Abstract
There are provided systems and methods for real-time age profiling. One system includes at least one sensor, a memory storing an algorithm, and a processor configured to execute the algorithm to receive data corresponding to a user interaction with the at least one sensor and calculate an age of a user using the data corresponding to the user interaction. The data corresponding to the user interaction may include pressure data from a pressure sensor, orientation data from an orientation sensor, motion data from a motion sensor, or interaction data from an interaction sensor.
Claims16
A device comprising:
- a motion sensor;
- an orientation sensor;
- a memory storing an algorithm;
- and
- a processor configured to execute the algorithm to:
- receive motion data from the motion sensor, the motion data describing movements of the device while the device is being used by a user interacting with the device;
- receive orientation data from the orientation sensor, wherein the orientation data include an orientation of the device while the device is being used by the user interacting with the device;
- weight the orientation data, using a first weight, based on recorded data;
- weight the motion data, using a second weight, based on the recorded data, the second weight being different than the first weight;
- and
- analyze the weighted orientation data and the weighted motion data describing the movements of the device to determine a calculated age range of the user;
- wherein the recorded data includes a first correlation between how users orient the device based on an age range, and a second correlation between how users move the device based on the age range.
A method for use by a device that includes a plurality of sensors comprising at least a motion sensor and an orientation sensor, the method comprising:
- receiving motion data from the motion sensor, the motion data describing movements of the device while the device is being used by a user interacting with the device;
- receiving orientation data from the orientation sensor, wherein the orientation data include an orientation of the device while the device is being used by the user interacting with the device;
- weighting the orientation data, using a first weight, based on recorded data;
- weighting the motion data, using a second weight, based on the recorded data, the second weight being different than the first weight;
- and
- analyzing the weighted orientation data and the weighted motion data describing the movements of the device to determine a calculated age range of the user;
- wherein the recorded data includes a first correlation between how users orient the device based on an age range, and a second correlation between how users move the device based on the age range.
