Abstract

Recently, Internet of Thing has been actively studied in various fields such as wearable devices, smart cars, and smart factories. According to the Gartner report of 2017, the IoT market is expected to grow by more than $ 2 trillion by 2020. In this paper, we aim to develop a VR service model that combines healthcare and virtual reality through IoT technology to improve exercise capacity. In other words, we propose VR service model that can improve the exercise needs of the user by using bicycle which can be easily accessed by people for improving the IoT based athletic performance and incorporating VR service. The proposed model improves the sense of reality through 3D modeling using virtual reality technology, and the user can intuitively confirm the driving record and driving information, and can increase the efficiency of the user’s motion through the target heart rate.
