The dramatically expanding capabilities of the modern smart phone are enabling the creation of entirely new classes of applications for health, wellness, and entertainment.  Data collected from on-board sensors, web services, social media and external biosensors can be integrated to determine the context of the device, user, and environment. These combined contexts allow the device to achieve a new level of awareness of the user and surroundings, thereby enabling the creation of rich, biologically driven applications.

Collected and derived context is stored in a context provider - an extension of the Android content provider - offering a unified, query-able interface to all contextual data on the device.  This allows for rapid development of new context and bio-aware applications and helps simplify the deployment model.
