Abstract

A fitness course guidance system for integrating identification capability into a personal device includes: a plurality of fitness devices each including a controller, an identifying device, and a first wireless interface; at least one personal device including a course guidance program, at least one fitness course, a tag, and a second wireless interface, being positioned on one of the fitness devices to allow the fitness device to identify the at least one personal device, executing the course guidance program to use the at least one fitness course, issuing an instruction to a user, and receiving the use status and related data of the fitness devices; and a server electrically connected to the controller of the fitness devices and the at least one personal device in a wired or wireless manner and adapted to collect the use status of the fitness devices.

1 . A fitness course guidance system for integrating identification capability into a personal device, the fitness course guidance system comprising:
 a plurality of fitness devices each comprising a controller, an identifying device, and a first wireless interface, the controller being electrically connected to the identifying device and the first wireless interface and adapted to send out a use status and related data of the fitness devices;   at least one personal device carried by a user, being capable of computing and processing, comprising a course guidance program, at least one fitness course, a tag, and a second wireless interface, being positioned on one of the fitness devices to allow the identifying device of the fitness device to identify the tag, electrically connected to the fitness device via the second wireless interface and the first wireless interface of the fitness device, issuing the user an instruction based on the at least one fitness course according to an availability of the fitness devices, and receiving the use status and related data from the controller of the fitness devices, so as to execute the course guidance program and thereby determinate a state of execution of the fitness course; and   a server electrically connected to the controller of the fitness devices and the at least one personal device in a wired or wireless manner and adapted to collect the use status of the fitness devices.   
     
     
         2 . The fitness course guidance system of  claim 1 , wherein the identifying device is spaced apart from the tag by a distance of less than 10 cm while identifying the tag. 
     
     
         3 . The fitness course guidance system of  claim 2 , wherein the identifying device and the tag are radio frequency identification (RFID) devices. 
     
     
         4 . The fitness course guidance system of  claim 2 , wherein the identifying device and the tag are near field communication (NFC) devices. 
     
     
         5 . The fitness course guidance system of  claim 1 , wherein the first wireless interface and the second wireless interface are Bluetooth interfaces or radio frequency interfaces. 
     
     
         6 . The fitness course guidance system of  claim 1 , wherein the fitness devices each further comprise an identification platform for holding the at least one personal device and then identifying the at least one personal device. 
     
     
         7 . The fitness course guidance system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one personal device is a smartphone or a personal digital assistant (PDA). 
     
     
         8 . The fitness course guidance system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one said personal device is stored therein with a plurality of multimedia files, and the fitness devices each comprise a playing device, wherein the at least one personal device is positioned on one of the fitness devices and sends the multimedia files to the fitness device via the two wireless interfaces, wherein, after the fitness device has received the multimedia files, the playing device plays the multimedia files.
