Abstract

From the point of view of u-healthcare, heart rate is so useful for both illness for taking care of patients and wellness for improving the level of health and wellbeing. It is because heart rate is a significant clinical variable for all kinds of diseases as well as an indicator of the intensity of exercise. Recently, a number of various wearable heart rate monitors have been released to check people's status in the body by monitoring their heart rates. In addition, a number of smartphone applications have been released to conveniently monitor the status of exercise by using heart rate monitors. However, all of these applications are limited to a personal usage. In this paper, we will design a system to simultaneously monitor heart rates coming from multiple users in a real-time, and develop an Android application to apply the system. The application mainly features a simultaneous monitoring of heart rates coming from multiple users, allowing to be effectively applied to fitness centers.

u-헬스케어 관점에서 볼 때, 심박수(heart rate)는 아픈 사람의 질환을 관리하는 일리스(illness)나 건강한 사람의 건강을 지속적으로 관리하는 웰니스(wellness) 분야에 모두 유용하게 사용된다. 이는 심박수가 질환의 증상을 판단하거나 운동 부하의 지표로서 모두 사용될 수 있기 때문이다. 최근에 착용형 센서(wearable sensors)를 이용하여 상시적으로 심박수를 모니터링하여 이에 기반하여 현재 몸 상태를 점검해볼 수 있는 다양한 심박계(heart rate monitor)와 이와 연동하여 심박수를 이용한 다양한 운동관리 스마트폰 앱이 개발되어 출시되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 스마트폰 앱은 모두 개인 용도로 제한된다. 논문에서는 여러 사람들의 심박수를 동시에 실시간으로 모니터링할 수 있는 시스템을 설계하고, 이를 적용할 수 있는 안드로이드 앱을 개발한다. 개발된 앱의 주요 기능은 다수 이용자에 대한 동시적 심박수 모니터링으로 피트니스 센터에 효과적으로 적용 가능하다.
