I'm pretty sure the bike uses magnets to increase resistance, although I'm not absolutely certain as partner on this project is working on incorporating resistance into data analysis. Another thing I previously failed to mention is that I'm planning on not using any of the data that the bike...
From what I quickly looked up about dynamometers, they seem too big and expensive for what my project is trying to accomplish - a relatively cheap and automatic way to track gym exercise. Also, I'm trying to make this all electronic, so I would have no way of taking in data with a dynamometer.
Hi All, Sorry for the late reply
Thanks for the responses! Allow me to clarify my project a bit:
I'm trying to mount sensors on stationary gym bikes, and use the data from the accelerometer, magnetometer, and gyroscope (9-axis motion) for further analysis. This means that I don't need to worry...
Hi All,
I am working on a project that mounts an accelerometer to the bike pedal, and requires me to calculate the power that the sensor experiences as the bike is being ridden. However, I am having some trouble understanding the forces that the pedal/sensor experiences.
Essentially, I need...
