Abstract

Cycling has become part and parcel of the urban world. It is mainly used because it is one of the cheapest modes of transport and also used exercise equipment to burn calories. Here we are proposing an idea to make cycling a joyride using GPS and a heartbeat sensor. The person will plan the route using google maps, based upon which the motors attached to the cyclist arms will vibrate and guide the person. It’s a common habit for cyclists to listen to music while cycling which will enable them to overcome tiredness. The speed of the cycle measured by an accelerometer and the heartbeat rate which is measured by a heartbeat sensor will control the music play rate.
