  • Method for measuring exercise
    Patent number: 11464449
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for measuring an exercise, in which method the electrical signals caused by active muscles are measured with a measuring device and response is given from the physical performance with a perceivable signal. In the method in accordance with the invention by measuring and analyzing EMG activities of muscles or EMG activities of muscles and movements of the body quantities describing the physical performance and/or the result of the physical performance are calculated or evaluated.
    Type: Grant

  • Calibration method and apparatus for a mobile device
    Patent number: 7600426
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a mobile device. In accordance with the method—pressure data is measured, the pressure data is used as atmospheric-pressure data and/or for the definition of altitude, and the magnetic field of the Earth is measured by a magnetic sensor (22). In accordance with the invention consecutive measurements are performed using the magnetic sensor (22) and the consecutive measurement results are compared, and on the basis of the comparison the mobile device (20) is commanded to either atmospheric-pressure measurement or altitude measurement.
