Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the drawings, the same reference numerals are used to designate the same or similar components throughout the drawings. In the following description of the present invention, a detailed description of known functions and configurations incorporated herein will be omitted when it may make the subject matter of the present invention rather unclear. In addition, the preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below, but it is needless to say that the technical idea of the present invention is not limited thereto and can be variously modified by those skilled in the art.

FIG. 1 is a conceptual diagram of a remote EMS training system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a configuration diagram of an EMS apparatus of a remote EMS training system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, FIG. FIG. 5 is a configuration diagram of a user terminal of a remote EMS training system according to an example.

1, a remote EMS training system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention includes an EMS (electrical muscle stimulation) apparatus 100, a user terminal 200, a coaching center terminal 300, and a server 400 .

Referring to FIG. 2, the electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) device 100 includes a power module 110 and a muscle contraction stimulation module 120.

When the power source of the power module 110 is turned on, the muscle contraction stimulation module 120 operates to transmit a current equal to or less than a threshold value to transmit stimulation to the muscles. When applying electricity to the user's muscles, the muscle layer contracts. When the electrical stimulation is stopped, relaxation can induce contraction and relaxation of the muscle layer.

For example, the muscle contraction stimulation module 120 can be applied as a dedicated suit with a current pad. When the user wears a private suit and turns on the power of the EMS device 100, The stimulus can be transmitted by the electric patch.

It is preferable to apply a minute current of 100 hz or less to the current intensity. When a micro current of 50 hz or less is applied, the feeling to be felt on the skin is so fine that the exercise effect is inferior. However, the current intensity is not limited to a specific value.

Is transmitted to the user terminal 200 through the exercise information wireless communication module 150 measured through the muscle contraction stimulation module 120 of the EMS device 100. The user can perform remote EMS training Run the application that provides the service to verify exercise information.

Herein, the motion information refers to muscle strength information indicating the result of muscle contraction due to electrical stimulation through the EMS device 100.

The EMS device 100 may be capable of controlling the intensity of stimulation of the muscles within a predetermined range through the infrared transmission / reception signal with the user terminal 200 and on / off control of the power source.

To this end, the EMS device 100 includes an infrared sensing module 10 for transmitting and receiving an infrared signal of the user terminal 200 to control the EMS device 100, an MCU module 10 for controlling the infrared sensing module 10, And a wireless communication module 140 for transmitting data to the user terminal 200.

The coaching center terminal 300 is a center for providing remote coaching by reviewing exercise information of a user and extracts contents of a specific exercise method and exercise attitude from the server 400 based on the member information transmitted from the user terminal 200 To the user terminal 200, reproduces the remote image, and coaches the exercise method and the like through real-time voice and image.

For example, if the user takes a posture to strengthen the shoulder muscle, the coaching trainer can remotely provide the number and set of times the program is run, or control the intellectual and muscular strength control over the incorrect exercise posture.

The coaching center terminal 300 is provided in a center where remote coaching is performed including a home, a health care center, and a public health center, and is applicable via a wireless network.

The server 400 stores contents including member information, exercise attitude, and exercise method, and transmits the contents to the user terminal 200 and the coaching center terminal 300.

For example, the server 400 may provide a motion pattern corresponding to the body management program, the physical fitness program, the aerobic program, the massage program, the rehabilitation program, the correction and the fascia pain program in an operation form including animation.

Hereinafter, an exemplary screen of an application implemented in the user terminal 200 of the remote EMS training system according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described.

Referring to FIG. 3, the application of the user terminal 200 provides user information registration, exercise program selection, remote assistance setting, remote control, and dual setting menu.

The user information registration module 210 can input member information including age, gender, and exercise information to be registered.

The exercise program setting module 220 allows a user to set a program that matches the user's exercise goals. For example, a menu may be provided that includes a body management program, a physical strength program, an aerobic program, a massage program, a rehabilitation program, a correction and a fascia program.

When the user information registration module 210 and the exercise program setting module 220 are set, they are transmitted to and stored in the server 400, and are transmitted when the coaching center terminal 300 requests the corresponding information.

The remote support module 230 executes a remote support service to activate a remote function between the coaching center terminal 300 and the user terminal 200. When the remote function is activated, real-time video and audio are output to the screen between both terminals.

The dual module 240 may be configured such that one of the remote coaching center image, the image representing the exercise method and the exercise posture is disposed in the first display area, the user image is placed in the second display area, Increase.

The remote control module 250 is interlocked through the EMS device 100 and the wireless communication module 260 to control the intensity of the stimulus applied to the muscles and to control the ON /
