ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND WEARABLE DEVICE FOR PROVIDING PHYSICAL ABILITY MEASUREMENT MODE, AND METHODS OF OPERATING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18339611 Titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND WEARABLE DEVICE FOR PROVIDING PHYSICAL ABILITY MEASUREMENT MODE, AND METHODS OF OPERATING THE SAME'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes an electronic device and/or a wearable device that can measure a person's physical abilities. The electronic device includes a communication module to receive data from the wearable device, a processor to calculate physical ability information based on the data, and a display module to show the information. The processor can calculate a temporal gait index using motion data from an inertial sensor, calculate a spatial gait index using hip joint angle data from an angle sensor, and then use these indices to determine the physical ability information.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device and/or a wearable device for providing a physical ability measurement mode, and operating methods thereof are provided. The electronic device may include a communication module configured to receive sensor data from a wearable device, a processor configured to calculate physical ability information of a user based on the sensor data, and a display module configured to output the physical ability information. The processor may calculate a temporal gait index based on first sensor data including motion information of the user measured by an inertial sensor of the wearable device, calculate a spatial gait index based on second sensor data including a hip joint angle of the user measured by an angle sensor of the wearable device, and calculate the physical ability information based on the temporal gait index and the spatial gait index.
