wherein the motion detection device separates the movement of more than one person or animals in the room with multiple receiving antennas and or multiple motion detection emitters on a single device by first determining a phase angle between two or more receivers.
18. The system of claim 15 , wherein one or more transmitters and one or more receivers are used to determine a location of a person, animal or item.
19. The system of claim 15 , wherein the person, item, or animal is located via motion detection with a passive retroreflective tag or with an active beacon which responds to an emitted motion detection signal.
20. The system of claim 1 , wherein the motion detection device produces motion detection that is omni omni-directional.
21. The system of claim 20 , wherein the motion detection rejects signals that are not relevant by first determining a range of a target of interest and then ignoring signals that are further than specified bounds from the target of interest.
22. The system of claim 1 , wherein at least one of sensor data, audio data and motion detection data is used to reject false position signals relative to the person's sleep and/or sleep related parameters.
