Abstract: A relationship relating a load of exercise and a user's aerobic capacity may be determined as follows. A processor circuit of a device may retrieve, from a memory, a prior probability distribution of the load of exercise and a prior probability distribution of the user's aerobic capacity. The processor circuit may compute a joint prior probability of the load of exercise and the user's aerobic capacity. The processor circuit may compute a joint likelihood of the load of exercise and the user's aerobic capacity based on data indicative of a measured time-stamped work rate and a measured time-stamped heart rate. The processor circuit may combine the joint prior probability and the joint likelihood to produce a joint posterior probability. The processor circuit may use the joint posterior probability to determine a relationship relating the load of exercise and the user's aerobic capacity and output a calorie calculation.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system and method of detecting activity by a wheelchair user. In one aspect, a method comprises collecting motion data of a user device located on an appendage of the user; detecting, by a processor circuit, that one or more activities by the wheelchair user occurred based on the motion data; calculating, by a processor circuit, an energy expenditure by the user based the one or more activities by the wheelchair user occurred; and outputting, by a processor circuit, the energy expenditure estimation.

Abstract: Ear buds may have optical proximity sensors and accelerometers. Control circuitry may analyze output from the optical proximity sensors and the accelerometers to identify a current operational state for the ear buds. The control circuitry may also analyze the accelerometer output to identify tap input such as double taps made by a user on ear bud housings. Samples in the accelerometer output may be analyzed to determine whether the samples associated with a tap have been clipped. If the samples have been clipped, a curve may be fit to the samples. Optical sensor data may be analyzed in conjunction with potential tap input data from the accelerometer. If the optical sensor data is ordered, a tap input may be confirmed. If the optical sensor data is disordered, the control circuitry can conclude that accelerometer data corresponds to false tap input associated with unintentional contact with the housing.

Abstract: A system and method for improving the accuracy of a user device when generating map/navigation information for display to a user, comprising: obtaining compass heading from a magnetometer of the user device located within a vehicle; adjusting the compass heading based on a mount angle of the user device within the vehicle; obtaining location data from a location sensor of the user device; determining if a course of the vehicle can be reliably determined from the location data; if the course of the vehicle cannot be reliably determined from the location data, determining the orientation of the vehicle using the compass heading but not the course; if the course of the vehicle can be reliably determined from the location data, calculating a course of the vehicle based on the location data and determining the orientation of the vehicle using the course; generating, by a processor, first map/navigation information using the orientation of the vehicle; and displaying, by a processor, the first map/navigation information to the user.

Abstract: A method and a system for determining an individual energy expenditure are described. In some embodiments, an energy expenditure can be calculated based on a combination of biometrics, heart rate and work rate. In some embodiments, a relative drag associated with the user can be calculated based on a group formation size, a group formation shape, participant velocities, weather, air density, and participant body surface areas. In some embodiments, a load adjustment factor can be determined based on the relative drag. In some embodiments, an adjusted energy expenditure can be determined based on the load adjustment factor.

Abstract: A mobile device may determine a set of range values between the first mobile device and the second mobile device based on a difference between the first time and the second time for ranging wireless signals. The mobile device can determine first odometry information using a first sensor on the first mobile device, the first odometry information indicating a first motion of the first mobile device during a time period. The mobile device can receive, via a data channel, second odometry information determined from second measurements captured using a second sensor on the second mobile device. The mobile device can solve an angle between a first reference frame for the first device and a second reference frame for the second device using the set of range values, and the first and second odometry information to display a directional arrow pointing to a current position of the second mobile device.

Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for head dimension estimation for spatial audio applications. In an embodiment, a method comprises: obtaining, using one or more processors of an audio headset worn on a user's head, acceleration samples and rotation rate samples over a specified time window while the user rotates their head, the acceleration samples and rotation rate samples measured using motion sensors in the headset; determining a function that relates the acceleration samples to the rotation rate samples; comparing the function to a plurality of reference functions, where each reference function corresponds to a different head dimension in a nominal range of head dimensions; and estimating a dimension of the user's head based on the comparing.
