Exercise Indicator Display Prioritization for Wearable Feedback
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing exercise assistance devices fail to effectively identify and prioritize indicators for improvement during user exercise, limiting the user's ability to enhance their performance efficiently.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device that analyzes exercise data to extract and display high-priority indicators for improvement, using a combination of sensors to measure various parameters, a controller to determine indicator values, and a display to provide real-time feedback on indicators to be improved.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If all indicator values are displayed during exercise, then comprehensive information is provided, but user attention and focus are分散 (scattered)
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and prioritizes only the most important indicator values that need improvement based on comparison with past exercise data. Instead of displaying all indicators equally, the system identifies and highlights specific indicators where the user's current performance deviates most significantly from their personal baseline, thereby reducing information overload while maintaining actionable insights.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies different display priorities to different indicators based on their individual importance to the user's exercise goals. By comparing current indicator values against past performance data, the system dynamically determines which indicators require user attention and displays them with emphasis, while less critical indicators are minimized or omitted from the display.
2Loss of substance
If real-time display of all exercise data is provided, then comprehensive feedback is given, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the essential information needed for exercise improvement by comparing current indicator values against stored past performance data. The controller processes data to identify only the most significant deviations and priorities indicators for display, reducing processing complexity while maintaining meaningful feedback about areas needing improvement.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary comparison of indicator values against past exercise data before displaying information to the user. By pre-processing the data to identify patterns and deviations from personal baselines, the system prepares prioritized feedback in advance, reducing real-time processing requirements and enabling more efficient display of meaningful information.

AI summary
An electronic device to be equipped by a user for acquiring data related to exercise of the user includes an acquirer to acquire a measurement result that is a result of measurement of each of indicator values of a plurality of indicators related to the exercise, a storage to store the measurement result acquired by the acquirer, a display to display information based on the measurement, and a controller to, in response to start of new measurement, based on one or more indicator values that are included in the indicator values of the plurality of indicators included in the measurement result of most recent measurement stored in the storage and that satisfy a predetermined condition, determine a combination of two or more indicators of the plurality of indicators that are to be displayed on the display.
