Abstract
Jump rope has two motions. It starts as hand motion and ends as jump motion. Therefore, two motions should be considered together to detect rotations accurately. But previous researches only consider one of the two motions as in push-up, sit-up, lift dumbbells etc, which results in inaccurate detection of rotations. In this paper, detection of rotation in jump rope using two motions through 6-axis accelerometer gyro sensor is proposed. Jump motion is detected using accelerometer sensor and hand motion is detected using gyro sensor. Also start point and end point of jump rope is detected using magnitude and standard deviation of accelerometer and gyro sensor values. The count of rotation is detected using y-axis of gyro sensor value. Y-axis of gyro sensor value indicate hand motion of jump rope motion. The usefulness of the proposed method is confirmed through experimental results.
