Gait counting method and gait counter

Abstract

The invention discloses a gait counting method and a gait counter. The gait counter can be worn on a wrist or other parts of a body and is used for precisely counting different kinds of gaits of a wearer. The gait counting method comprises the following steps: analyzing an output signal of an acceleration sensor so as to generate two groups of dynamic threshold parameters and a group of dynamic time parameters; when an acceleration output signal change value is greater than a first threshold parameter and spans downwards across a second threshold parameter, performing gait counting analog; comparing the time and corresponding dynamic time parameters in two times of gait counting analog so as to confirm whether next detection is performed or not; performing wrist belt type gait counting characteristic comparison and judging; subsequently judging whether the gait counting analog meets specific counting rule parameters; judging whether the gait counting analog meets corresponding gait rule parameters so as to confirm whether the corresponding gaits need to be counted. By adopting the gait counting method and the gait counter, the wearer can wear the gait counter on the wrist or the other parts of the body to precisely count the different kinds of gaits.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of consumer application electronics, in particular to a gait step counting method capable of counting the number of steps of a user and a design of a pedometer. Background technique [0002] The pedometer detects the acceleration in the vertical direction of the pedestrian through the acceleration sensor, and counts the number of steps or body movements based on the change of the detected value, and displays the counted number of steps numerically. In recent years, pedometers can not only measure the number of steps, but also detect different gaits, such as walking status and running status. [0003] However, in the actual exercise process, walking and jogging are the aerobic exercise methods chosen by many people. However, the leisurely walking process is often slow walking or even pacing, that is, there is a moving state like two feet touching the ground at the same time. The way of movement will be obvio...
