Transmitting, storing and processing sensor data on a network server for use with gym apparatus

摘要

A system for processing heart rate data measured during exercise comprises a server computer 104 configured to: associate a device identifier of a measurement device 102 with a user account stored in the server computer 104 during registration of the measurement device 102; receive a device identifier and real-time heart rate data from a equipment interface unit 106 over a network connection 110; identify the user's measurement device 102 from the received device identifier; store the received heart rate data to the user account; compute performance data from the received heart rate data during the exercise; and transmit the computed performance data to a equipment interface unit 106 over the network connection 110 during the exercise. The measurement device 102 may comprise at least one sensor and may transmit the heart rate data to the equipment interface unit 106 using a wireless connection.
