An Ubi-coach cyclist training system for monitoring and analysing the performance of a cyclist and provides a scalable coaching feedback. During coaching, cyclists are equipped with wireless sensors in order to acquire sports specific parameters like heart rate, blood pressure level, speed and distance covered and report context related information. The Ubi-coach system encourages the cyclist t...
