Abstract
A simple heart rate calculation process is incorporated into an exercise machine. The user controls the process by counting his/her own pulse. With the exercise machine temporarily stopped, the user finds his/her pulse with one hand, and pushes a start/stop button with the other hand. The button is pushed to stop on a count of one, and then pushed to stop on a predetermined count, e.g., 10. An embedded device automatically calculates and displays the user's heart rate.
