Abstract
Devices and methods for determining the position of a device relative to a person using the device, or the position of a part of a user's body relative to the user. One or more thermal sensor may be used to determine the relative position of the device or part of the user's body.
Claims20
A system for determining a position of an arm of a user relative to another portion of the user's body, comprising:
- a device configured to be attachable to said arm, said device having at least one sensor, wherein the at least one sensor comprises a thermal sensor, and wherein the thermal sensor comprises three thermopiles;
- a memory having a machine-readable medium comprising machine executable code;
- and
- one or more processors coupled to the memory, said one or more processors configured to execute the machine executable code, wherein the machine executable code is capable of causing the one or more processors to:
- receive data comprising data output from the at least one sensor;
- process the received data using a machine learning algorithm to generate an output indicating a probability that the user has engaged in a behavior;
- and
- generate an output if the probability exceeds a predetermined quantity.
