First Claim
1. A mobile information processing apparatus comprising:
- a processor configured to receive a heart rate of a user from a sensor and output an audio signal,wherein the processor is configured to change an original tempo of the audio signal to a current tempo based on a comparison between the heart rate and a target heart rate range,wherein the processor is configured to determine the target heart rate range based on at least an exercise intensity specified by the user and an anaerobic threshold of the user, the target heart rate range thereby being a user-defined target heart rate range,wherein the mobile information processing apparatus is configured to be worn by the user, andwherein the processor is configured to change the current tempo of the audio signal according to a change of the comparison to lead the heart rate of the user to the user-defined target heart rate range,wherein the processor is configured to change the current tempo by selecting a track from a database of tracks and associated tempos based on a target tempo, and the processor is configured to output the audio signal to play the selected track,wherein the processor is configured to estimate the anaerobic threshold at least in part by gradually increasing a tempo of the audio signal while the heart rate is detected.

Abstract
A sound-output-control device including an acquisition unit which acquires an anaerobic threshold, a reception unit which receives an input about exercise intensity, a calculation unit which calculates a value indicating a target heart rate of a user on the basis of the acquired anaerobic threshold and the received exercise-intensity input, a detection unit which detects a value indicating the current tempo of a physical exercise done by the user, and a control unit that controls a sound output on the basis of a result of a comparison of the target heart-rate value calculated by the calculation unit and the current physical-exercise-tempo value detected by the detection unit, so as to lead a heart rate of the user so that the heart rate of the user attains the target heart rate is provided.
