Abstract
A system for selecting physiological data from a plurality of physiological data sources includes first and second physiological data sources and a selection algorithm. The first physiological data source is configured to provide first physiological data. The first physiological data includes a first measurement of a physiological trait. The second physiological data source is configured to provide second physiological data. The second physiological data includes a second measurement of the physiological trait. The first and second measurements are based on different physiological characteristics. The selection algorithm is configured to receive the first and second physiological data and to select one of the first and second measurements as the output data for the physiological trait based on at least one of the first physiological data and the second physiological data.
