Claim Text:
1. A wearable motion sensing device, comprising: a necklace, a motion sensor attached to the necklace; and a pendant attached to the necklace, wherein the motion sensor is attached to the necklace at a diametrically opposed location of the necklace as to where the pendant is attached to the necklace, wherein a mass of the pendant urges the motion sensor towards a back of a neck of the human being when the necklace is worn by the human being; wherein the necklace further comprises insulated electrical conductors that electrically connect the motion sensor to the pendant, allowing a power supply of the pendant to provide electrical power to the motion sensor; and wherein the pendant is detachable from the necklace and the pendant includes a processor circuit configured to detect whether the pendant is attached to the necklace and; if the pendant is detected to be attached to the necklace, then the processor circuit is further configured to identify motion of the motion sensor, and if the pendant is detected to be detached from the necklace, then the processor circuit is further configured to identify motion of the pendant.
