Abstract

The present invention related to a mobile device and, more specifically, to a mobile device for communicating with an electronic device and a method for generating an action plan via the mobile device.

Claims

1. A mobile device for communicating with an electronic device, comprising:

a storing module for storing a user data;

a receiving module for receiving a reference parameter from the electronic device; and

a planning module, electrically connected to the storing module and the receiving module, for generating an action plan according to the user data and the reference parameter;

wherein after the electronic device is used, a used parameter is generated by the electronic device and transmitted to the receiving module, the action plan is updated by the planning module according to the used parameter.

2. The mobile device of claim 1, wherein the used parameter is a using time of the electronic device.

3. The mobile device of claim 1, wherein the action plan comprises a suggested way for using the electronic device.

4. The mobile device of claim 1, wherein after the reference parameter is received by the receiving module, the reference parameter is stored in the storing module, the electronic device has a plurality of using modes, when one of the using modes selected, the planning module updates the reference parameter stored in the storing module.

5. The mobile device of claim 1, wherein the user data contains at least one of an age, a height, a weight, an average heartbeat frequency, an average blood pressure value, and a history of a user.

6. The mobile device of claim 1, wherein the action plan comprises a plurality of mode options related to the electronic device and a plurality of using ways corresponding to the mode options.

7. The mobile device of claim 1, further comprising:

a transmitting module, electrically connected to the planning module, for transmitting the action plan to the electronic device.

8. The mobile device of claim 1, further comprising:

a database, stored in the storing module, storing a plurality of default action plans, the action plan being selected from the plurality of default action plans according to the user data and the reference parameter.

9. The mobile device of claim 8, wherein the database is updated by connecting to a server through the internet.

10. The mobile device of claim 1, wherein the electronic device is an exercising apparatus, after the user uses the exercising apparatus, the exercising apparatus generates an after-exercising data containing at least one of an exercising time, a heartbeat frequency, a blood pressure value, and a consumed calorie capacity of the user.

11. The mobile device of claim 10, further comprising:

a display module, electrically connected to the planning module, for displaying an analyzing result corresponding to the after-exercising data.

12. A method of generating an action plan applied to a mobile device, the method comprising the steps of:

storing a user data in the mobile device;

receiving a reference parameter from an electronic device to the mobile device;

generating the action plan according to the user data and the reference parameter;

generating a used parameter after using the electronic device; and

updating the action plan according to the used parameter.

13. The method of claim 12, wherein the electronic device has a plurality of using modes, the method further comprising the steps of:

storing the reference parameter in the mobile device; and

updating the reference parameter stored in the mobile device when one of the plurality of using modes of the electronic device is selected.

14. The method of claim 12, wherein the user data contains at least one of an age, a height, a weight, an average heartbeat frequency, an average blood pressure value, and a history of a user.

15. The method of claim 12, wherein the action plan comprises a plurality of mode options related to the electronic device and a plurality of using time corresponding to the mode options.

16. The method of claim 12, wherein a plurality of default action plans are stored in the mobile device, the method further comprising the step of:

selecting the action plan from the plurality of default action plans according to the user data and the reference parameter.

17. The method of claim 16, wherein the mobile device updates the plurality of default action plans by connecting to a server through the internet.

18. The method of claim 12, wherein the electronic device is an exercising apparatus, the method further comprising the step of:

generating an after-exercising data after the user uses the exercising apparatus.

19. The method of claim 18, further comprising the steps of:

receiving the after-exercising data from the exercising apparatus to the mobile device; and

displaying an analyzing result corresponding to after-exercising data.
