Abstract
An exercise feedback provision apparatus includes an acquirer configured to acquire exercise intensity information including either one or both of user biometric information and user movement information, and a controller configured to verify whether the exercise intensity information is in a predetermined range, and generate a control signal based on a result of the verifying. The apparatus further includes a feedback provider configured to output a tactile feedback based on a pattern corresponding to the control signal.
Claims14
A wearable device, comprising:
- a vibration motor;
- a sensor configured to acquire an exercise intensity of a user wearing the wearable device;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- determine whether the exercise intensity is greater than a target set on the wearable device or less than the target;
- control the vibration motor such that the vibration motor outputs a first tactile feedback based on a first vibration pattern in response to the exercise intensity being determined to be greater than the target;
- and
- control the vibration motor such that the vibration motor outputs a second tactile feedback based on a second vibration pattern, different from the first vibration pattern, in response to the exercise intensity being determined to be less than the target.
An operating method of a wearable device, comprising:
- acquiring exercise intensity of a user wearing the wearable device;
- determining whether the exercise intensity is greater than a target set on the wearable device or less than the target;
- controlling a vibration motor such that the vibration motor outputs a first tactile feedback based on a first vibration pattern in response to the exercise intensity being determined to be greater than the target, and
- controlling the vibration motor such that the vibration motor outputs a second tactile feedback based on a second vibration pattern, different from the first vibration pattern, in response to the exercise intensity being determined to be less than the target.
