Embodiment Construction

[0019] In the following description, for purposes of explanation rather than limitation, specific details are set forth, such as particular architectures, interfaces, techniques, etc., in order to provide a general understanding of the present invention. It will be apparent, however, to one skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced in other embodiments that depart from these specific details. As used herein, the term "pulse" refers to heart rate, the "tempo" of an audio signal is eg in BPM, and "pace" refers to an exercise tempo.

[0020] This application is filed with co-pending U.S. Patent Application Serial No. XX / XXXXXX, filed___2004, by F.H.G.Ogg and D.P.L. Simons, for "Audio Pacing Device," which is hereby incorporated by reference.

[0021] Referring to the drawings, and in particular to FIG. 1 , there is shown an audio interval training device, generally indicated by the reference numeral 100 , in accordance with the present invention.

[0022] As...

Abstract

There is provided an audio interval training device, including a sensing unit to obtain a parameter of a user in physical exercise, a memory to store a plurality of audio signals having predetermined tempos; and a processing unit configured to (1) receive a first and second target parameter value, (2) select from the plurality of audio signals a first and second audio signal having respective tempos, (3) alternatively rendering the first and second audio signals, wherein a respective audio signal is rendered to the user corresponding to the first and second target parameter value, as determined by the processing unit using the parameter from the sensing unit.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for interval training using audio (music) signals, user parameters such as pulse rate (heartbeat), and a music listening device. More particularly, the present invention relates to apparatus and methods capable of selecting an audio signal corresponding to a suitable tempo, such as beats per minute (BPM), to achieve two interval exercise levels. Background technique [0002] Many physical exercise programs performed by an individual, and running or jogging in particular, are significantly more effective within a certain range of heart rate. The required heart rate varies among individuals with different age and health factors. Also, individual heart rates that drop to a certain low level cause physical exercise to have only mild effects on them. Furthermore, an individual's heart rate above the upper limit level can cause exercise to have a deleterious effect on them. Thus, people who start a ...
