Wearable Device Course Creation Using Landmark Identification
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional course creation support systems lack the ability to efficiently create customized circuit courses based on user preferences and real-time location data, limiting the personalization and accuracy of jogging routes.
Innovation Solution
A course creation support system that utilizes a social networking site connected to wrist terminals and smartphones, allowing users to set and customize courses by specifying starting and finishing points, landmarks, and distances, with the server generating and recording custom courses based on GPS data and user feedback.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional course creation support systems are used, then basic course generation is possible, but the ability to efficiently create customized circuit courses based on user preferences and real-time location data is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-acquires landmark information and area information before course creation. The identification module identifies circuit course components by matching real-time GPS data against pre-stored landmark and area data, enabling efficient customized course generation without real-time computation delays
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates ideal circuit courses by copying and combining identified components (landmarks, areas) according to user specifications. The creation module generates customized courses by assembling pre-identified components rather than computing entirely new routes, improving both customization and efficiency
2Adaptability or versatility
If conventional course creation methods are used, then standard routes can be generated, but personalized courses reflecting actual running routes and preferences cannot be created
Solution Approach 1:
The system continuously receives real-time GPS location data during running and compares it with the created circuit course. This feedback mechanism allows the system to verify route accuracy against actual running paths and make adjustments to better match user preferences and actual routes taken
Solution Approach 2:
The course creation process is divided into distinct modules: acquisition module for gathering data, identification module for recognizing circuit components, and creation module for assembling personalized routes. This segmentation allows each module to specialize in specific tasks, improving both personalization capability and route precision

AI summary
A course creation support apparatus includes an acquisition module configured to acquire at least one of area information indicative of an area and landmark information indicative of a landmark, an identification module configured to identify a component of a circuit course based on the information acquired by the acquisition module, and a creation module configured to create a circuit course includes the component identified by the identification module.
