Abstract
A method includes providing ear-based contextual environment and biometric pattern recognition using an earpiece including an earpiece housing, an intelligent control disposed within the earpiece housing, a speaker operatively connected to the intelligent control, a microphone operatively connected to the processor. The method includes sensing at least one physiological parameter of a user of the earpiece with at least one biometric sensor operatively connected to the intelligent control, sensing at least one environmental parameter with at least one environmental sensor operatively connected to the intelligent control, performing pattern recognition analysis at the intelligent control of the earpiece using the at least one environmental parameter and the at least one physiological parameter as input to identify an alert condition, and generating an audible alert to the user using the speaker when the pattern recognition analysis indicates presence of the alert condition.
