Illustrative embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with respect to the figures.
The following refers to
A step S110 of receiving original data collected by at least one data collecting terminal. The original data collected by the at least one data collecting terminal may be received via a Bluetooth interface or other wireless interface. The original data collected by the at least one data collecting terminal includes, but is not limited to, pace counting data collected by an intelligent watch, heart rate data collected by an intelligent chest strap, blood pressure data collected by an intelligent blood pressure monitor, water intake amount data collected by an intelligent cup, body temperature data collected by an intelligent thermometer and/or weight data collected by an intelligent body weight scale. The original data is stored for synchronization with a cloud service of all the received original data.
A step S120 of generating an exercise solution based on the original data, which may include the steps of calculating a comprehensive exercise capability and qualified exercise objective based on the synchronized original data, and generating an exercise solution according to the comprehensive exercise capability and qualified exercise objective. Then the exercise solution may be stored.
A step S130 of transmitting the exercise solution to exercise equipment corresponding to the exercise solution. The exercise solution may be customized to the specific exercise equipment and transmitted to the corresponding exercise equipment via a wireless interface for automatic execution upon starting the exercise equipment.
After transmitting the exercise solution to the applicable exercise equipment, the method may further include returning to step S110 of receiving the original data collected by the at least one data collecting terminal, then analyzing the exercise habit and capability of the user, and then adjusting the exercise solution based on the original data, all done in real time.
The technical solution of the present invention is illustrated in an example showing how to apply the method provided in embodiment I in a specific application scenario and is described as follows. User A collects original data of themselves with an intelligent watch, an intelligent chest strap, an intelligent blood pressure monitor, an intelligent thermometer and an intelligent body weight scale, these being the at least one data collecting terminal, and exercises on a running machine (the exercise equipment corresponding to the exercise solution). In this example, the method includes the following steps.
User A collects pace counting data with the intelligent watch, heart rate data with the intelligent chest strap, blood pressure data with the intelligent blood pressure monitor, water intake amount data with the intelligent cup, body temperature data with the intelligent thermometer and weight data with the intelligent body weight scale, and then transmits all the above data to an exercise health management terminal. The exercise health management terminal uploads the data to a server via a Bluetooth module in order to store the data. The server stores a plurality of items, which are exercise indexes and scores corresponding to the received original data information. An index item is recommended and selected according to the score. Each of the index items represents different levels of difficulty and amount of exercise. The cloud service of the server synchronizes user data and provides inquiry service at the same time.
When user A wants to exercise, they download the synchronized original data from the server with the exercise health management terminal. The exercise health management terminal calculates the comprehensive exercise capability and qualified exercise objective for user A with said synchronized original data; and then generates an exercise solution according to said comprehensive exercise capability and qualified exercise objective, such as a running period of three days with an exercise duration of two hours etc. User A then transmits the exercise solution to the running machine via a Bluetooth module. The running machine receives the exercise solution and automatically locks the operation panel. After the user turns on the machine, it automatically runs the exercise solution and the user performs effective exercise by accomplishing the set exercise solution with the running machine.
In the exercise process, the at least one data collecting terminal monitors the health of user A, uploads the data in real time, and adjusts the exercise solution in real time to avoid potential injury to the user due to excessive or unguided exercise.
The generated exercise solution sets an exercise objective for the user, and reminds the user of the exercise push to share function. The at least one data collecting terminal monitors exercise at all times. The user can share the exercise outcomes via social software such as Wechat, QQ, Facebook and Twitter from the intelligent exercise health management terminal.
The exercise health management method provided can accomplish the function of a virtual personal coach and may synchronize user data to a cloud service so that the user may receive professional exercise guidance at home. The exercise planning and reminding mode encourages the user to continue their initiative to exercise. Also, sharing exercise outcomes makes the exercise using the present invention more rewarding and attracts more people to participate in the exercise. Exercise amount is collected in all weathers and analyzed for the purpose of continuous exercise management.
