Abstract
A method and apparatus for extracting an anaerobic threshold are provided. The apparatus may acquire an electromyogram (EMG) signal, and may extract an anaerobic threshold based on a change in the EMG signal. The apparatus may extract a heart rate corresponding to the anaerobic threshold as an anaerobic threshold heart rate.
Claims24
An anaerobic threshold extraction apparatus, comprising:
- an electromyogram (EMG) signal acquirer configured to acquire an EMG signal;
- and
- an anaerobic threshold extractor configured to extract an anaerobic threshold based on a change in the EMG signal, the anaerobic threshold indicating a time when muscle fatigue occurs.
An exercise information providing apparatus, comprising:
- an anaerobic threshold heart rate acquirer configured to acquire an anaerobic threshold heart rate based on a change in an electromyogram (EMG) signal;
- and
- an information providing unit configured to provide information on an exercise load corresponding to the anaerobic threshold heart rate.
An anaerobic threshold heart rate extraction apparatus, comprising:
- an electromyogram (EMG) sensor configured to sense an action potential of a muscle and to acquire an EMG signal;
- a heartbeat sensor configured to sense a heart rate and to acquire a heartbeat signal;
- an anaerobic threshold extractor configured to determine an anaerobic threshold based on a change in the EMG signal, the anaerobic threshold indicating a time when muscle fatigue occurs;
- and
- an anaerobic threshold heart rate extractor configured to extract a heart rate corresponding to the anaerobic threshold as an anaerobic threshold heart rate.
