An After Exercise Exhilaration Index Using Acceleration of Pulse for Emotional Fitness

Abstract

In this report, the authors propose a comfort index CP using the acceleration plethysmograph for Emotional Fitness, which is an exercise for mental health cares. The CP is defined by a multiplication of 'coherence' between stable and after exercise acceleration plethysmograms and 'power spectrum' of the after exercise acceleration plethysmograms. First of all, we run for ten minutes by using the treadmill, and measure the acceleration plethysmogram, and the two dimension mood scale (TDMS) before and after exercise, which express human comfort. We propose the value in which multiply the power spectrum by coherence from acceleration pulse wave as refreshment index (CP). Next, we experiment on Emotional Fitness, and shows correlation between CP and index of comfort using TDMS(index of comfort after exercise). Through result of experiment, we transform CP into LF / HF. The change after exercise is different, but we think that all examinee get refreshment. Therefore we think that CP proved effectiveness as the refreshing index. Finally, we confirm that CP expresses human comfort after exercise.
