  2. Outline • Introduction • Background • System design • Evaluation • Discussion • Conclusion • Comment

  3. Motivation • Diverse benefits • Especially from a health perspective • People usually care about caloric expenditure • sensor such as • power meter • cadence sensors • and heart rate monitor • but expensive (above $1000) and cumbersome

  4. Motivation cont. • Want to calculate accurate caloric expenditure Without high cost and cumbersome devices • Can we just use a smart phone in pocket to solve the problem?

  5. Challenges • Existing apps do not directly measure the cyclist’s activity • Errors in GPS measurement • Do not consider the slope • Energy consumption

  6. contribution • Pocket sensing approach replace on-bike hardware • Measure cadence less than 2% error • Overall caloric estimation error is 60% smaller than other apps • Reduce energy consumption by 57% • Compare and analyze major elevation service • Find and minimize error on both USGS and Google Map caused by bridge • Show that leveraging detailed map information from USGS and OpenStreetMap can save a significant amount of energy

  7. Outline • Introduction • Background • System design • Evaluation • Discussion • Conclusion • Comment

  8. How to calculate? • Four caloric expenditure estimators • Search Table • Cadence and Speed Sensing • Heart Rate Monitoring • Power Measurement

  9. Search Table • Input : average speed, trip duration, biker’s weight • Low accuracy(do not consider slope)

  10. Cadence and Speed Sensing • Use sensor to measure pedaling speed(RPM) • VO2 : oxygen consumption(liter per minute) • V : bike velocity • S : pedaling speed • Estimate caloric by VO2*5 (Kcal/min) • Drawback : underestimate during uphill trips

  11. Heart Rate Monitoring • Takes heart rate and VO2 max as input and adjusting for age, gender, body mass, and fitness level • VO2 max is a good measure of aerobic condition, requires 12 minutes rush to test • where D is distance (m)

  12. Heart Rate Monitoring cont. • Then, where BPM is the heart rate in beats/min • High accuracy but cumbersome for daily use

  13. Power Measurement • Related to the total amount of work necessary to move the combined mass of the biker and bike from start to finish • Where Vg is a constant ground speed and F is the force generate by the rider along the direction of movement

  14. Power Measurement cont.

  15. Power Measurement cont. Fr: rolling resistance from the bike Fg : component of gravity along the direction of movement Fa : force of aerodynamic drag m : mass of bike and biker Cr : lumped coefficient of rolling resistance S : slope ,where Vw is wind vector : temperature dependent air density Ca : lumped constant for aerodynamic drag

  16. Power Measurement cont. • Then • One can estimate the calories burned/s • Calories burned = P*25%

  17. Outline • Introduction • Background • System design • Evaluation • Discussion • Conclusion • Comment

  18. System design

  19. Data Collection • 15 bike routes located around Jonh Hopkins University’s Homewood campus in Baltimore • All the routes can be complete in 20 mins • Samples GPS, pressure sensor, and heart rate monitor once per sec. Accelerometer 50Hz

  20. Cadence Sensing in the Pocket

  21. Elevation measurement • Digital barometric pressure sensor • where p0 is pressure at sea level • Phone’s GPS receiver(estimate altitude indirectly) • Use latitude and longitude to query GIS • US Geological Service, USGS(3-meter resolution dataset) • Google Maps(19-meter resolution dataset)

  22. Elevation measurement Cont. • Have to minimize GPS error first • Assume that all bike trips take place on either marked paths or roads • Use OpenStreetMap to match the nearest roads and project each GPS coordinate to the nearest point on this road

  23. Bridge Error • Altitude return not correct when biking on bridge • Pressure sensor is more accuracy • USGS and Google Map are fail

  24. Bridge Error cont. • Smooth the curve using a robust local regression method • Use a quadratic polynomial model to fit the elevation data and set the span to be nine data points • Weights for each data point in the span • Where ri is the residual of the i-th data point, MAD = median(|r|)

  25. Calibration of Power Measurement • Lumped coefficients of rolling resistance Cr and aerodynamic drag Ca • Ca : use an empirical reference value 0.26 • Weather condition(temperature, wind speed,wind direction)

  26. Outline • Introduction • Background • System design • Evaluation • Discussion • Conclusion • Comment

  27. Cadence Sensing

  28. Elevation Services

  29. Caloric Expenditure Estimation • Single biker : • Search Table(TAB) • Cadence and Speed Sensing(CAD) • F for fitting, W for weather, S for smoothing

  30. Caloric Expenditure Estimation • Multiple biker :

  31. Multiple biker :

  32. Multiple biker :

  33. Reduce GPS Power Consumtion • Only consider two extreme case: • Reconstruct the missing bike route points by : • Interpolating between the known point • Apply the state-of-art rout reconstruction mechanism called EnAcq algorithm

  34. Reduce GPS Power Consumtion

  35. Outline • Introduction • Background • System design • Evaluation • Discussion • Conclusion • Comment

  36. Discussion • Feasibility • Can implement the cadence sensing and power measurement approaches in a real-time app • Can upload the raw trace to server instead of offline data analysis • Ideally, calibration only needs to be done once when first start to use

  37. Outline • Introduction • Background • System design • Evaluation • Discussion • Conclusion • Comment

  38. Conclusion • On-bike sensor, although expensive, can significantly improve the overall biking experience • This work, get all information by using smart phone only • Extensive result from 20bikers over 70bike trips confirmed that it is accuracy and feasible

  39. Outline • Introduction • Background • System design • Evaluation • Discussion • Conclusion • Comment

  40. Comment • Good architecture • Interesting approaches • Complete analysis and evaluation
