Claim 0:
1. A method of using a sensor platform bidirectionally, the sensor platform incorporated into a garment of a wearer using sensed biometric data, the method comprising:
receiving, from sensors of the sensor platform, a set of biometric data;
sending the set of biometric data to a garment application executing on a network device associated with the sensor platform, said garment application determining an area of swelling and a posture of said wearer based on said set of biometric data, and determining a physiological state of said wearer based on said area of swelling and said posture;
receiving, from the network device, a command in response to said set of biometric data, wherein said command is generated by said garment application in response to said physiological state of said wearer and said command contains generated biometric data;
applying the command via one or more actuators of the sensor platform to effect a change in an operational characteristic of at least one of the sensors of the sensor platform based on said generated biometric data contained in the command, said change in said operational characteristic comprising applying a pressure to said area of swelling;
receiving, from the sensors of the sensor platform, a set of further biometric data;
sending the set of further biometric data to the garment application, said garment application making a second determination of at least said area of swelling of said wearer based on said set of further biometric data, and to make a second determination of said physiological state of said wearer based on said area of swelling and said posture;
determining, based on said second determined physiological state of said wearer, that said command did not mitigate said physiological state of said wearer; and
sending a notification to said network device that said wearer is in a potential emergency/crisis event.
