Abstract
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide measures, including apparatuses, circuitry, methods and computer programs, for use in monitoring user activity. Orientation data for a user is generated. The generated orientation data is inserted into advertising packets of a wireless communication protocol. The advertising packets comprising the generated orientation data are broadcast according to the wireless communication protocol.
Claims28
An apparatus for use in monitoring user activity, the apparatus being configured to:
- generate orientation data for a user at a first repetition frequency;
- insert the orientation data into advertising packets of a wireless communication protocol at the first repetition frequency;
- and
- broadcast the advertising packets comprising the orientation data according to the wireless communication protocol at the first repetition frequency,
- receive a connection request from a device in response to a broadcast of the advertising packets, wherein the connection request is received in response to the orientation data in the advertising packets indicating a presence of a predetermined activity pattern of the user;
- and
- establish a connection with the device according to the wireless communication protocol,
- wherein the device is configured to forward the orientation data to a server configured to process the orientation data in the advertising packets and determine the presence of a predetermined activity pattern of the user.

4 more elements
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising a set of instructions, which, when executed by a processor of an apparatus, cause the apparatus to perform a method of monitoring user activity, the method comprising:
- generating orientation data for a user at a first repetition frequency;
- inserting the orientation data into advertising packets of a wireless communication protocol at the first repetition frequency;
- and
- broadcasting the advertising packets comprising the orientation data according to the wireless communication protocol at the first repetition frequency;
- receive a connection request from a device in response to a broadcast of the advertising packets, wherein the connection request is received in response to the orientation data in the advertising packets indicating a presence of a predetermined activity pattern of the user;
- and
- establish a connection with the device according to the wireless communication protocol,
- wherein the device is configured to forward the orientation data to a server configured to process the orientation data in the advertising packets and determine the presence of a predetermined activity pattern of the user.
