Lifestyle companion system

Abstract

Methods and systems for providing a lifestyle companion system are provided. The lifestyle companion system can provide a platform to conduct a user interview. Based on the user interview responses, the system can suggest activities, references, and/or plug-in modules. During performance of activities, the system can provide audio and/or visual cues related to the activities and collect data indicative of the user's performance. Based on the collected data, the system can dynamically adapt the user's goals and/or activities the user is performing or will perform. In some embodiments of the present invention, the lifestyle companion system of the present invention can be applied to fitness, nutrition, and/or medical modules. The system also can be used to facilitate synchronous group activities.

         42 . An electronic device comprising:
 at least one controller configured to:
 conduct a first interview; 
 generate a first profile based on first responses to the first interview, wherein at least one of the first responses comprises information about health of a first individual; 
 accept data from a second profile, wherein the data from the second profile is based on second responses to at least a portion of the first interview, wherein at least one of the second responses comprises information about health of a second individual, and wherein the second individual is different from the first individual; 
 supplement the first profile with the data from the second profile; and 
 suggest at least a first suggested activity based on the supplemented first profile. 
   
     
     
         43 . The electronic device of  claim 42 , wherein the first suggested activity comprises a medical activity. 
     
     
         44 . The electronic device of  claim 42 , wherein the first suggested activity comprises a fitness activity. 
     
     
         45 . The electronic device of  claim 42 , wherein the at least one controller is configured to suggest the at least a first suggested activity based on data collected from at least one sensor associated with the first profile. 
     
     
         46 . The electronic device of  claim 42 , wherein the second profile comprises the profile of one of a family member of the first individual, a workout partner of the first individual, a dining partner of the first individual, an employer of the first individual, a physical therapist of the first individual, a psychologist of the first individual, a doctor of the first individual, a physical trainer of the first individual, and a coach of the first individual. 
     
     
         47 . The electronic device of  claim 42 , wherein the at least one controller is further configured to receive access authorization associated with the second profile. 
     
     
         48 . The electronic device of  claim 42 , wherein the at least one controller is further configured to:
 associate first entertainment media with the first suggested activity; and   play the first entertainment media during a performance of the first suggested activity.   
     
     
         49 . The electronic device of  claim 42 , wherein:
 the at least the first suggested activity comprises a plurality of suggested activities; and   the at least one controller is further configured to permit a user to select at least two of the plurality of suggested activities to compose a new workout compilation.   
     
     
         50 . The electronic device of  claim 42 , wherein the data from the second profile is also based on a goal of the second individual. 
     
     
         51 . The electronic device of  claim 42 , wherein the data from the second profile is also based on information about a performance of at least one specific activity by the second individual. 
     
     
         52 . An electronic device comprising:
 output circuitry; and   a controller that:
 accesses first data from a first user profile, wherein the first data from the first user profile is based on a first user's responses to a first user interview, and wherein at least a portion of the first user's responses comprises information about the health of the first user; 
 accesses second data from a second user profile, wherein the second data from the second user profile is based on a second user's responses to a second user interview, and wherein at least a portion of the second user's responses comprises information about the health of the second user; and 
 suggests at least a first suggested activity via the output circuitry based on both the accessed first data and the accessed second data. 
   
     
     
         53 . The electronic device of  claim 52 , wherein the controller supplements the first user profile with the accessed second data. 
     
     
         54 . The electronic device of  claim 52 , wherein the first suggested activity comprises a medical activity. 
     
     
         55 . The electronic device of  claim 52 , wherein the first suggested activity comprises a fitness activity. 
     
     
         56 . The electronic device of  claim 52 , wherein the second user is a family member of the first user. 
     
     
         57 . The electronic device of  claim 52 , wherein the second user is a workout partner of the first user. 
     
     
         58 . The electronic device of  claim 52 , wherein the second user is a dining partner of the first user.
