Abstract
Biometric monitoring devices, including various technologies that may be implemented in such devices, are discussed herein. Additionally, techniques for utilizing gyroscopes in biometric monitoring devices are provided. Such techniques may, in some implementations, involve obtaining swimming metrics regarding swim stroke count, lap count, and stroke type. A biometric monitoring device for obtaining such metrics may include an immersions sensor.
