Abstract

In this research, we propose an exercise support robotic system. The system collects human daily life activity data by motion detection as a part of big data, and analyzes it for providing better service. The Normal exercise tools such as pedometer need to be carried while exercising. However, sometimes people forget to take such exercise sensor, when it happened many times, people will feel hard to continue exercise regularly. Thus, the proposed system focuses on user’s behavior when exercise by Kinect, and based on it to recommends user a suitable exercise pattern through an interaction robot. Firstly, this paper discusses the user’s exercise habits and their weariness in exercise, secondly, describes the proposed system approach, the method of detecting human motion, and maintaining exercise motivation. Finally, the experiment and the results are shown.
