While paired with the smart device, the VivoActive can notify the user of incoming calls, preview emails, issue calendar alerts, receive texts and social media updates, and play stored music from the host device. The user is able to track health and fitness-related activities recorded by the device and can view the data on an application (“app”) on the smart device. The data that can be tracked by the VivoActive are the user’s heart rate, number of steps, calories burned, floors climbed, activity intensity and sleep quality. You state that Garmin employs a cloud-based system called “Garmin Connect.” Garmin Connect is an online training tool to store, analyze and share users’ fitness activities. The VivoActive also contains a barometric altimeter, a 3-axis accelerometer, a light sensor and magnetometer. It also functions as a watch, and can display the time and date when other options are not in use. The VivoSmart is available in two versions, the VivoSmart HR and VivoSmart HR+. The VivoSmart is an electronic device that is worn on a person’s wrist and designed to manage data and support personal fitness. The VivoSmart HR+ features GPS capability, the VivoSmart HR does not. The VivoSmart is a multifunctional device that pairs with a smartphone or tablet. The major functions of the device, while paired with a smart device, include notification of calls, email previews, calendar alerts, receiving texts, updates on social media, streaming music stored from the host device.
