rate zone THR, it helps us to burn more calories even quickly. So below are some research study that related about the information with heart rate.
2.3.1 Heart Rate and SpO2 Level Monitoring System
In this paper, Sornanathan et.al. Discuss about measure and monitor the user’s heart rate and
user’s oxygen saturation level by using a pulse oximeter during exercising. In year 2010, there are a team at RMIT University, Australia doing a
research with monitoring and analyzing physiological signal during fitness activity. In that study, they monitor and measure
the user’s heart rate and oxygen saturation by using a pulse oximeter by implementing CaszOxiSys [13]. CaszOxiSys is a hardware
which is consists of a pair of physiological sensor which is developed by using Light- Emitting Diode LED and photodiode. The CaszOxiSys is using a wireless
communication method which is Bluetooth communication technique to communicate with user laptop or computer to help analyze the physiological signal data and convert
it into the heart rate and the oxygen saturation value for the user during their fitness activity. Besides that, there is a discussion on how to calculate the targeted heart rate
zone depended on target’s gender, resting heart rate maximum heart rate, age and
strength of exercising level for the user during exercising [13]. This information is very important in this study to make sure that the method that we develop in this project
was proven.
2.3.2 Wearable Heart Rate Monitoring System
In addition, there is another study done by Yaofeng Wen et.al. that discuss about a heart rate monitoring system in dynamic movements for example running. This
wearable system was developed by using a wireless heart rate monitor sensor with a single waistline-wear triaxial wireless accelerometer sensor to build out a wearable
system with the purpose to measure the user’s heart rate. This design is depending on
the speedup thresholds and heart rate average value to measure the user’s heart status
