Noncontact Evaluation Method for Autonomic Nervous System Activity during Exercise Using RGB Camera.
Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc
July 2023
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the relationship between autonomic nervous system activity, specifically capillary function, and exercise efficiency through a noncontact measurement method using a standard web camera.
- The method analyzes changes in color values (green and blue) of the face to calculate the G/B ratio, which indicates capillary contraction and dilation during exercise.
- Results showed that as heart rate increased, the G/B ratio decreased, signifying capillary dilation due to sympathetic nervous system dominance during exercise, while the ratio increased after exercise, indicating capillary constriction from parasympathetic nervous system activity.
Movement Coordination during Forward and Backward Rope Jumping: A Relative Phase Study.
Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc
November 2021
Rope jumping is a popular training method in athletic programs, fitness, and physical education. Forward and backward rope jumping has been used for evaluating athlete's performance. Both of these two jumps require coordination in the upper and lower limbs.
