Benefits of technology

[0008]The present invention is to provide an assembly and operating method to accurately determine effective motion and count thereof to measure an exercise amount.

Problems solved by technology

The mechanical pedometer may not measure the number of steps accurately in a pocket and on a necklace where vertical vibration may be not transferred accurately.
In addition, in the case where the pedometer is not attached vertically with respect to the ground o the internal pendulum does not vibrate properly and measurement is not properly made.
That is, since the conventional pedometer using various sensors applies one algorithm optimized for a specific mounting method, the number of steps may not be accurately counted when a user uses unexpected mounting method.

Abstract

An assembly for measuring an exercise amount corresponding to a user's motion is provided. The assembly includes mounting kits and a unit for measuring an exercise amount. The unit is selectively fixed to one of the mounting kits that are placed on designated body portions of the user to measure an exercise amount corresponding to a motion of the user by applying an algorithm corresponding to the selected mounting kit. The assembly makes accurate measurement of an exercise amount possible by detecting various mounting locations of the unit mounted on a user and automatically applies an algorithm optimized for different locations.

Description

CLAIM OF PRIORITY[0001]This application claims the benefit of the earlier data, under 35 U.S.C. §119, to that patent application, entitled ASSEMBLY AND OPERATING METHOD FOR EXERCISE AMOUNT MEASURING, filed in the Korean Intellectual Property Office on Mar. 16, 2009 and afforded serial No. 10-2009-0022144, the contents of which are incorporated by reference in its entirety, herein.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to the field of exercise and more particularly, to an assembly and operating method for accurately determining an amount or exercise.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]In response to interesting of health, terminals corresponding to the same are being manufactured in various different forms. For example, a pedometer is one of apparatus for measuring an exercise amount performed by a person during a walking activity or exercise. The pedometer counts the number of steps taken and displays an exercise effect...
