Summary:A computer-implemented method of identifying a subject's body part on which a hand-held device is used to perform a personal care operation. The hand-held device comprises a head portion for contacting the subject's skin one or more sensors for measuring a parameter and generating measurement signals as the hand-held device is used on the subject's skin. The sensor(s) comprise(s) at least one of a skin contact sensor, skin tone sensor, and/or proximity sensor. The method includes obtaining a measurement signal from each sensor; analyzing the obtained measurement signal using a trained machine learning model (MLM) to identify the subject's body part that the hand-held device is used on. The trained MLM analyzes a plurality of measurements in a time window on each of the obtained measurement signals to identify the body part. An indication of the identified body part is then outputted.
