Poster Abstract: Adaptive Gym Exercise Counting for myHealthAssistant
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents an adaptive counting approach that captures weightlifting exercise repetitions despite fluctuations in the speed of performing. By having a hybrid counting approach that utilizes both state counting based on mean acceleration information and a sensor-based peak detection, reliable gym exercise counting with low transmission rates is achieved. Both approaches are running in parallel and enable the system to adapt to changes in the exercise speed in real-time and without losing counting information sent in the past.

How can the formation of beneficial, lasting habits be promoted? Previous research suggests that persistent habits often involve regular, cue-triggered routines. We conducted a field experiment with 2,508 employees of a Fortune 500 company to test whether incentives for exercise routines—paying participants each time they visit a company gym within a daily two-hour window—lead to more persisten...
