Display Mode Selection

Abstract

An apparatus, a method, and a computer program are disclosed. The apparatus comprises a processor. The processor is configured to obtain exercise data of a user from a measurement sensor, to identify a present exercise phase of an exercise from among a plurality of exercise phases on the basis of the exercise data, and to select a relevant display mode from among a plurality of display modes on the basis of the present exercise phase and a mapping between the display modes and the exercise phases, wherein the relevant display mode defines a set of display elements associated with the present exercise phase to be displayed to the user.

1 . An apparatus comprising a processor configured
 to obtain exercise data of a user from a measurement sensor,   to identify a present exercise phase of an exercise from among a plurality of exercise phases on the basis of the exercise data, and   to select a relevant display mode from among a plurality of display modes on the basis of the present exercise phase and a mapping between the display modes and the exercise phases, wherein the relevant display mode defines a set of display elements associated with the present exercise phase to be displayed to the user, the exercise data comprising training parameters relating to at least one of the user's actions and environment parameters relating to the environment of the user.   
   
   
       2 . (canceled) 
   
   
       3 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the exercise phase comprises at least one of an interval training period, a recovery period, an uphill phase, a downhill phase, a warm-up phase, a head-wind phase, a side-wind phase, a hydration break, and crossroads. 
   
   
       4 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to recognize a change in the exercise data, to mark the recognized change as a change point in order to distinguish between successive exercise phases, and to store the change point. 
   
   
       5 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to start a predetermined measurement corresponding to the present exercise phase. 
   
   
       6 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the display mode comprises at least two display elements selected from a group comprising: heart rate, heart rate variability, speed, cadence, body temperature, hydration level, breathing characteristics, pedalling balance, pedalling power, altitude, ascent, descent, pressure, ambient temperature, location, and wind characteristics. 
   
   
       7 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the apparatus is at least one of a mobile apparatus, a cycling computer, a running computer, a multi-sport computer, an activity monitor, and a subscriber terminal of a radio system. 
   
   
       8 . A method comprising:
 obtaining exercise data of a user from a sensor;   identifying, using a processor, a present exercise phase of an exercise from among a plurality of exercise phases on the basis of the exercise data; and   selecting, using the processor, a relevant display mode from among a plurality of display modes on the basis of the present exercise phase and a mapping between the display modes and the exercise phases, wherein the relevant display mode defines a set of display elements associated with the present exercise phase to be displayed to the user, the exercise data comprising training parameters relating to at least one of the user's actions and environment parameters relating to the environment of the user.   
   
   
       9 . (canceled) 
   
   
       10 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein the exercise phase comprises at least one of an interval training period, a recovery period, an uphill phase, a downhill phase, a warm-up phase, a head-wind phase, a side-wind phase, a hydration break, and crossroads. 
   
   
       11 . The method of  claim 8 , further comprising:
 recognizing, using the processor, a change in the exercise data;   marking, using the processor, the recognized change as a change point in order to distinguish between successive exercise phases; and   storing, using the processor, the change point.   
   
   
       12 . The method of  claim 8 , further comprising:
 starting, using the processor, a predetermined measurement corresponding to the present exercise phase.   
   
   
       13 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein the display mode comprises at least two display elements selected from a group comprising: heart rate, heart rate variability, speed, cadence, body temperature, hydration level, breathing characteristics, pedalling balance, pedalling power, altitude, ascent, descent, pressure, ambient temperature, location, and wind characteristics.
