Smart Sports Outward Bound Training Assistant System Based on WSNs

The outward-bound training has been a popular manner to exercise in daily life. However, there lacks an intelligent assistant system to monitor the real-time status of users to avoid accidents during training. In order to fill this gap, this paper established an intelligent system to monitor fatigue status during outward-bound training by using surface electromyography (sEMG) signals. The system consists of three parts: a wearable device, edge node, and cloud server. First, the wearable device collects sEMG signals. Second, the edge node processes the collected sEMG signals and sends the sEMG signal features to the cloud server. Finally, the cloud server returns the results to edge node according to a stored classification model that learnt from massive historical sEMG signals. The experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed system.
