Detailed ways

FIG. 1 is an embodiment of an exercise reminding device 100 of the present invention. The device 100 may be a portable device, which may be carried or placed on a certain part of the user's body, such as the wrist, waist, leg, foot, and the like.

The device 100 may include a sensor 101, wherein the sensor 101 may be any sensor known in the art, such as an acceleration sensor, a gyroscope, an angular velocity sensor, an altitude sensor, an infrared sensor, an image sensor, etc., for sensing a user's action signal . The sensor 101 of the present invention is preferably a 3D acceleration sensor;

A microprocessor 102 is used for receiving action signals from the sensor 101 . The microprocessor 102 further includes an action recognition unit (not shown in the figure), which is used to perform action identification processing according to the action signal transmitted by the sensor 101, so as to identify the user's action type, wherein the action identification processing operation can be established in advance by the device 100 A plurality of action models, wherein the action models can be established using Gaussian models, Bayesian network models, artificial neural network models, etc. known in the art. After the microprocessor 102 receives the motion signal sent from the sensor 101, according to the motion model in the device 100, it recognizes the user's motion type using a motion recognition algorithm, wherein the motion recognition algorithm can adopt a classification algorithm known in the art.

Further, the microprocessor 102 can also calculate the parameter value related to the amount of exercise of the user within a predetermined period of time according to the identified action type, wherein calculating the parameter value related to the amount of exercise can include, for example, calculating the user and the microprocessor 102 outputs a reminder signal through the output device 103 to remind the user to increase or decrease the appropriate amount of activity according to the calculated exercise-related parameter values.

The device 100 of the present invention may further include a memory 104 for storing an action type and MET (Metabolic Equivalent, Metabolic Equivalent) correspondence table, as shown in FIG. 2 . Among them, the metabolic equivalent refers to the ratio of the metabolic rate of the human body during exercise to the metabolic rate at rest. For example, 1 MET is defined as roughly equivalent to a person's minute-by-minute oxygen consumption while sitting quietly without any activity. The activity of 5METs means that the oxygen consumption during exercise is 5 times that of the resting state. MET is another way to express exercise intensity besides heart rate and the like.

The microprocessor 102 can look up the corresponding metabolic equivalent value according to the identified action type according to the correspondence table, so as to execute the calculation of the parameters related to the amount of exercise.

For example, when the action type identified by the microprocessor 102 is walking gently, its corresponding metabolic equivalent is 2.5, as shown in the correspondence table shown in FIG. 2 .

Those skilled in the art can understand that the microprocessor 102 can also calculate the speed of each movement according to the movement signal from the sensor 101 . For example, each step in the "walking" action is a motion cycle. According to the action signal waveform, first use the frequency domain method to estimate a period value, and then use the time domain method to search for the period around this value, and the reciprocal of the period is the user's movement speed.

The microprocessor 102 can accurately search for the corresponding METs value according to the calculated movement speed. For example, walking can be a slow walk or a fast walk, and the corresponding METs values are different.

The microprocessor 102 can determine whether the user's exercise amount is too much or too little within the predetermined time according to the preset exercise amount-related parameter thresholds in the device 100, so as to remind the user to reduce or increase the amount of exercise. For example, the device 100 can set the predetermined time to calculate the user's exercise related parameter value once in half a day and/or a day, and set the microprocessor 102 to recognize the user's action type once every minute. The microprocessor 102 may include a counter for recording the number of action types corresponding to different METs values during user activities. For example, assuming that the action types with METs above 3.5 exercise intensity belong to the effective action types in the user's life activities, and the action types with METs below 3.5 exercise intensity belong to the invalid action types in the user's life activities, then the counter can be used to identify invalid action types The number and the number of effective action types are counted, and the device 100 can preset the motion-related parameter thresholds as follows:

With half a day as the scheduled time,

When the number of action types with METS>=3.5 recorded by the counter is less than 5, and

When the number of recorded action types with METS<3.5 is greater than 700,

It shows that the effective exercise amount of the user in half a day is less, and at this moment, the microprocessor 102 sends a reminder signal to remind the user to exercise with an appropriate amount of exercise.

Wherein, the effective action types and invalid action types can be set according to different groups of people. For example, the general population can set the action types with METs above 3.5 as effective action types, while athletes can set the action types with METs above 6 as effective action types. Further, if the user is implementing a weight loss plan, a higher METs value can be set as an effective action type.

If the processor calculates that the user has too much effective exercise within a predetermined time period, such as half a day or a day, for example, half a day is still used as the predetermined time period,

When the number of action types with METS>=3.5 recorded by the counter is greater than 100, and

When the number of recorded action types with METS<3.5 is less than 20,

The microprocessor 102 can also send out a reminder signal to remind the user to reduce the exercise with an appropriate amount of exercise.

The microprocessor 102 can also calculate the amount of physical activity according to different types of actions, and the calculation formula of the amount of physical activity is as follows:

METs × exercise duration

Taking half a day as the predetermined time as an example, the device 100 can set the minimum and maximum values of the total amount of healthy physical activity for the user within half a day. amount, when less than the minimum value, a reminder signal is sent to remind the user to carry out an appropriate amount of exercise; vice versa, when the microprocessor 102 calculates that the user's physical activity for half a day is 5.0*12 hours=60 activity, when it exceeds the maximum value , to send a reminder signal to remind the user to reduce a certain amount of exercise.

Among them, the signal reminding the user to increase the appropriate amount of exercise and the signal reminding the user to reduce the appropriate amount of exercise can be distinguished. For example, it is possible to set the length of the beeping time for distinction, or to set different ring tones for distinction, etc.

Further, the output device 103 may include a display device, and the device 100 may further include an input device 105 through which the user may input his body weight information. Moreover, the operation of inputting the weight information can display a selection list through the display device, and the user can select and input the weight information according to the selection list.

The microprocessor 102 can also calculate the calorie value consumed by the user within a predetermined period of time (for example, half a day) according to the metabolic equivalent corresponding to the identified action type and the body weight input by the user. The calculation formula can be as follows:

Calorie consumption = physical activity x body weight.

Those skilled in the art can understand that calorie consumption can also be calculated according to the user's personal information, including height, weight, age, gender, health status, race, etc., and the calculation method can be calculated according to the reference formula in exercise physiology. A repeat.

Similarly, the device 100 can set the upper limit and lower limit of calorie consumption within a predetermined time, for example, set the upper limit of the amount of calories that should be consumed in one day to 7200Kcal, and the lower limit can be equal to or less than the upper limit Upper limit value, such as 2880Kcal. If the amount of calories consumed by the user in the predetermined period calculated by the microprocessor 102 exceeds the upper limit, such as 7800Kcal, it means that the user consumes too many calories, and a reminder signal is sent to remind the user to add energy and/or reduce a certain amount of exercise If the calorie consumption calculated by the user is lower than the target calorie consumption lower limit within the predetermined period, it means that the calorie consumption of the user is insufficient, and a reminder signal is sent to remind the user to exercise with an appropriate amount of exercise.

The above-mentioned reminder signal can be a buzzer signal, a vibration signal or a voice prompt signal. Preferably, different signals can be set to distinguish between reminders to reduce the amount of exercise and reminders to increase the amount of exercise.

Preferably, the user can also use the input device 105 to input more personal information, such as height, gender, age, health status, race, etc., as shown in the form shown in FIG. 3 . The microprocessor 102 can also set different upper limit values and lower limit values according to the personal information. Generally, the upper and lower limits of exercise related parameters can be determined according to BMI (Body MassIndex), for example,

31 years old < (male user) < 35 years old or 30 years old < (female user) < 34 years old, you can set the upper limit of physical activity per day to 2.5 (METs) × 24 (hours) of activity, and the lower limit to 2 (METs) × 24 (hours) activity level;

36 years old < (male user) or 35 years old < (female user), you can set the upper limit of daily physical activity as 2 (METs) × 24 (hours) of activity, and the lower limit as 1.5 (METs) × 24 ( hours) activity level, etc.

By analogy, the upper and lower limits of parameters related to the amount of exercise of users of various age groups can be set.

If you are over 65 years old or have other diseases, you must customize it, and it is generally judged that the user can breathe normally while walking.

Preferably, the memory in the device 100 can also store an exercise plan option list, as shown in FIG. 4 , the display device can also display the exercise plan list, and the user can also use the input device to select and input an exercise plan. For example, a weight loss plan, as shown in Figure 3. The microprocessor 102 can set different upper and lower limits according to the personal information and exercise plan input by the user. Since the amount of exercise required to lose weight is greater than that required for general health activities, different upper and lower limits need to be reset. For example, the lower limit of the total amount of exercise that a female user under the age of 24 with a body weight of 60 kg should achieve in one day can be set as 2.5 (METs) × 24 (hours), and the upper limit can be set as 3 (METs) × 24 (hours ); or the upper limit of calories consumed in a day is 3600Kcal, and the lower limit is 4320Kcal; or set the lower limit of the number of effective actions for METS>=3.5 to 10, and the upper limit of the number of effective actions for METS>=3.5 It is 600 and so on.

Preferably, the display device in the output device 103 in the device 100 can also be used to display a reminder message after the reminder signal is sent, and the reminder message can include the type of exercise suitable for the user's current exercise amount, the corresponding exercise time and/or The amount of exercise. For example, if the total amount of physical activity of the user in half a day is 12, which is lower than the preset lower limit of 24, the user is reminded to ride a bicycle for 15 minutes, do yoga training for 20 minutes, swim for 15 minutes, lift a barbell 100 times, play table tennis, etc. The ball waited for 10 minutes, as shown in Figure 5.

It can be understood that the above numerical values are only used to facilitate the description of the technical solution of the present invention, and do not represent professional health data.

Preferably, users can input their exercise preferences. The reminder information can also display the suitable exercise types for the user according to the order of priority according to the exercise preferences input by the user. For example, if the user needs 20 minutes of running or 10 minutes of swimming, and the user's exercise preferences are in order: Swimming -> Badminton -> Running, the 10-minute swimming information will be displayed first, and the 20-minute running information will be displayed later. Among them, the exercise preferences can be set by the device for the user to select and input exercise options.

Preferably, the device 100 also includes a clock (not shown in the figure) for recording time; the memory 104 in the device 100 can further store a time and corresponding optimal exercise type correspondence table, as shown in FIG. 6 ; The microprocessor 102 can also look up the corresponding relationship table according to the current time, and display suitable exercise information in sequence. For example, if the user currently needs to perform 5 minutes of yoga or 10 minutes of swimming, and the clock is 22 o'clock in the evening, then the microprocessor 102 can perform priority display according to suitable sports at night, such as displaying 5 minutes of yoga first, and A 10-minute swim is shown later.

Preferably, the microprocessor 102 can also store the user's exercise history in the memory 104, and analyze the type of exercise the user often does according to the user's exercise history, so as to analyze the user's exercise habits.

Preferably, the microprocessor 102 can also remind the user to perform appropriate exercise intensity, frequency, duration and exercise type according to the health status and other personal information input by the user. For example, for hypertensive patients, suitable exercise types are mainly yoga, Tai Chi, jogging, and walking, with an exercise intensity of 3.5 < METs < 5.0, and an exercise frequency of 2 times a day.
