Enhancing the accuracy of fitness competitions results validation via designing and implementing of Fitness Auto Referee (FAR) evaluation system based on Internet of Things (IOT)

Internet of Things (IOT) has its importance in the field of data exchange and control, makes great effects when applied in the fitness field. Applying IOT technology in fitness field could introduce an auto judge for fitness competitions by counting the repetitions of any exercise accurately, and exchange data with an accurate preprepared data base. In this paper a novel fitness auto referee (FAR) system has been presented. This system could be emerged as a specialized groundbreaking assistive technology to enhance the accuracy of fitness competitions results validation. The algorithm of the presented system relies on the distinctive physical properties, gender, and age of each player as inputs. The golden ratio or the golden number 1.618 has been employed in this system to locate sensors accurately, also to count the correct repetitions as function of the player tall. This system has the ability to deal with multiplayers simultaneously indoor or outdoor. Last but not least it provides a flexible means to carry out exercises with different groups (males/females - special forces/combat forces - adults/children - athletes/nonathletes. etc.) accurately within a short period of time.
