Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of connected sports and more particularly to the field of the methods of quantifying a sports activity. It finds particularly advantageous applications when it is deployed in sports halls and other sports complexes that host a growing number of sportsmen.
- the invention is however not limited in its use to such environments. Indeed, it also applies to sports that are practiced outdoors ("outdoor sports"). More generally, it makes it possible to aggregate quantifications of all sports activities between them wherever they are practiced.
- a sports activity there are several methods of quantifying a sports activity.
- digital platforms implementing a mobile application on a smartphone and a website.
- the application integrates algorithms for quantifying the sports activity of a user by taking advantage of sensors, including GPS, integrated in the smartphone or in a smart watch that communicates with the smartphone.
- the website allows each user to follow his sporting activities and share his performances with other users of the platform.
- a problem of this type of platform is that it is not able to identify the sports activity that it must quantify and therefore requires the user to inform, usually by making a choice in a pre-established list and still today limited.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a sports activity quantification method which makes it possible to overcome one or more of the disadvantages of the known methods.
- an object of the present invention is to provide a method of quantifying sports activity that can improve the quantification of sports activity, without significantly complicating the steps that the user must perform.
- the present invention provides a method for quantifying at least one sports activity that is implemented by a communication system comprising at least: a proximity beacon carried by a sports equipment, at least one measuring equipment intended to be worn by a user and configured to quantify at least one sports activity of a user and a communication node.
- the method comprises the following steps: Communicate between the measuring equipment and the proximity beacon, preferably using a near-field communication technique, so as to recover, at least one of the measuring equipment and the proximity beacon, a first data packet comprising at least one of an identifier relating to a sports activity associated with the sports equipment and an identifier of the measurement equipment;
- At the level of the communication node retrieve parameter data from the measurement equipment at least according to the identifier relating to the sporting activity, or even according to the identifier of the measurement equipment;
- At the level of the measuring equipment parameterize the measuring equipment according to said parameter data and quantify the sports activity of the user of the measurement equipment parameterized according to said parameter data.
- the setting of the measuring equipment according to the sports activity that the user wishes to practice only requires the user to get close enough to the proximity tag to automatically transmit the identifier relative to the sports activity associated with the sports equipment at the node of communication.
- the setting continues without further intervention by the user, independently.
- the method according to the invention thus makes it possible to improve the quantification of a sports activity by making the identification of the sports activity both immediate, preferably prior to its practice, easy, or even transparent, for the user.
- This advantage that the invention provides is therefore particularly valuable for users who are not familiar with connected sports objects, the latter being generally relatively complex to handle.
- the invention is particularly advantageous for clubs, halls or sports complexes that wish to provide their customers with measuring equipment, for example worn by bracelets.
- the method according to the invention does not require further development of already complex motion recognition algorithms, to identify the sporting activity practiced.
- it does not require the development of a generic algorithm to cover a set of activities.
- the solution makes it possible to segment quantization activity by activity and to use dedicated algorithms for each of the activities, with a high or even absolute recognition rate.
- the identification of the sports activity followed by the automatic setting of the measuring equipment makes it possible to perform and interpret measurements in a manner specific to the activity identified.
- the invention thus makes it possible to considerably improve the accuracy of the quantification of sports activity.
- the same upward movement of the wrist will not be interpreted in the same way if the sporting activity is racing or boxing.
- the sporting activity is racing or boxing.
- it will be unused or will be merged with other data to accurately calculate the speed of the runner, in the case of boxing, it will for example be interpreted as an uppercut.
- the method according to the invention therefore contributes to increasing the quality of the experience offered to users compared to existing sports activity quantification devices.
- the present invention relates to a method of quantifying a sports activity, the method being implemented by a communication system comprising at least: a proximity beacon carried by a sports equipment, an equipment of measure intended to be worn by a user and configured to quantify at least one sports activity of a user and a communication node, the method comprising the following steps:
- At the level of the communication node retrieving measurement data from the measurement equipment at least according to the identifier relating to the sports activity and, optionally, the user profile;
- At the level of the measuring equipment parameterize the measuring equipment according to said parameter data and quantify the sports activity of the user of the measurement equipment parameterized according to said parameter data.
- the method according to this variant thus makes it possible to take into account data relating to the user and indicated in his profile, such as for example his level of practice of the sports activity (beginner, amateur, professional), his height, his weight and other physical parameters, so that at least one of these data can be used to process the measurement data of the sensors.
- the level of requirement to validate and count a captured movement can be adjusted differently according to the data relating to the user and entered in His profile. For example, the level of requirement to validate and post a captured uppercut will be higher, if the user is a boxing professional or a beginner. For example, an amplitude requirement of captured motion may be reduced for a smaller user compared to a larger user.
- Another aspect of the present invention relates to a computer program product comprising instructions which, when executed by at least one processor, implement the method of quantifying a sporting activity as introduced above.
- the present invention relates to a non-transitory computer readable medium, comprising instructions which, when executed by at least one processor, implement the method of quantifying a sporting activity as introduced. above.
- FIG. 1 illustrates measurement equipment according to one embodiment of the invention
- FIG. 2 illustrates the measuring equipment of FIG. 1, the case of which is open to reveal its on-board electronic components
- Fig. 3 illustrates a data presentation method used between the measurement equipment of Fig. 1 and a communication node according to an embodiment of the invention
- FIG. 4 illustrates a communication system according to one embodiment of the invention.
- FIG. 5 is a flowchart of the method for quantifying sport activity (s) according to one embodiment of the invention.
- the step of communicating between the measuring equipment and the proximity beacon comprises:
- the communication node furthermore retrieves parameterizing data from each of the other measuring equipment of the plurality and further transmits to each of the other measurement equipment of the plurality, a third data packet comprising at least parameterization data of the plurality of this equipment. If necessary, the parameterization data of each of the other measuring equipment is further recovered according to an identifier of this measuring equipment.
- Each measuring equipment being associated with a unique identifier, the identifier of each of said other measuring equipment can be retrieved by the communication node according to an identifier of the measuring equipment having communicated with the proximity tag.
- the identifier of each of said other measuring equipment has for example been transmitted, from the measuring equipment having communicated with the proximity tag, to the communication node, in the second data packet.
- the method thus makes it possible to manage the parameterization of a plurality of measuring equipment, this plurality being able in particular to be necessary for the quantifying the sports activity of a single user and / or those of a plurality of users.
- the parameterization can be the same or differ from one measuring device to another at least according to the identifier of the measuring equipment, or even the identifier relating to the sports activity.
- the present invention proposes a particularly effective, inexpensive and easy-to-use solution for quantifying a sports activity adapted to the wearing by a user of a plurality of measuring equipment and / or adapted to a sports activity practiced by a plurality of users,
- the method may furthermore comprise, before the step of communication between the measuring equipment and the proximity beacon, at the communication node: Save, by associating them, the identifier of the measuring equipment and data user, for example from a given user profile;
- the method further comprises, before the communication step between the measuring equipment and the proximity beacon, at the communication node:
- the recording also comprises associating the identifier of each of the plurality of measurement equipment with at least one of an integration mode of the measuring equipment and a mode of measurement of the measuring equipment.
- “Integration mode” means a mode in which a measuring equipment is integrated with a sports activity accessory (for example in a boxing glove, in an over-sock, in a helmet, etc.).
- “Scope mode” means a mode in which measuring equipment is worn or intended to be worn by a user, and more specifically by a specific part of the user's body (for example at the wrist, at the waist, at the ankle, etc.).
- the sports equipment is or includes a gym and the beacon can then be carried by a terminal of the gym, and more particularly placed on the floor of the gym or carried by a wall of the gym. sport.
- the proximity tag can be reprogrammable so that the identifier relating to the sporting activity associated with it may vary, for example according to a gym occupation schedule, according to a program of sports. pre-established training or according to a change of equipment.
- the method can be applied to a plurality of measuring equipment.
- the method can provide for the combination of several measuring devices.
- the method can also associate each measurement equipment with a user, and more particularly with a user profile.
- the method also associates each measurement equipment with a user, and more particularly with a user profile.
- the configuration of the measurement equipment thus makes it possible to take into account characteristics related to the user profile (the level in the discipline practiced, but also the physical parameters of the user).
- the method may further associate each measuring equipment with an integration and / or scope mode.
- the communication node can notably retrieve setting data for each measurement equipment taking into account any specificities of the user (for example its recording history (s), its physical parameters (size, weight, age), the level of practice, etc.), the integration mode of the measuring equipment and the measurement mode of the measuring equipment.
- this recording step allows a subsequent aggregation of quantization data obtained that is consistent by taking into account the different associations recorded between measuring equipment (s) and user (s) (and in particular the user data entered in its profile);
- each identifier uniquely identifies a measurement equipment.
- a plurality of measurement equipment may be associated with the same identifier. For example, each user of a "squat" group wears on the wrist a measuring equipment whose identifier is the same as that of the other users of the group.
- the communication system comprises a plurality of spatially distributed communication nodes so as to form a local area network (or LAN for Local Area Network according to the English terminology).
- the least one communication node of the plurality is optionally configured to communicate according to a long-range communication technique for example with at least one of a remote database and another local network formed of another plurality of nodes of communication included in the communication system.
- the method is thus particularly suitable for implementation by a communication system deployed in a sports hall, or even in a sports complex, which can accommodate at the same time a large number of users each carrying one or more measuring equipment and practicing various sports activities. If necessary, several sports halls or sports complexes distant from each other and potentially implementing a local network as introduced above can be connected to each other via long-range communication to provide an enriched experience to a more large number of users;
- the measuring equipment comprises a plurality of sensors and the parameterization of the measuring equipment according to the parameterization data comprises at least the activation or deactivation of at least one of said plurality.
- the method thus makes it possible to control the consumption of electrical energy of the measuring equipment, in particular so as to increase its autonomy;
- the measuring equipment comprises at least one accelerometer, preferably three-axis, and optionally at least one of a gyroscope, preferably three-axis, and a magnetometer, preferably three-axis.
- the quantification of the sporting activity may comprise at least one step of measuring at least one of the following magnitudes: an acceleration, a speed, an amplitude of movement, a number of revolutions per minute, a number of movements per minute , a number of repetitions of movement (s) and a type of movement.
- the method may further comprise, for example following or during the quantization of the sporting activity, the transmission, from each measuring equipment to at least one communication node, of a fourth data packet comprising quantization data of sports activity.
- the method thus makes it possible to aggregate at the level of the communication node the quantization data from each measurement equipment;
- said at least one communication node comprises a mobile telecommunication device, such as a telephone intelligent, and the transmission of the fourth data packet comprises transmitting from said mobile communication device to at least one of another communication node and a remote database.
- the method is not limited in its implementation by the extent of the coverage area of one or more fixed communication nodes.
- the aggregation of the quantification data of the sports activity can take into account, on the one hand, data acquired in sports halls, on the other hand data acquired during outdoor sports activities;
- Each measuring device is synchronized with a clock of a communication node. This helps identify when measurements have been made for real-time applications;
- the communication system further comprising at least one communication device, chosen from at least one audio communication device, a visual communication device and an audiovisual communication device, information content generated by the communication node; for example depending on the identifier relating to the sports activity, the method may further comprise the communication of said information content to at least one user via said at least one communication device.
- the method thus makes it possible to communicate to each user or to a group of users any content of information useful for the practice of a physical activity, for example communication:

- the recording step 109 is not necessarily renewed with each new implementation of the method 100.
- the hub will be able to retrieve the data and their potential associations to a user, a reach mode, etc.
- the hub 30 may for example be made to communicate 170 with the user via the screen, for example so as to let him know that he is well registered as the bearer of the measuring equipment and what mode of range of these measuring equipment is provided in the databases.
- a first step consists in communicating 1 10, from the NFC module 10 to the measurement equipment 20, a first data packet 210 comprising an identifier relating to a sports activity associated with the sports equipment.
- sports activity is here related to the practice of indoor cycling.
- Other data than the identifier relating to the sports activity can be communicated by the first data packet 210, for example the manufacturer, the version, the country or the installation club, of the indoor bike 2.
- the identifier relating to the sports activity may in fact comprise only an identifier of the proximity tag 10 which would have been associated, for example during the installation of the platform, a sports activity. at the hub 30 or the database 40.
- the identification of the activity will be done thereafter via a database that associates the identifier of the tag. to a sports activity or that associates the identifier of the beacon directly with the parameterisation data of the measuring equipment.
- NFC 10 may more particularly include:
- the NFC module 10 placing the measurement equipment 20 and the NFC module 10 in proximity, the NFC module 10 being passive, the reading 1 12a by the measuring equipment 20 of the data stored in the NFC module 10, of which at least 1 identifier of the sports activity, and

- the hub 30 is actually able to transmit 140 to the second measuring equipment, its parameterization data.
- the parameterizing data of the second measuring equipment is transmitted 140 to the first measuring equipment 20 which transmits them to the second. It should be noted here that only one measuring equipment 20 on both 20, 21 must be able to communicate with the NFC module 10; the other 21 of the two measuring devices 20, 21 therefore does not necessarily include NFC communication means.
- a fifth step may consist, at the level of each measuring equipment 20, 21, in parameterizing the measurement equipment according to the parameterization data it has received and then in quantifying the user's sports activity using the equipment. 20, 21 parameterized according to said parameter data. At this stage, at least some of the sensors 201, 21 1 of the measuring equipment 20, 21 are activated.
- the activation of the sensors 201, 21 1 can be carried out immediately after the parameterization of each measuring equipment 20, 21 or be delayed.
- This activation delay may be linked to a predetermined waiting time (which may for example depend on the sporting activity identified: bike race with launched start).
- the activation delay can still be linked to a countdown timer communicated to the user for example display on the screen or linked to an action of a sports coach (for example, the coach manipulates his tablet or smartphone when all the practitioners are ready to start the exercise).
- each measuring equipment 20, 21 comprises a plurality of sensors 201, 21 1
- the parameterization of each measuring equipment 20, 21 may comprise the activation of only some of the sensors 201, 21 1 of said plurality, in function of the received parameter data.

- the hub 30 can still communicate 170 with the user via the screen, for example so as to recommend a posture to adopt by virtual demonstrations of use of the sports equipment or to let him know that the quantization of the sports activity will begin after a countdown displayed.
- each measuring equipment 20, 21 and the communication node 30 can be suppressed by synchronizing their clocks. If the derivation of the clocks of the measuring equipment 20, 21 is low, their synchronization can be performed only when the sensors 201, 21 1 are activated.
- the quantization method 100 may furthermore comprise, for example following or during the quantization 150 of the sporting activity, the transmission 160, from each measuring equipment 20, 21 to the communication node 30, of a fourth data packet. including quantization data of the sports activity.
- the recognition of the movements and the calculation of the performances and the physiological parameters are carried out at the level of at least one of the measurement equipments 20, 21.
- the first measuring equipment 20 measures the heart rate of the user and the second measuring equipment 21 measures a number of revolutions per minute and, if appropriate, a corresponding speed and / or acceleration. In this way, only the results potentially resulting from a pretreatment of the measurements made by the sensors 201, 21 1 are transmitted 160 to the hub 30.
- the hub 30 can communicate 170 with the user via the screen, for example to enable him to follow his performances in real time.
- the method 100 may be reiterated, for example when a first sporting activity is finalized, to start a new sporting activity.
- Another beacon 10 than the one previously requested can be read by the measuring equipment 20, etc.
- the same beacon 10 as the one previously requested can be read by the measuring equipment 20.
- the beacon 10 will in the meantime be reprogrammed to communicate another identifier relating to another sport activity, identifying the new sporting activity to practice.
- This reprogramming can for example be carried out by a sports coach via a communication node for example smartphone or tablet, for example to go from a "squat” activity to a "step” activity during a fitness class .
- this reprogramming can still obey a preset program for example occupation of the gym: from 18h to 20h, yoga classes;
- the quantization method 100 notably allows: a unified numerical monitoring of all the physical activities proposed in the sports and / or fitness rooms, and
- the proposed hardware and software platform allows users to train alone or with others, on machines and without machines, at the same location or remotely.
- Interactive Studio Training in front of a screen (or other) with quantification of the physical effort made by one or more users in real time. The results are displayed on a screen (or other) allowing monitoring and analysis of the effort during the session.
- gamification or "gamification"
- the performance of the avatar regress with the lack of training of the user.
- the performance achieved by the avatar (mirror of the user) can win challenges or other increasingly difficult with a monetization of the effort.
- Air active challenge Users can confront each other in the same gym or remotely on sports challenges (ex: Air combat).
- - Active Game A sports puzzle to solve in a team by reaching / exceeding the objectives / performance threshold defined in a game scenario and measured in real time on the users.
- a first alternative would be to replace the NFC communication with an RFID communication and follow the method 100 described above.
- the NFC module could be replaced by a QR code or a barcode; at least one measuring device 20 must then be equipped with a corresponding reader. For the rest, the process 100 is as described above.
- a second alternative would be that the NFC module 10 is active.
- the method would then comprise, with reference to FIG. 5, the reading 1 12b by the NFC module 10 of data stored in the measurement equipment 20 including at least the identifier of the measuring equipment, and the transmission 1 13b, from the NFC 10 module to the node 30, the first data packet 210 comprising at least the identifier of the sports activity and the identifier of the measuring equipment.
