Abstract

Methods, apparatus and computer program products for alerting a user of a wearable device to adjust the position of the device are provided. An example method includes receiving environment data from a wearable device sensor connected to the wearable device, wherein the wearable device is mountable on an arm of the user such that the wearable device sensor is directed toward a hand of the user. Additionally, the example method determines a position of the wearable device on the arm of the user relative to a calibrating object based at least in part on the captured environment data. Further, the example method alerts the user to adjust the position of the wearable device in an instance in which the position of the wearable device relative to the calibrating object exceeds a predetermined threshold.
