title: Method of measuring calorie consumption for portable apparatus.
abstract: A measuring device for use in measuring calorie consumption includes a pulse input unit which detects a first heart rate of the user at a first point in an exercise period and a second heart rate of the user at a second point of the exercise period other than the first point, the pulse input unit not detecting a third heart rate between the first and second heart rates; and a controller which receives the detected first and second heart rates and calculates calories consumed using the detected first heart rate, the detected second heart rate, an at rest heart rate of the user, and one or more of an age, gender, weight, height and an at rest heart rate of the user. The measuring device is usable in a portable device, such as a portable digital audio and/or video reproducing apparatus.
