[0040]

[0041] According to one embodiment, the electronic device (100) described above may provide health-related functions. For example, the electronic device (100) may detect the user's activities through the sensor (170). In addition, the electronic device (100) may guide the user's activities so that the user can achieve a specified goal. This will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 2A to 16 below. In addition, at least one of the embodiments described with reference to FIGS. 2A to 16 below may be combined with other embodiments.

[0042]

[0043] FIG. 2a is a diagram for explaining an operation of providing an activity guide of an electronic device (100) according to an embodiment. FIG. 2b is a diagram for explaining an operation of setting a target value of an electronic device (100) according to an embodiment, and FIG. 2c is a diagram for explaining an operation of predicting the possibility of achieving a target value of an electronic device (100) according to an embodiment.

[0044] Referring to FIG. 2A, according to an embodiment, an electronic device (100) may provide an activity guide to help a user achieve a specified goal. In an embodiment, the activity guide may include activities (e.g., recommended activities) that the user must perform during a specified period of time. Additionally or optionally, the activity guide may also include the amount of activity (e.g., recommended activity) that the user must perform to achieve the specified goal. The electronic device (100) providing the activity guide according to an embodiment will be described in more detail below.

[0045] As part of its operation of providing activity guidance, the electronic device (100) may set (or designate, select, or determine) a goal to be achieved. For example, the electronic device (100) may perform an operation of setting a goal related to the user (e.g., a goal the user wishes to achieve).

[0046] In one embodiment, the goal to be achieved may be an activity that the user wishes to achieve (hereinafter referred to as a target activity). In one embodiment, the target activity may be related to a health indicator indicating the health status of an individual or a designated group (e.g., a family). In one embodiment, the target activity may include an activity to regulate (e.g., increase, decrease, or maintain) at least one of sleep, physical activity, stress, blood pressure, blood sugar, food, body weight, body composition, or water intake. However, this is merely exemplary, and the target activities mentioned in one embodiment are not limited to those related to health indicators.

[0047] According to an embodiment, the electronic device (100) may provide a first user interface (211) as part of an operation of setting a goal. The first user interface (211) may enable designation (or input, or selection) of a target activity. In one embodiment, the first user interface (211) may include information (211-1) (e.g., “Enter target activity”) indicating that designation (or input, or selection) of a target activity is possible, as in the example of 210 of FIG. 2A. In one embodiment, the first user interface (211) may provide an activity list (211-2) including designated activities (e.g., weight loss, stress reduction, and physical strength increase). For example, the designated activities may be provided in a form selectable by user input.

[0048] However, this is merely exemplary, and embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. For example, a designated event (e.g., a 'wedding event' or a 'profile photo shoot event' requiring weight control, an 'exam event' requiring sleep control, or a 'business meeting event' requiring stress control) containing a specific goal (or from which a specific goal can be inferred) may be provided through the activity list (211-2). In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may provide the first user interface (211) through the execution screen of a designated application (e.g., a health application).

[0049] In this regard, the electronic device (100) may receive a user input for the first user interface (211) (e.g., an activity list (211-2)) and set at least one of the designated activities corresponding to the user input as a target activity. In one embodiment, the user input designating the target activity may include a touch input, a voice input, and / or a button input.

[0050] According to an embodiment, the first user interface (211) (e.g., activity list (211-2)) may include a first menu (211-3) (e.g., direct setting) for receiving input of a specific activity other than the designated activities. In this regard, when the electronic device (100) detects a user input for the first menu (211-3), it may provide a first sub-interface (221) (e.g., input window) for directly receiving a specific activity, as in the example of 220 of FIG. 2A. In addition, the electronic device (100) may also set a target activity (e.g., wedding photography) based on the user input received through the first sub-interface (221).

[0051] Additionally or optionally, the electronic device (100) may set a guide schedule (or guide period) as part of the operation of setting a target activity. In one embodiment, the guide schedule may be a schedule (or period) during which activity guidance related to the target activity is provided. In one embodiment, the guide schedule may also be a period (or point in time) within which the goal must be achieved.

[0052] According to an embodiment, the electronic device (100) may provide a second user interface (213) as part of an operation of setting a guide schedule. In one embodiment, the second user interface (213) may enable designation (or input, or selection) of a guide schedule. In one embodiment, the second user interface (213) may include information (213-1) (e.g., “Set a target schedule”) indicating that designation (or input, or selection) of a guide schedule is possible, as in the example of 210 of FIG. 2A. In one embodiment, the second user interface (213) may provide a schedule list (213-2) including designated schedules (e.g., for a week or a month). In one embodiment, the designated schedules may be provided in a form selectable by user input. According to an embodiment, the second user interface (213) may be provided together with the first user interface (211). However, this is merely exemplary, and embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. For example, the second user interface (213) may be provided before or after the first user interface (211) is provided.

[0053] In this regard, the electronic device (100) may receive a user input for the second user interface (213) (e.g., schedule list (213-2)) and set at least one of the designated schedules corresponding to the user input as a guide schedule. In one embodiment, the user input for designating the guide schedule may include a touch input, a voice input, and / or a button input.

[0054] According to an embodiment, the second user interface (213) (e.g., schedule list (213-2)) may include a second menu (213-3) (e.g., set directly) for receiving input of a specific schedule other than the designated schedule. In this regard, when the electronic device (100) detects a user input for the second menu (213-3), it may provide a second sub-interface (223) (e.g., calendar screen) for receiving a specific schedule, as in the example of 220 of FIG. 2A. In addition, the electronic device (100) may set a guide schedule for a specific schedule (or schedule section) corresponding to the user input for the second sub-interface (223).

[0055] In the above-described embodiment, the components (211-1, 211-2, 211-3 and 221) of the first user interface (211) and the components (213-1, 213-2, 213-3 and 223) of the second user interface (213) are provided in visual form, but depending on the embodiment, at least some of them may be provided in other forms (e.g., auditory information).

[0056] The electronic device (100) may generate a first activity guide (231) as part of an operation of providing an activity guide. In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may generate the first activity guide (231) in response to a goal to be achieved (e.g., a target activity and / or a guide schedule) being set.

[0057] In one embodiment, the first activity guide (231) may recommend activities that the user should perform during a specified period of time. In one embodiment, the specified period of time may be the aforementioned guide schedule (e.g., a schedule selected via the second user interface (213). In one embodiment, the first activity guide (231) may include recommended activities (e.g., sleeping activities, walking activities) that the user should perform consistently every day until the specified period of time, as in the example of 230 in FIG. 2A. These recommended activities are activities that help achieve goals (e.g., stress control and / or weight control) related to a set target activity (e.g., wedding photography), and this will be described in more detail with reference to FIG. 9 below. In one embodiment, the first activity guide (231) may additionally or optionally include recommended activity amounts (e.g., maintaining 8 hours of sleep, walking 10,000 steps) that the user should perform consistently every day until the specified period of time, as in the example of 230 in FIG. 2A. In one embodiment, the recommended amount of activity provided through the first activity guide (231) may be interpreted as the first level (or intensity) of activity required to achieve the goal.

[0058] As described above, when setting a goal, the electronic device (100) may set an abstract goal for a target activity (e.g., weight loss) without explicitly specifying a target value (e.g., a weight loss value). However, this is merely exemplary, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. For example, the electronic device (100) may also set a concrete goal for which a target value is explicitly specified (e.g., a goal of losing 5 kg, walking 10 km, or achieving a body fat percentage of 15%). This will be described in more detail below.

[0059] Referring to FIG. 2B , in one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may provide a third user interface (241) as part of an operation of setting a specific concept goal. In one embodiment, the third user interface (241) may enable designation of a sub-goal for a designated target activity. In one embodiment, the sub-goal may be a goal that can be expected (or achieved) through the designated target activity. In one embodiment, as in the example of 240 of FIG. 2B , a sub-goal for a walking activity may include at least one of a distance to be achieved (e.g., distance goal), an exercise time (e.g., exercise time goal), calories (e.g., calorie goal), or a route (e.g., route goal). Additionally or optionally, the third user interface (241) may also include a third menu (e.g., no goal) that indicates not to designate a separate goal value.

[0060] In this regard, the electronic device (100) may receive a user input for the third user interface (241) and set a target value related to at least one of the designated sub-goals corresponding to the user input. In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may set at least one of a target value related to distance (e.g., 1 km), a target value related to exercise time (e.g., 1 hour), a target value related to calories (e.g., 300 kcal), or a target value related to a route (e.g., a walking course) based on the user input.

[0061] According to an embodiment, the electronic device (100) may receive a user input for the third user interface (241) and select at least one of the sub-goals corresponding to the user input. In addition, the electronic device (100) may provide a fourth user interface (251) related to the selected sub-goal. The fourth user interface (251) may enable designation (or input, or selection) of a target value for the sub-goal. In one embodiment, as in the example of 250 of FIG. 2B , the fourth user interface (251) may provide a reference value for the selected sub-goal (e.g., a reference value of 1.00 km for a walking goal). In this regard, the electronic device (100) may receive a user input for the fourth user interface (251) (e.g., at least a portion of the reference value) and set the target value by increasing or decreasing the reference value based on the user input.

[0062] Additionally or optionally, the electronic device (100) may predict the possibility of achieving the target value when setting the target value. In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may predict the possibility of achieving the target value based on at least one of the user's profile information (e.g., gender, height, weight, or age), past activity history information (e.g., activity duration, activity distance, activity intensity, or preferred activity), a guide schedule, or a target value. In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may predict that the user can sufficiently achieve the target value (e.g., predict successful achievement) when the past activity duration is above a certain level and the target value is set relatively low. In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may predict that the user will have difficulty achieving the target value (e.g., predict failure to achieve) when the activity duration is below a certain level and the target value is set relatively high. Additionally or alternatively, in one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may predict (e.g., predict successful achievement) that the user can sufficiently achieve the target value when the activity duration is below a certain level but the activity intensity is above a certain level and the target value is set relatively high.

[0063] According to an embodiment, the electronic device (100) may additionally consider additional information (e.g., profile information of other users, activity history of other users, and / or target values ​​of other users) when predicting the possibility of achieving a target value. In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may, based on the additional information, identify target values ​​(e.g., reference values) that other users of the same or similar age as the user have achieved (or failed to achieve). In addition, the electronic device (100) may compare a target value set by the user with the reference value to predict the possibility of achieving the target value. In one embodiment, if the difference between the reference value and the target value is greater than a certain level, the electronic device (100) may predict that the user will have difficulty achieving the target value.

[0064] According to an embodiment, the electronic device (100) can provide a prediction result regarding the possibility of achievement.

[0065] In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may provide a first prediction result (261) associated with a positive prediction result. In one example, the first prediction result (261) may include at least one of a message indicating that the achievement of the target value is positive (e.g., "You can look forward to achieving the target") and / or a message encouraging the achievement of the target (e.g., "Keep working hard and you will achieve good results"), as illustrated in the example of 260 of FIG. 2C .

[0066] In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may provide a second prediction result (271) related to a negative prediction result. In one example, the second prediction result (271) may include at least one of a message indicating that the achievement of the target value is negative (e.g., "Target achievement may be difficult") and / or a message guiding the re-determination of the target value (e.g., "Please determine an appropriate target value"), as illustrated in the example 270 of FIG. 2C . In this regard, the electronic device (100) may perform an operation of resetting the target value after providing the second prediction result (271).

[0067] As described above, the electronic device (100) according to one embodiment can provide a first activity guide (231) to enable a user to take actions required to achieve a specified goal. However, the user may have difficulty acting according to the first activity guide (231). For example, in order to achieve a goal, the user must consistently take actions corresponding to the first activity guide (231). However, if the user's behavior pattern repeats ups and downs, it may not be easy to follow the first activity guide (231), and as a result, the user may fail to achieve the goal.

[0068] In this regard, an electronic device (100) according to one embodiment can provide feedback on whether a goal has been achieved, thereby motivating the user to achieve the goal. This will be described in more detail with reference to FIG. 3 below.

[0069]

[0070] FIG. 3 is a drawing for explaining an operation of providing feedback related to whether a goal has been achieved in an electronic device (100) according to one embodiment.

[0071] Referring to FIG. 3, an electronic device (100) according to one embodiment may provide feedback on goal achievement, either periodically or aperiodically, while the first activity guide (231) is provided. This feedback may motivate the user to pursue goal achievement. In one embodiment, the feedback may include first feedback (310) guiding goal achievement and second feedback (321) guiding goal failure.

[0072] The electronic device (100) may monitor (or track) the user's activity performance as part of an operation of providing feedback (e.g., the first feedback (310) and / or the second feedback (321)). In one embodiment, the activity performance may be an activity of the user performed while (or after) the first activity guide (231) is provided. In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may detect (or measure) the user's activity based on information collected through a sensor (170). In one embodiment, the sensor (170) may include a sensor configured to collect information associated with movement and / or positioning (e.g., at least one of a pedometer, an acceleration sensor, a gyro sensor, or a global positioning system (GPS) sensor).

[0073] Additionally, the electronic device (100) may determine whether the user has achieved a specified goal based on at least a portion of the monitoring operation (e.g., the monitoring result). In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may determine that the goal has been achieved if the user's activity satisfies the specified goal value. In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may determine that the goal has not been achieved if the user's activity does not satisfy the specified goal value. In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may determine whether the goal has been achieved by accumulating the user's activity detected from the time the first activity guide (231) is provided.

[0074] According to an embodiment, in response to determining that a goal has been achieved, the electronic device (100) may provide first feedback (310) that guides goal achievement.

[0075] In one embodiment, the first feedback (310) may include information indicating the achievement of a goal and a corresponding reward (e.g., a badge and / or coupon) (311-1), as in the example of 300 of FIG. 3. In one embodiment, the first feedback (310) may additionally or optionally include today's activity record (311-2) (e.g., activity amount). In one embodiment, the first feedback (310) may additionally or optionally include a past activity record (312). In one example, the past activity record (312) may include a daily activity amount. According to an embodiment, the daily activity amount may be represented as a bar graph (312-1) having a first attribute (e.g., length) proportional to the activity amount of the corresponding day. In one example, the past activity record may indicate whether the daily goal has been achieved. According to an embodiment, a bar graph of a date on which the goal (312-2) was successfully achieved may be assigned a second attribute (e.g., a first color), and a bar graph of a date on which the goal (312-2) was not successfully achieved may be assigned a third attribute (e.g., a second color).

[0076] In some embodiments, the electronic device (100) may, in response to determining a failure to achieve a goal, provide second feedback (321) indicating the failure to achieve the goal. In one embodiment, the second feedback (321) may include an encouraging message to increase the user's activity (e.g., "With a little more effort, you can achieve the goal"), as illustrated in example 320 of FIG. 3 .

[0077] As described above, the electronic device (100) according to one embodiment can motivate the user by providing feedback on whether the goal has been achieved while the first activity guide (231) is provided. However, motivation using feedback alone has difficulty contributing to goal achievement. For example, after a certain number of repeated failures to achieve the goal (e.g., failing to achieve the daily goal for a certain period of time), there is a possibility that the user will fail to achieve the goal even if he or she takes actions corresponding to the existing first activity guide (231) during the remaining period.

[0078] In this regard, the electronic device (100) according to one embodiment can contribute to the achievement of a goal by providing a second activity guide while providing a first activity guide (231). This will be described in more detail below.

[0079]

[0080] FIGS. 4 and 5 are drawings for explaining a second activity guide of an electronic device (100) according to one embodiment.

[0081] Referring to FIG. 4, an electronic device (100) according to one embodiment may provide a second activity guide (411) periodically or aperiodically while the first activity guide (231) is being provided. This second activity guide (411) may encourage the user to perform more intensive activities.

[0082] The electronic device (100) may monitor the user's activity performance as part of the operation of providing the second activity guide (411). In one embodiment, the activity performance may be a user activity performed while (or after) the first activity guide (231) is provided. In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may detect (or measure) the user's activity based on information collected through the sensor (170), as described above with reference to FIG. 3 .

[0083] According to an embodiment, the electronic device (100) may calculate an activity score related to the user's activity performance as part of the monitoring operation. In one embodiment, the activity score may indicate the degree to which an activity corresponding to the first activity guide (231) has been performed. In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may calculate the activity score based on the first activity guide (231) and the user activity of the corresponding cycle in a specified cycle unit (e.g., daily unit). For example, a relatively high activity score may be calculated as the first activity guide (231) and the user activity of the corresponding cycle match each other. Additionally, a relatively low activity score may be calculated as the first activity guide (231) and the user activity of the corresponding cycle differ from each other.

[0084] For example, in a situation where 8 hours of sleep maintenance and 10,000 step walking activity are recommended through the first activity guide (231), if the user sleeps for 6 hours and walks 8,000 steps, the electronic device (100) may calculate a relatively low activity score for the sleep activity and a relatively low activity score for the walking activity.

[0085] For example, in a situation where maintaining 8 hours of sleep and walking 10,000 steps are recommended through the first activity guide (231), if the user sleeps for 6 hours and performs walking activity (e.g., walking 13,000 steps) exceeding the target steps (e.g., walking 10,000 steps) or walking activity close to the target steps (e.g., walking 9,000 steps), the electronic device (100) may calculate a relatively low activity score for the sleeping activity and a relatively high activity score for the walking activity.

[0086] Additionally or optionally, the electronic device (100) may assign a weight to the activity score based on the importance of the recommended activity. In one embodiment, the importance may be selected (or specified, or determined) by the user or may be selected based on the degree of influence on goal achievement. For example, if the first activity guide (231) recommends activities such as maintaining 8 hours of sleep and walking 10,000 steps, and the sleep activity has a high importance, the electronic device (100) may assign a weight (α) (e.g., 80*α) to the activity score (e.g., 80) calculated for the sleep activity.

[0087] According to an embodiment, the electronic device (100) may predict the possibility of achieving a designated goal based on the activity score calculated over a certain period of time. In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may predict the possibility of achieving a designated goal based on the activity score calculated over a certain period of time and a designated threshold score. In one embodiment, if the calculated activity score is less than the designated threshold score, the electronic device (100) may predict that the goal will not be achieved even if the user takes an action corresponding to the first activity guide (231) during the remaining guide schedule. In one embodiment, if the calculated activity score is greater than or equal to the designated threshold score, the electronic device (100) may predict that the goal will be successfully achieved if the user takes an action corresponding to the first activity guide (231) during the remaining guide schedule.

[0088] According to an embodiment, the electronic device (100) may provide a second activity guide (411) based on a prediction that the goal will not be achieved. In one embodiment, the second activity guide (411) may include a second level of recommended activities that are higher than the first level. For example, the electronic device (100) may provide a second activity guide (411) that recommends reducing sleeping activities and increasing walking activities compared to the first activity guide (231) in order to achieve the goal, as shown in the example of 410 of FIG. 4. In one embodiment, the second activity guide (411) may additionally or optionally include a second level of recommended activities that are higher than the first level. For example, the electronic device (100) may provide a second activity guide (411) that recommends a second level of activity (e.g., maintaining 7 hours of sleep, walking 13,000 steps) that is higher than the first activity guide (231) in order to achieve a goal, as in the example of 410 of FIG. 4.

[0089] As described above, the electronic device (100) according to one embodiment may provide a second activity guide (411) that adjusts the recommended activity amount included in the first activity guide (231). However, this is merely exemplary, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

[0090] In one embodiment, the second activity guide (411) may include activities different from the recommended activities included in the first activity guide (231). For example, while the first activity guide (231) recommends sleep activities that are helpful for stress management, the electronic device (100) may provide a second activity guide (421) that recommends hobby activities that are more helpful for stress management, as shown in the example 420 of FIG. 4 .

[0091] In one embodiment, the second activity guide (411) may include only some of the recommended activities included in the first activity guide (231). For example, while the first activity guide (231) recommends a sleeping activity that helps control stress and a walking activity that helps control weight, the electronic device (100) may provide a second activity guide (511) that includes only some of these activities (e.g., a walking activity), as in the example 510 of FIG. 5 .

[0092] In this regard, the electronic device (100) may select an activity to be provided as the second activity guide (511) based on the user's activity performance while the first activity guide (231) is provided or the user's activity performance in the past. In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may select an activity that relatively corresponds to a target value (e.g., an activity that the user performed relatively well following the first activity guide) among the activities recommended through the first activity guide (231) and recommend it as the second activity guide (511). According to an embodiment, the electronic device (100) may select an activity that has a relatively high possibility of achieving a target value (e.g., an activity that most exceeds the target value, an activity whose activity level is maintained at a certain level) among the activities recommended through the first activity guide (231) and recommend it as the second activity guide (511).

[0093] In one embodiment, the second activity guide (411) may include only activities preferred by the user. Depending on the embodiment, the second activity guide (411) may include activities designated by the user among the recommended activities included in the first activity guide (231) or activities designated by the user but not included in the first activity guide (231).

[0094] In this regard, the electronic device (100) may provide a fifth user interface (521) that enables the designation of preferred activities, as in the example of 520 of FIG. 5. In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may select at least one activity selected through the fifth user interface (521) and recommend it as a second activity guide (511).

[0095] In one embodiment, the second activity guide (411) may include recommended activities having similar characteristics to the first activity guide (231).

[0096] For example, if an aerobic exercise such as a walking activity, yoga activity, running activity, cycling activity, swimming activity, or rope jumping activity is provided as a first activity guide (231), the electronic device (100) may also recommend another aerobic exercise not included in the first activity guide (231) as a second activity guide (411). For example, an aerobic exercise provided as a second activity guide (411) may have a higher activity intensity than an aerobic exercise provided as a first activity guide (231).

[0097] For example, if an activity that can be performed indoors, such as yoga or swimming, is provided as the first activity guide (231), the electronic device (100) may also recommend another aerobic exercise that can be performed indoors, not included in the first activity guide (231), as the second activity guide (411). For example, the aerobic exercise provided as the second activity guide (411) may have a higher activity intensity than the aerobic exercise provided as the first activity guide (231).

[0098] In one embodiment, the second activity guide (411) may include recommended activities having different characteristics from the first activity guide (231).

[0099] For example, if an aerobic exercise such as walking, yoga, running, cycling, swimming, or jumping rope is provided as the first activity guide (231), the electronic device (100) may also recommend an anaerobic exercise such as squats or push-ups as the second activity guide (411). For example, the anaerobic exercise provided as the second activity guide (411) may have a higher activity intensity than the aerobic exercise provided as the first activity guide (231).

[0100] For example, if an activity that can be performed indoors, such as yoga or swimming, is provided as the first activity guide (231), the electronic device (100) may also recommend an aerobic exercise that can be performed outdoors as the second activity guide (411). For example, the aerobic exercise provided as the second activity guide (411) may have a higher activity intensity than the aerobic exercise provided as the first activity guide (231).

[0101]

[0102] FIG. 6 is a drawing for explaining the timing of providing the first activity guide (231) and the second activity guide (411) according to one embodiment.

[0103] Referring to FIG. 6, an electronic device (100) according to one embodiment may provide a second activity guide (411) periodically or aperiodically while a first activity guide (231) is provided.

[0104] In one embodiment, the first activity guide (231) may be provided during the guide schedule. In one embodiment, the guide schedule may be from the goal setting time (e.g., the time at which the goal is set) (601) to the goal achievement time (603) (e.g., the time at which the goal must be achieved).

[0105] In one embodiment, the second activity guide (411) may be provided during a portion of a period (A) (615) (hereinafter, referred to as an activity concentration period) during a period (e.g., guide schedule) during which the first activity guide (231) is provided. The activity concentration period (A) (615) may be a period during which a higher level (or intensity) of activity should be intensively performed. In one embodiment, the starting point of the activity concentration period (A) (615) may be a time point at which failure to achieve is predicted (e.g., time point at which failure to achieve is predicted) (605). In one embodiment, the ending point (607) of the activity concentration period (A) (615) may be a time point (607) prior to the goal achievement point (603). In one embodiment, the provision of the first activity guide (231) may be resumed at the end of the activity concentration period (A) (615).

[0106] As described above, the electronic device (100) can enable the user to perform a higher level of activity during the activity concentration period (A) (615). In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) can dynamically adjust the activity concentration period (A) (615). This will be described in more detail below.

[0107]

[0108] FIGS. 7A to 7D are drawings for explaining a concentrated activity period (A) (615) according to one embodiment.

[0109] Referring to FIG. 7A, in one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may determine an intensive activity period (A) (615) based on an activity score calculated based on a specified cycle. In one embodiment, the intensive activity period (A) (615) may be determined based on a difference (S1-S2) between an expected score (S1) and an actually calculated activity score (S2) in a specified cycle. In one embodiment, the expected score (S1) may be a reference score used to determine whether a goal has been successfully achieved.

[0110] In one embodiment, if the difference (S1-S2) between the expected score (S1) and the actual calculated activity score (S2) is less than a specified threshold (TH) (case 1: (S1 - S2) <TH), 전자 장치(100)는, 도 7a의 710의 예시와 같이, 집중 활동 기간(A)(615)을 지정된 기간(T)(예: 3일) 보다 일정 수준(a)(예: 1일) 긴 기간(T+a)(예: 4일)으로 결정할 수 있다. 그러나, 이는 예시적일 뿐, 본 개시의 실시 예들이 이에 제한되는 것은 아니다. 예컨대, 기대 점수(S1)와 실제 산출된 활동 점수(S2)의 차이가 지정된 임계값(TH) 미만인 경우에서, 전자 장치(100)는, 집중 활동 기간(A)(615)을 지정된 기간(T)(예: 3일) 보다 일정 수준(a)(예: 1일) 짧은 기간(T-a)(예: 2일)으로 결정할 수도 있다.

[0111] In one embodiment, if the difference (S1-S2) between the expected score (S1) and the actually calculated activity score (S2) is greater than or equal to a specified threshold value (TH) (case 2: (S1 - S2) >TH), the electronic device (100) may determine the intensive activity period (A) (615) to be a period (Ta) (e.g., 2 days) that is a certain level (a) (e.g., 1 day) shorter than the specified period (T) (e.g., 3 days), as in the example of 720 of FIG. 7a. However, this is merely exemplary, and embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. For example, in a case where the difference between the expected score (S1) and the actually calculated activity score (S2) is greater than a specified threshold value (TH), the electronic device (100) may determine the intensive activity period (A) (615) to be a period (T+a) (e.g., 4 days) that is a certain level (a) (e.g., 1 day) longer than the specified period (T) (e.g., 3 days).

[0112] Additionally or optionally, the electronic device (100) may determine an intensive activity period (A) (615) based on an activity score (S2) calculated based on a specified cycle and a remaining guide schedule (D). In one embodiment, the intensive activity period (A) (615) may be determined in proportion to the activity score (S2) and the remaining guide schedule (D).

[0113] In one embodiment, when a relatively high activity score (S2) is calculated (e.g., 50 points) (case 3), the electronic device (100) may determine the intensive activity period (A) (615) (e.g., 3.5 days) by reflecting the remaining guide schedule (D) (e.g., 7 days) in the percentage (e.g., 50 / 100) of the calculated activity score (S2), as in the example of 730 of FIG. 7b (e.g., 0.5*7).

[0114] In one embodiment, when a relatively low activity score (S2) is calculated (e.g., 35 points) (case 4), the electronic device (100) may determine the intensive activity period (A) (615) (e.g., approximately 2.5 days) by reflecting the remaining guide schedule (D) (e.g., 7 days) in the percentage (e.g., 35 / 100) of the calculated activity score (S2), as in the example of 740 of FIG. 7b (e.g., 0.35*7).

[0115] Additionally or optionally, the electronic device (100) may determine a focused activity period based on characteristics of a designated goal. In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may determine different focused activity periods (A) (615) for goals with a designated target value (e.g., a weight loss value) and / or a designated target schedule (e.g., a concrete concept goal) and for goals without a designated target value and / or a designated target schedule (e.g., an abstract concept goal).

[0116] In one embodiment, when a goal (e.g., 5 kg weight loss or wedding photo shoot on November 11) is set with a target value (e.g., weight loss) and / or a target schedule (e.g., a wedding photo shoot scheduled date) (case 5), the electronic device (100) may determine the intensive activity period (A) (615) to be a period (Ta) (e.g., 2 days) that is a certain level (a) (e.g., 1 day) shorter than the specified period (T) (e.g., 3 days), as in the example of 750 of FIG. 7c.

[0117] In one embodiment, when a goal (e.g., weight loss or wedding photo shoot) is set without specifying a target value (e.g., weight loss (e.g., 5 kg)) and / or a target schedule (e.g., a scheduled date for a wedding photo shoot) (case 6), the electronic device (100) may determine the intensive activity period (A) (615) as a period (T+a) (e.g., 4 days) that is a certain level (a) (e.g., 1 day) longer than the specified period (T) (e.g., 3 days), as in the example of 760 of FIG. 7c.

[0118] Additionally or optionally, the electronic device (100) may also determine a focused activity period (A) (615) based on user input. In one embodiment, the focused activity period (A) (615) may be specified by the user.

[0119] In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may provide a sixth user interface (771) that enables the designation of a period of intensive activity (A) (615). In one embodiment, the sixth user interface (771) may provide a list of courses including courses in which higher intensity activities will be conducted (e.g., a one-week course, a ten-day course, or a user-entered course), as in the example of 770 of FIG. 7d.

[0120] In this regard, the electronic device (100) may receive user input for the sixth user interface (771) (e.g., course list) and determine at least one of the courses corresponding to the user input as a focused activity period (A) (615).

[0121] Additionally or optionally, the electronic device (100) may enable changes to the determined intensive activity period (A) (615). In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may provide a seventh user interface (781) when the intensive activity period (A) (615) is determined. In one embodiment, the seventh user interface (781) may include a menu (781-1) that enables changes to the intensive activity period (A) (615), such as the example of 780 in FIG. 7D .

[0122] In this regard, the electronic device (100) may receive user input for the seventh user interface (781) (e.g., menu (781-1)) and increase or decrease the determined intensive activity period (A) (615) based thereon.

[0123] As described above, the electronic device (100) according to one embodiment can dynamically adjust the activity concentration period (A) (615). In this regard, the electronic device (100) can provide a second activity guide (411) corresponding to the activity concentration period (A) (615). This will be described in more detail below.

[0124]

[0125] FIG. 8 is a drawing for explaining a second activity guide (411) of an electronic device (100) according to one embodiment.

[0126] Referring to FIG. 8, an electronic device (100) according to one embodiment can vary the activity level (or activity intensity) of a second activity guide (811) based on a focused activity period (A) (615).

[0127] According to an embodiment, the electronic device (100) may increase the amount of activity required to achieve a goal as the intensive activity period (A) (615) becomes shorter. In other words, the electronic device (100) may induce the user to perform a higher level of activity in the short term during the relatively short intensive activity period (A) (615). In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may provide a second activity guide (811) that reduces the amount of activity for sleeping activities and increases the amount of activity for walking activities, as illustrated in the example of 810 of FIG. 8 .

[0128] According to an embodiment, the electronic device (100) may reduce the amount of activity required to achieve a goal as the period of intensive activity lengthens. In other words, the electronic device (100) may induce a lower level of activity to be performed in the short term during a relatively long period of intensive activity (A) (615) than during a relatively short period of intensive activity (A). In one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may provide a second activity guide (821) that increases the amount of activity for sleeping activities and decreases the amount of activity for walking activities, as illustrated in the example of 820 of FIG. 8 .

[0129] However, this is merely exemplary, and embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. For example, in one embodiment, the electronic device (100) may change (e.g., increase or decrease) the type (or number) of recommended activities based on the duration of focused activity. For example, the electronic device (100) may increase the number of recommended activities as the duration of focused activity shortens.

[0130]

[0131] FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining a recommended activity determination operation of an electronic device (100) according to one embodiment.

[0132] Referring to FIG. 9, an electronic device (100) according to one embodiment may generate a first activity guide including activities (e.g., recommended activities) that a user should perform, as previously mentioned. In this regard, the electronic device (100) may determine at least one recommended activity based on a set target activity.

[0133] The electronic device (100) may, as part of an operation of determining at least one recommended activity, identify an activity category related to a set target activity among a plurality of activity categories. In one embodiment, the plurality of activity categories may include at least one of a first activity category (911) (e.g., a physical activity category), a second activity category (912) (e.g., a social activity category), a third activity category (913) (e.g., an emotional activity category), a fourth activity category (914) (e.g., an intellectual activity category), or a fifth activity category (915) (e.g., a spiritual activity category), as shown in the example of 910 of FIG. 9 . However, this is merely an example, and embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. For example, the plurality of activity categories may include categories different from the aforementioned activity categories.

[0134] In this regard, the electronic device (100) may determine at least one activity corresponding to an identified activity category among activities related to a plurality of health indicators as a recommended activity. In one embodiment, the plurality of health indicators may include at least one of sleep (921), physical activity (922), stress (923), blood pressure (924), blood sugar (925), food (926), weight (927), body composition (928), or water (929), as shown in the example of 920 of FIG. 9 . However, this is merely exemplary, and embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

[0135] For example, when a target activity of 'body fat percentage 15%' is set, the electronic device (100) may determine that the target activity of 'body fat percentage 15%' corresponds to a first activity category (911) (e.g., physical activity category) and a third activity category (913) (e.g., emotional activity category).
