Abstract
A method for monitoring human activity using an inertial sensor includes obtaining acceleration measurement data from an inertial sensor disposed in eyewear. The acceleration measurement data is processed to determine a user activity statistic. The user activity statistic includes at least one of a current user activity, periodic human motion count, total distance traveled, vertical distance traveled, current speed and average speed.
