Characteristics of modern badminton can be summarized as fast, comprehensive and highlighted. In order to organize badminton training scientifically; we must choose convenience and practical methods in monitoring. Heart rate is a reflection of the body and it is a sensitive physiological indicator. It is widely used in sports training thanks to its relevance, timeliness, testability, non-invasiveness and practicality. In this paper, heart rate was recorded during a badminton class. We evaluated the training programs according to the heart rate changes and discussed the application of heart rate monitoring in badminton training.

In the present work, the design and implementation of a device capable of monitor the cardiac pulse by means of photoelectric sensors was carried out, using the oximetry technique and in turn the photometry. Heart rate monitoring has great relevance in the field of health and technology, due to the large number of cardiovascular diseases and millions of deaths worldwide annually. There are currently several heart rate counters with limitations that cannot send your information via internet or GPRS, and cannot be filed on a computer. This prototype was made, based on a microcontroller that receives an infrared sensor signal, once properly conditioned It can be transmitted to a computer. The information obtained can be analyzed and stored by medical specialists, as well as transmitted by Wi-Fi to an application of a remote device providing a service with the use of technologies.

Diagnosing the heart disorders is major challenge because of their short–lasting and intermittent character. The convincing technologies with non–invasive heart rate monitoring systems acquire Electrocardiogram (ECG) have limitations with reference to sensitivity. There are different types of wearable, flexible electrocardiogram sensors that can yield important information about underlying physiological parameters of human for applications related to real time monitoring of health, fitness, and wellness. Sensors with leads are all derived using three electrodes which are used to pick the electrical activity from a different position on the heart muscle. Lead-less sensors are now widely used for acquisition of ECG and related signals for heart rate monitoring which has more advantages compared to other sensors. Henceforth, various sensors are studied to understand their relation with heart rate monitoring. It is inferred that MAX30100 sensor can improve the accuracy of ECG recordings for early detection of cardiovascular diseases.

In this article, we report on a multimethod qualitative study designed to explore the emotional experiences of students in the classroom setting. The purpose of the study was threefold: (1) to explore the correspondence among nonverbal expressions, subjective feelings, and physiological reactivity (heart rate changes) of students’ emotions in the classroom; (2) to examine the relationship between students’ emotions and their competence and value appraisals; and (3) to determine whether task difficulty matters in emotional experiences. We used multiple methods (nonverbal coding scheme, video stimulated recall interview, and heart rate monitoring) to acquire data on emotional experiences of six grade 7 students. Concurrent correspondence analyses of the emotional indices revealed that coherence between emotional response systems, although apparent, is not conclusive. The relationship between appraisals and emotions was evident, but the effect of task difficulty appears to be minimal.

Driving with brady-tachy syndrome is one of the main causes of car accidents. In order to prevent drivers from brady-tachy driving, there is a strong demand for driver monitoring systems. Other than problems in driving attitudes and skills, road accidents are also caused by uncontrollable factors such as medical conditions and drowsiness. These factors can be avoided by having early detection. Therefore, the brady-tachy heart automotive so-called BT-Heartomotive device is developed. This BT-Heartomotive device can detect early signs of drowsiness and health problems by measuring the heart rate of the drivers during driving. The device also could use the data to send an alert to the passengers that they’re in precaution. The device shows a good accuracy in the detection of the heart rate level. The device comprised three main components; wristband, monitor and integrated mobile applications. Heart rate measurement can reveal a lot about the physical conditions of an individual. The BT-Heartomotive device is simple, easy to use and automated.
