Abstract
This paper presents cyclist monitoring system that tracks cyclist path and shows the cyclist training condition. Cyclist monitoring system is using NI myRIO-1900 that integrates the sensors and modules and then monitors the cyclist data using Ubidots web interface. In this system, heart rate sensor, magnetic sensor, GPS module and GSM module are connected to NI myRIO-1900. Heart rate sensor was used to calculate the heart rate of cyclist from time to time. Magnetic sensor was attached to the frame of bicycle to calculate the speed of bicycle. GPS module was used to track location of cyclist. GSM modules was used to send SOS message if there has an accident happened on cyclist. At the first, NI myRIO-1900 initialized the state of the GPS signal. After initializing, NI myRIO-1900 received the signal from magnetic sensor and heart rate sensor. After receiving all of the signals from those sensors, the data was uploaded to the GUI in LabVIEW and the web interface that run by Ubidots. The parameters such as speed, heart rate, distance travel and power were displayed on the GUI and Ubidots for cyclist to monitor their condition of body during cycling. The S.O.S button was installed on the bicycle. If the cyclist is in dangerous situation, cyclist can press this button to send the emergency signal to police or the person that is important to them.
Highlights
Cycling is one of five sports that have been in every modern Olympics
The performances of cyclist is recorded through Internet of things (IoT) where the meaningful data such as heart beat, cyclist speed, training path and location can be viewed through IoT platform
Cyclist monitoring system was installed in a bicycle and tested according to a standard procedure
Summary
Cycling is one of five sports that have been in every modern Olympics. It has two different judging elements which are speed and endurance. In 2016, Azizulhasni Awang, a Malaysian cyclist, had created the path for Malaysian in cycling sport while he won the first Olympic bronze medal in Olympics cycling competition. The cycling technology is not well developed in Malaysia. They have no complete bicycle monitoring system to train the cyclists. The monitoring system should include cyclists’ heart rate, cycling speed, distance travelled, and power consumption during training section in order to enhance cyclists’ performance without putting the cyclists in risk of injured [1]. Global Positioning System (GPS) is another useful system that enables cyclists to send their location when there is an emergency happened
