Calibration of performance monitor
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of calibrating a user-specific performance monitor, comprising:
- forming an association between an activity level of a user and a performance parameter value proportional to heart rate information of the user by a computing device, wherein the activity level represents the amount of physical activity determined from physical movements generated by the user, the activity level and heart rate information having been measured in a user-specific performance monitor, and the heart rate information being responsive to the activity level; and
forming an association between the activity level and performance parameter value by associating the activity level with a performance parameter value occurring later than the activity level by an assumed or defined time interval, thereby taking into account the delay between the activity level and heart rate information.

Abstract
In the solution of the invention, an association is formed between activity information characterizing the activity level of a user and a performance parameter value proportional to the heart rate information of the user, the activity information and heart rate information having been measured in a user-specific performance monitor, and the heart rate information being responsive to the activity level.

5. A user-specific performance monitor, comprising:
-
performance parameter determination means configured to determine a performance parameter value proportional to heart rate information of a user; activity measurement means for measuring an activity level of the user, wherein the activity level represents physical activity expressed by physical movements generated by the user; and association means for forming an association between the activity level and performance parameter value proportional to the heart rate information that is responsive to the activity level, wherein the association means is configured to form the association between the activity level and performance parameter value by associating the activity level with a performance parameter value occurring later than the activity level by an assumed or defined time interval, thereby taking into account the delay between the activity level and heart rate information. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8)

9. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising encoded instructions for executing a computer process in a digital processor, the computer process being suitable for calibrating a user-specific performance monitor by:
-
forming an association between an activity level of a user and a performance parameter value proportional to the heart rate information of the user, wherein the activity level represents physical activity expressed by physical movements generated by the user, the activity level and heart rate information having been measured in the user-specific performance monitor, and the heart rate information being responsive to the activity level; and forming the association between the activity level and the performance parameter value by associating the activity level with a performance parameter value occurring later than the activity level by an assumed or defined time interval, thereby taking into account the delay between the activity level and heart rate information. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12)
