Exercise amount measuring device capable of displaying the amount of exercise to be performed further
First Claim
1. An exercise amount measuring device comprising an acceleration sensor for detecting a body movement of a living body, means for calculating an exercise amount based on a detection signal of the acceleration sensor, a display section for displaying the calculated exercise amount,means for calculating a life activity index based on a measured exercise amount;
- andmeans for causing the display means to display the calculated life activity index, wherein the life activity index is calculated according to the following formula;
0.9×
(total energy metabolism per day÷
basal metabolism).

Abstract
Total consumed calories are indicated in an upper portion of a display. A life activity intensity of each of the past seven days and an average life activity intensity over the same period are indicated by a bar graph in a lower portion of the display. The life activity intensity is classified into rank I (light), rank II (medium), and rank III (a little heavy). A total exercise amount (i.e., total consumed calories) and a life activity intensity are calculated and automatically displayed at the end of a day.
