Claim 0:
1. A method of using a sensor platform of a garment of a wearer in order to interact with a remote networked device using sensed biometric data, the method comprising:
executing a garment application via a first processor of said garment;
receiving, at said garment application, from one or more sensors of said garment, said sensors positioned around a waist of said wearer, a set of biometric data, wherein said sensors include a strain gauge sensor and a gyroscope;
processing, by said first processor, data received from said strain gauge sensor and said gyroscope to determine real-time breathing of said wearer and a posture of said wearer, wherein said processing includes differentiating a degree of strain contributing to said posture, and discounting an effect of said biometric data from said gyroscope on said posture determination based on a body composition of said wearer;
comparing, by the first processor, the set of biometric data to a data model including a plurality of model data parameters;
determining, by said first processor, whether to effect a change in an operational characteristic of the networked device based on the comparing and said real-time breathing and posture of said wearer and in accordance with a set of instructions for determining an action when the biometric data matches or does not match data patterns in the data model;
in response to determining to effect said change in said operational characteristic of said networked device, sending a command to the networked device to effect said change in said operational characteristic of said networked device;
receiving, at said garment application, a further set of biometric data from said one or more sensors;
further comparing, by said first processor, the further set of biometric data to the data model; and
determining whether to effect a further change in an operational characteristic of the networked device based on the further comparing.
