Estimation of Cyclist’s Energy Expenditure and Route Navigation / 自行車騎士體能估測與導航

碩士 / 國立中興大學 / 電機工程學系所 / 98 / In the year of energy crisis, people would like to save more energy and do more exercises for health. Cycling is a good leisure activity for modern people. The bicycle itself is suitable as a convenient vehicle for short-range transportation.
In this thesis, we propose a way to evaluate difficulty of the bike routes. We start on bicycle science and exercise physiology and proceed to establish a way of evaluating the index of difficulty for a variety of bike routes. The Android system is used as the platform, with GPS signals to track the planned riding route. After collecting data, we show the results in graphs and tables. By the record of the past route, we can roughly estimate the topography, energy expenditure, etc. On the basis of the results, one can choose the fastest way or the least energy way as desired. Some experiment results are presented for demonstration.
