Patent attributes
In a portable activity-monitoring device, an instruction to display information regarding activity of an individual bearing the portable activity-monitoring device is received via a user-interface. In response to the instruction to display information, a command is wirelessly transmitted to a discrete data-collection device requesting the discrete data-collection device to collect data via one or more sensors thereof and to convey the collected data to the portable activity-monitoring device. Thereafter, the portable activity-monitoring device wirelessly receives the collected data from the discrete data-collection device and displays the information regarding activity of the individual bearing the portable activity-monitoring device, the displayed information being based, at least in part, on the collected data.
