Example

[0028]The present invention is now described in more detail with the preferred embodiments. Note that the descriptions of the embodiments are presented herein for purpose of illustration and description only; they do not intend to exhaust or limit the precise form disclosed.

[0029]Please refer to FIG. 1, which is a schematic diagram showing a preferred embodiment of the first type RFID-based exercise behavior management system according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the exercise behavior management system 1 comprises one or more RFID tags 14a and 14b, a front-end subsystem including one or more reading units 11 and 12, and a back-end subsystem including at least a server 13. The front-end subsystem is connected to the back-end subsystem through a data communication channel, such as but not limited to a wireless communication channel and a wired communication channel. For example, the reading units 11 and 12, which are placed geographically apart and on the route on wh...

Abstract

An RFID-based exercise behavior management system is disclosed. The system comprises an RFID tag, a front-end subsystem and a back-end subsystem. The RFID tag contains a unique identification for a participant and is carried by or implanted in the participant whose exercise behavior can be recorded automatically when he is engaging exercise in the field where the front-end subsystem is installed. The backend subsystem enables the recorded exercise behavior to be accessed ubiquitously and to be delivered to related personnel. Thus this invention helps any health promoting agent in realizing and developing trackable exercise programs.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The invention pertains generally to an exercise behavior management system. More specifically the invention relates to a radio frequency identification (RFID) based exercise behavior management system.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Various investigations have confirmed that people can gain many physical and mental benefits from engaging in regular physical activity (PA). For instance, regular PA may help decrease the risk of many diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, colon and breast cancers and osteoporosis. It also helps to control weight, contributes to healthy bones, muscles and joints, and reduces falls among older adults (CDC, 1996). Public recognition of the importance of PA has urged for the promotion of PA at national and population levels (WHO, 2007).[0003]An example of the population level PA promotion is that schools are requested to teach adequate knowledge, provide enough facilities, and devise appropriate policy to pr...
