Abstract

A personal monitoring device of the present disclosure has a sensing device that detects motion of a user and a global positioning system (GPS) that executes queries to identify a current location of the user. In addition, the device has logic that stores motion data indicative of motion of the user detected by the sensing device and adjusts a rate of location queries executed by the GPS based upon the stored motion data indicative of motion.
