The memory may be, for example, a flash memory, a RAM, a ROM, a hard disk, or the like. The storage unit 170 may be provided in a form embedded in the exercise guide device 100 or detachable.

The controller 180 may control the configuration of the exercise guide device 100 or manage information. A more detailed description of the function of the controller 180 will be described together in the description of the exercise guide method to be described later.

Hereinafter, the exercise guide method according to the present invention will be described.

In the following description of the exercise guide method according to the present invention, it will be described using the exercise guide device 100 according to the present invention. At this time, the exercise guide device 100 is used to easily explain the exercise guide method according to the present invention. Therefore, the exercise guide method according to the present invention is not limited by the exercise guide device 100 according to the present invention.

The exercise guide method according to the present invention may use another device performing the same function as the exercise guide device 100 according to the present invention.

Hereinafter, the exercise guide method according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 5, 6, 7, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13. 5 is a flow chart of the exercise guide method according to the first embodiment of the present invention, Figure 6 is a view of the exercise pattern according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 7 is a repeating operation according to an embodiment of the present invention 8 is a flowchart illustrating a method of acquiring the number of times of execution, FIG. 8 is a view showing the number of times of repetitive motion based on the exercise pattern according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 10 is a flowchart illustrating a method of acquiring information, FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating speed guide information of a repetitive motion based on an exercise pattern according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. FIG. 12 is a plan view of an output unit 150 according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 13 is a flowchart illustrating a method of outputting breathing guide information according to an embodiment of the present invention. Degrees.

In the exercise guide method according to the first embodiment of the present invention, the step of installing the exercise guide device 100 (S110), the step of detecting the movement to obtain a motion signal (S120) and performing the exercise guide operation ( S130) may be included. Here, the exercise guide operation includes obtaining an exercise pattern (S131), obtaining exercise result information and exercise guide information (S132), and outputting at least one of exercise result information and exercise guide information (S133). can do.

Hereinafter, each step included in the first embodiment of the present invention will be described.

The exercise guide device 100 may be installed at a predetermined position (S110). This predetermined position may be a user or a specific portion of the exercise device (30). The specific part may be an object moving according to the repetitive motion of the user. The object moving according to the user's motion may be a user's body part or a specific part of the exercise device 30. Such areas may include, for example, a user's hand, wrist, foot, ankle, handle of the exercise device 30, wire, weight, and the like. The exercise guide device 100 may be installed on an object moving in a constant direction regardless of the type of exercise event. As the exercise guide device 100 is installed on the object moving in a predetermined direction, the sensor to be described later may have an effect of detecting an objective and standardized motion. Such an object may include, for example, a weight of the exercise device 30 or a wire connected to the weight.

Meanwhile, the exercise guide device 100 does not necessarily need to be installed in contact with the exercise device 30 or the user. For example, when the sensor unit 130 to be described later can detect the movement without contacting the moving object, the exercise guide device 100 may be installed at a position spaced apart from the exercise device 30 or the user. For example, when the sensor unit 130 is such as an optical sensor or a camera, the sensor unit 130 may be installed at a position separated by a predetermined distance from the exercise device 30. This position may be a position where the sensor unit 130 of the exercise guide device 100 to be described later is easy to detect the movement of the weight or wire described above.

The exercise guide device 100 installed at such a position may be simply mounted at the corresponding position. Alternatively, the exercise guide device 100 may be installed on an object moved by the mounting unit 120, including a separate mounting unit 120. Here, the movement guide device 100 is fixed to the object by the mounting unit 120, so that the sensor unit 130 to be described later can detect the movement of the object.

The exercise guide apparatus 100 may detect a movement of an object to obtain a movement signal (S120). The sensor unit 130 may generate a motion signal by detecting a movement of a moving object according to a user's motion. The sensor unit 130 may include at least one of an acceleration sensor, a gyro sensor, a geomagnetic sensor, a motion sensor, an image sensor, and an optical sensor. For example, the acceleration sensor may detect the acceleration according to the movement of the object and generate a motion signal reflecting the acceleration.

The exercise guide apparatus 100 may acquire an exercise pattern (S131). The controller 180 may receive a motion signal from the sensor unit 130 and obtain a motion pattern reflecting the movement of the object based on the motion signal. For example, the controller 180 may acquire a movement pattern reflecting a reciprocating movement of the moving object by the repetitive motion of the user. At this time, the storage unit 170 may store the movement pattern thus obtained.

As shown in FIG. 6, when the user performs a repetitive motion by using a fitness device, the sensor unit 130 of the exercise guide device 100 installed on the wire is vertically upward with respect to the direction of gravity. The motion signal may be obtained by detecting the movement downward and vertically, and the controller 180 may obtain a motion pattern based on the motion signal. The movement pattern may be a pattern regarding reciprocating movement of an object according to a repetitive motion performed by a user. For example, the movement pattern may include at least one of acceleration, speed, movement direction, movement distance, reciprocation period, and time interval between reciprocation motions of the reciprocation motion. Specifically, the sensor unit 130 may detect the acceleration of the object with an acceleration sensor and generate a motion signal corresponding thereto. The controller 180 may acquire such a signal to obtain the acceleration of the reciprocating motion. The controller 180 may acquire the speed of the reciprocating motion by integrating such acceleration. In addition, the controller 180 may obtain the direction of movement of the object based on the reciprocating speed. The controller 180 may acquire the moving distance by integrating the speed. The controller 180 may obtain a round trip period based on the time taken for the object to reciprocate from the initial position and return to the initial position based on the movement distance. In addition, the controller 180 may obtain a time interval from the end of the reciprocation to the start of the reciprocation.

The exercise guide apparatus 100 may obtain exercise result information and exercise guide information (S132). The controller 180 may obtain exercise result information and exercise guide information based on the above-described exercise pattern.

Here, the exercise result information may be information reflecting the result of the exercise performed by the user. The exercise result information may include at least one of an exercise item performed by the user, an exercise amount, a calorie consumption, an exercise time, a weight weight used for the repetitive motion, and an execution frequency of the repetitive motion performed by the user. In detail, the controller 180 may determine the exercise time as the time from the start of the movement to the end of the movement completely according to the exercise pattern. In addition, as illustrated in FIG. 7, the controller 180 may determine that the repetitive operation is performed once when the movement direction according to the movement pattern is changed from vertically upward to vertically downward. Alternatively, as illustrated in FIG. 8, the controller 180 may determine that the object is repeatedly executed when the object is raised, stopped, or lowered according to the reciprocating motion. Therefore, the controller 180 can determine the number of times of repeating operation performed by the user according to the total number of changes in the movement direction.

The exercise guide information may be information for providing an exercise guide to a user who exercises. The exercise guide information includes: exercise event guide information, exercise amount guide information, consumption calorie guide information, weight weight guide information, speed guide information of the repetitive motion, execution frequency guide information of repetitive motion, time interval guide information between repetitive motion, and rest time guide It may include at least one of the information and breathing guide information.

The controller 180 may determine the increase or decrease of the speed of the repetitive motion, the increase or decrease of the weight weight used for the repetitive motion, and the increase or decrease of the number of times of the repetitive motion based on the speed of the reciprocating motion of the object according to the movement pattern.
