Could this be the difference? Unless of course these items are mentioned in the other child patents, but I did not see this in the parent.
patent # 13/681,054
Seems like they added specific mentions of sensors that provide the types of data stated in Claim 29
The system of claim 29, wherein the at least one environmental metric is selected from the group consisting of acceleration, angle, audio, biometrics, breathing signatures, capacitance, density, displacement, distance, electric current, electric potential, energy, force, gravity, gyroscope, heat, heart rate, humidity, imaging, level, linear acceleration, light, moisture, navigation, orientation, photons, position, presence, radiation, radio, speed, rotation vector, speech patterns, subatomic particles, temperature, user input, ultrasound, ultraviolet, usage, vibration, and video.
Here are the claims that mention the individual sensors.
2. The system of claim 1, wherein: the at least one sensor comprises at least one location sensor which detects at least one location of the communication device, and the at least one processor includes, in the created social signature, data based on the at least one detected location.
3. The system of claim 1, wherein: the at least one sensor comprises at least one location sensor which detects at least one location of the communication device, and the at least one processor compares the at least one location with map data to determine at least one map location of the communication device, and includes, in the created social signature, data based on the at least one determined map location.
4. The system of claim 1, wherein: the at least one sensor comprises at least one motion sensor which detects at least one motion of the communication device within the environment, and the at least one processor includes, in the created social signature, data based on the at least one detected motion.
5. The system of claim 1, wherein: the at least one sensor comprises at least one physiological sensor which detects at least one physical metric of a user of the communication device, and the at least one processor includes, in the created social signature, data based on the at least one detected physical metric.
6. The system of claim 1, wherein: the at least one sensor comprises at least one radio sensor which detects ranging data regarding at least one dimensional characteristic of the environment, and the at least one processor includes, in the created social signature, data based on the at least one dimensional characteristic of the detected ranging data.
7. The system of claim 1, wherein: the at least one sensor comprises at least one chemical sensor which detects at least one chemical concentration within the environment, and the at least one processor includes, in the created social signature, data based on the at least one detected chemical concentration.
8. The system of claim 1, wherein: the at least one sensor comprises at least one infrared sensor which detects at least one infrared light metric within the environment, and the at least one processor includes, in the created social signature, data based on the at least one detected infrared light metric.
9. The system of claim 1, wherein: the at least one sensor comprises at least one thermal sensor which detects at least one thermal metric within the environment, and the at least one processor includes, in the created social signature, data based on the at least one detected thermal metric.
10. The system of claim 1, wherein: the at least one sensor comprises at least one pressure sensor which detects at least one pressure metric within the environment, and the at least one processor includes, in the created social signature, data based on the at least one detected pressure metric.
11. The system of claim 1, wherein: the at least one sensor comprises at least one magnetic field sensor which detects at least one magnetic field metric within the environment, and the at least one processor includes, in the created social signature, data based on the at least one detected magnetic field metric.
12. The system of claim 1, wherein: the at least one sensor comprises at least one proximity sensor which detects at least one proximity of at least one object to the communication device within the environment, and the at least one processor includes, in the created social signature, data based on the at least one detected proximity of the at least one object.
13. The system of claim 1, wherein: the at least one sensor comprises at least one environmental sensor which detects at least one environmental metric within the environment, and the at least one processor includes, in the created social signature, data based on the at least one detected environmental metric.
14. The system of claim 13, wherein the at least one environmental metric is selected from the group consisting of acceleration, angle, audio, biometrics, breathing signatures, capacitance, density, displacement, distance, electric current, electric potential, energy, force, gravity, gyroscope, heat, heart rate, humidity, imaging, level, linear acceleration, light, moisture, navigation, orientation, photons, position, presence, radiation, radio, speed, rotation vector, speech patterns, subatomic particles, temperature, user input, ultrasound, ultraviolet, usage, vibration, and video.
