Abstract: In an example method, a mobile device obtains a database including a plurality of data records. Each data record includes an indication of a respective impact previously experienced by a user of the mobile device, and sensor data generated by one or more first sensors worn by the user during that impact. The mobile device obtains sensor data generated by one or more second sensors worn by the user over a period of time, and determines whether the user has fallen during the period of time based on the database and the additional sensor data. The mobile device generates one or more notifications based on the determination of whether the user has fallen during the period of time.

Abstract: In an example method, a mobile device connects a voice call for a user. The voice call causes one or more radio frequency transmitters of the mobile device to transmit radio waves at a first power level. Motion data describing movement of the mobile device is obtained, and the orientation of the mobile device is determined based on the motion data. A determination whether the mobile device is on the user's body or on an inanimate object is made based on the orientation of the mobile device over the period of time. The transmit power level is adjusted based on the determination.

Abstract: In one aspect, the present disclosure relates to a method including obtaining, by a fitness tracking device, a plurality of heart rate measurements of the user over a period of time, wherein the plurality of heart rate measurements can include heart rate data from a heart rate sensor of the fitness tracking device; analyzing, by the fitness tracking device, the plurality of heart rate measurements to determine a rate of change of a heart rate of the user during the period of time; determining, by the fitness tracking device, that the user is experiencing an onset phase if the rate of change of the heart rate during the period of time is greater than zero; determining, by the fitness tracking device, that the user is experiencing a cool-down phase if the rate of change of the heart rate during the period of time is less than zero; estimating, by the fitness tracking device, a first rate of energy expenditure of the user if the user is experiencing an onset phase using an onset calorimetry model; and estimating, by the fitness tracking device, a second rate of energy expenditure of the user if the user is experiencing a cool-down phase using a cool-down calorimetry model.

Abstract: An electronic device may have components that experience performance variations as the device changes orientation relative to a user. Changes in the orientation of the device relative to the user can be monitored using a motion sensor. A camera may be used to periodically capture images of a user's eyes. By processing the images to produce accurate orientation information reflecting the position of the user's eyes relative to the device, the orientation of the device tracked by the motion sensor can be periodically updated. The components may include audio components such as microphones and speakers and may include a display with an array of pixels for displaying images. Control circuitry in the electronic device may modify pixel values for the pixels in the array to compensate for angle-of-view-dependent pixel appearance variations based on based on the orientation information from the motion sensor and the camera.

Abstract: An electronic device that provides situationally-aware alerts determines to provide an alert output (such as haptic, audio, visual, and so on) via an output device, determines a movement pattern based on one or more signals from one or more sensors indicating information relating at least to movement of the electronic device, and adjusts the alert output to account for the movement pattern. In some implementations, the electronic device may adjust the alert output by delaying the alert output. In other implementations, the electronic device may adjust the alert output by altering the alert output to be discernible despite the movement pattern based on a cadence of the movement pattern. In still other implementations, the electronic device may determine to provide the alert output in response to receiving an incoming communication and may adjust the alert output differently based on a priority associated with the incoming communication.

Abstract: An electronic device may include a motion sensor for detecting movement of the electronic device and a pressure sensor for detecting changes in elevation of the electronic device. Applications that run on the electronic device such as health and fitness applications may use motion sensor and pressure sensor data to track a user's physical activity. For example, processing circuitry in the electronic device may use the motion sensor to track a user's steps and the pressure sensor to track changes in the user's elevation. The processing circuitry may determine whether the user is climbing stairs based on the user's step rate and the user's changes in elevation. When the processing circuitry determines that the user is climbing stairs, the processing circuitry may use the pressure sensor and motion sensor to track and store the number of flights of stairs climbed by the user.

Abstract: A calibration track to use for pedometer calibration can be automatically selected based on detecting sustained locomotion activity and an ability to obtain and maintain a reliable location fix over a calibration period. Calibration tracks can be generated, rated for quality, and used to compute calibration parameters to convert accelerometer data to stride length and/or distance traveled. Quality of a calibration can be assessed, and old and new calibration parameter sets can be combined based on quality weights assigned to each. Calibration parameters can be separately maintained for different locomotion activities and/or different on-body locations of the pedometers. Pedometer devices can also cooperatively calibrate each other.

Abstract: In some implementations, a mobile device can be configured with virtual motion fences that delineate domains of motion detectable by the mobile device. In some implementations, the mobile device can be configured to invoke an application or function when the mobile device enters or exits a motion domain (by crossing a motion fence). In some implementations, entering or exiting a motion domain can cause components of the mobile device to power on or off (or awaken or sleep) in an incremental manner.
