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.

20. A sound-output-control device comprising:
-
acquisition means to acquire an anaerobic threshold; reception means to receive an input about exercise intensity; calculation means to calculate a target heart rate range of a user based on the acquired anaerobic threshold and the received input about exercise intensity; tempo-detection means to detect a physical-exercise tempo of physical exercise of the user; detection means to detect a current heart rate of the user; and control means to control a sound output to; output a first sound signal at a first tempo synchronized with the detected physical-exercise tempo over a predetermined time period, and output a second sound signal based on a result of a comparison of the target heart rate range and the current heart rate, such that a second tempo of the second sound signal increases if the current heart rate is less than the target heart rate range, and decreases if the current heart rate is greater than the target heart rate range, so as to lead a heart rate of the user so that the heart rate of the user attains the target heart rate range.
