Mobile Sensing System for Cycling Power Output Control

Abstract: This paper describes the development of a novel cycling effort control system that contributes to promote the users' physical health and mobility. This system controls the motor assistance level of an electric bicycle in order to ensure that the cyclist's power output remains inside the desired limits, regardless of changes in variables such as the speed of the bicycle or the slope of the terrain. The power output is monitored using a sensor device that provides raw torque and cadence data, whereas a smartphon… Show more

“…However, on long journeys, the bicycle has disadvantages in terms of exhaustion of the cyclist. In [346,347] is presented an effort control system for cycling, which contributes to promote the user's mobility and physical health. In view of the disadvantages of traditional bicycles, the development of electric bicycles has begun, generally known as e-bicycles or e-bikes.…”
