Project Description
Accurately counting repetitions during gym exercises such as push-ups, pull-ups, and squats is difficult and distracting. This Smart Gym Exercise Counter automates repetition counting using sensors and displays real-time results on a Nextion touchscreen.
The system detects body movement patterns and translates them into repetition counts while providing a clean and interactive user interface for athletes and trainers.
The Challenge
Manual repetition counting leads to errors Gym users lose focus when counting Lack of affordable digital repetition counters
The Process
Movement patterns were analyzed for different exercises Sensors were calibrated for reliable distance detection A custom Nextion UI was designed Arduino logic filtered false triggers
The Solution
An Arduino-based system that automatically detects repetitions and displays counts clearly on a touchscreen, reducing mental load during workouts.
The Results
The system improves workout accuracy, training efficiency, and user focus while providing a professional gym-grade experience.
