See full text

A mobile device may use near field communication (NFC) technology to configuration a generic pool of wearable, wireless sensors that may occupy different physical locations on an end user s body. The wearable sensors have an embedded NFC tag in them such, that a mobile device, such as a mobile phone, with an NFC capability may be used to configure sensors in the field so that it recognizes which sensor is connected to which body part. Such a system may be used for example to monitor and report on the user's daily physical activity patterns or be used for video gaming applications where the user's physical movements are detected and utilized to control the game.
