Apparatus and system for verifying accomplishment of an activity which utilitizes penalties or accountability fees to encourage performance of an activity

摘要

A system for monitoring the accomplishment of an activity of a user. The system includes an activity monitoring system for monitoring the accomplishment of an assigned physical activity of the user. The activity monitoring system includes data storage and an activities compiler for storing information associated with the assigned physical activity for the user of the system. The system also includes an interactive communication and verification (ICV) apparatus which accumulates information related to the accomplishment of the assigned activity. The ICV apparatus sends the accumulated information to the activity monitoring system. The activity monitoring system stores a predefined activity parameter and penalty/accountability fee assessment. The activities compiler compiles the accumulated information received from the user and determines if the assigned physical activity is performed based on the predefined activity parameter. If the physical activity is not correctly performed, the compiler assesses the penalty/accountability fee assessment.
