DEVICE TO ASSIST IN THE PRACTICE OF A PHYSICAL ACTIVITY SESSION, AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY APPARATUS PROVIDED WITH SUCH A DEVICE
First Claim
1. Device (1) for assisting in the practice of a physical activity session by a subject, having electronic means for determining the intensity of the physical exertion, in real time, to be provided by said subject during said session, implementing a control law having, as an output, a parameter corresponding to said physical exertion to be provided (EPF), and, as input signals, data collected during the exertion, essentially consisting of:
- the measurement of said heart rate (FC) of said subject,the measurement of said respiratory rate (FR) of said subject,one or a plurality of indices (EVAx) of strenuousness of the exertion perceived by said subject, to be specified by said subject during the exertion,and wherein the control law is also dependent on programmed thresholds, not to be exceeded, essentially consisting of;
the maximum heart rate FCM,the maximum respiratory rate FRM,the maximum value(s) EVAxM associated with said index/indices of strenuousness of the exertion.

Abstract
The invention relates to a device to assist in the practice of a physical activity session by an person. The device has an electronic means for determining the real-time physical effort to be provided by said person during said session, implementing a control law having, as an output, a parameter that corresponds to the physical effort to be provided (EPF) and, as an input, data collected while the force is being applied, essentially comprising: the measurement of the heart rate (FC) of said person; the measurement of the respiratory rate (FR) of said person; and one or more indices (EVA) of strenuousness of the effort as perceived by said person, to be specified by said person during the effort, and in which said control law depends essentially on respective programmed thresholds which should not be exceeded, essentially comprising: the maximum heart rate (FCM), the maximum respiratory rate (FRM), and the maximum value or values associated with said index or indices of strenuousness.
