Abstract:

Systems and methods may identify local gesture data in a wearable device including a wrist-worn form factor and identify remote gesture data in a wireless transmission received by the wearable device. Additionally, a loyalty tracker may be incremented based on a correlation between the local gesture data and the remote gesture data. In one example, an attachment of an interchangeable component to the wearable device may be detected, wherein the loyalty tracker is incremented in response to the attachment.
