Title
DJogger: a mobile dynamic music device
Abstract
Maintaining motivation during exercise can be difficult for people engaged in individual workout routines. A common method for maintaining pace and staying motivated is the introduction of a musical soundtrack. The pace of the music and selection of songs influences the workout by suggesting how one should adjust their effort, or help with the timing of a precise regimen. To explore the impact of music on pace and motivation in exercise, we present our work so far on DJogger. DJogger builds a model of a runner's pace and uses this information along with a workout plan to dynamically adjust the musical soundtrack. DJogger contributes a compelling application of HCI to fitness, and explores methods for real world wearable evaluation.
