| abstract |
This application is directed to a fitness monitoring device with an altimeter. This disclosure discusses biometric monitoring devices, including various techniques that may be implemented in such devices. Additionally, techniques are provided for utilizing altimeters in biometric monitoring devices. In some implementations, such techniques may involve: recalibrating the biometric monitoring device based on location data; using altimeter data as an aid to gesture recognition; and/or using altimeter data to manage the aircraft mode of the biometric monitoring device. |
