Application of Internet of Things Framework in Physical Education System

Recently, students engage in physical activities to promote physical, mental, and psychological benefits globally. Many schools employ the physical education system as an integral part of their curriculum to develop their students. This paper presents the main benefits of the physical education system. Further, the pillars of physical education in the modern education system are also analyzed. The usage of the Internet of Things (IoT) framework in the physical education system is also being presented in this research. We also propose a new framework called the IoT-based Physical Activity Recognition (IPAR) model. In this model, physical action recognition is done using data from a single tri-axial accelerometer. The recognized action and medical parameters like accelerometer, oxygen level, pulse rate, and temperature are transferred through the cloud to the physical activity instructor's mobile phone. The proposed physical action recognition model produces an overall accuracy of 95.82%. Further, the overall F-score attained by the proposed IPAR algorithm is 97.83%. Moreover, the overall time complexity of the proposed IPAR algorithm was as low as 53.96ms.
