Proximity based and data exchange and user authentication between smart wearable devices

A wearable device, the device comprising:

• (a) a housing, wherein the housing encases components of a wearable device;
• (b) one or more sensors, wherein at least one sensor is configured for sensing biological or physiological input;
• (c) one or more communications interfaces;
• (d) a processor;
• and
• (e) programming stored in a non-transitory medium, wherein the programming is readable and executable by the processor, and wherein the programming performs steps comprising:
• (i) sensing one or more devices in proximity to the wearable device;
• (ii) communicating with the one or more devices;
• and
• (iii) acquiring one or more permissions relating to data associated with the wearable device or the one or more devices.

A computer implemented method for a smart wearable device user authentication and non-wearable device range notification, the method comprising:

• (a) providing a smart wearable device, the device comprising:
• (i) a housing, wherein the housing encases components of a wearable smart device;
• (ii) one or more sensors, wherein at least one sensor is a biological sensor configured to acquire biological input;
• (iii) one or more output devices;
• (iv) a memory;
• (v) one or more communications interfaces;
• and
• (vi) a processor;
• (b) authenticating a user's identity;
• (c) detecting a non-wearable device that is in range of the smart wearable device's one or more communications interfaces;
• (d) verifying the authenticated user has access rights to services for use with the non-wearable device;
• and
• (e) if access rights are verified, granting access to the services;
• (f) wherein said method is performed by executing programming on at least one computer processor, said programming residing on a non-transitory medium readable by the computer processor.
