Unity integration with NFC and Bluetooth
How to use the NFC sensor
Activate the Internet connection on your device and download the data with NFC.
Identify the position of the NFC sensor on your device (on a smartphone, for example).
Before starting the exercise, place your own device on the equipment and line the sensor on your device up with the NFC logo. In this way, your device
connects to the Technogym cloud and displays the training program and video showing how to do the exercises correctly.
At the end of the exercise the results are saved in the Technogym cloud.
To connect with NFC:
- the internet connection in Unity must be activated;
- the Technogym application must be installed in your personal device

These are exercises performed at a constant heart rate and therefore the heart rate
monitor must be used:
- CPR, constant pulse rate
- Training zone
- Weight loss
On trend
- Hi-low blocks

Advanced exercises
These are exercises in various steps, with preset load variations or variations set by the user:
- Preset proles
- Create your own
Tests
Depending on the type of equipment, there are three test categories available:
- Maximal tests
- Submaximal tests
- Military tests
You may be asked to enter data before starting the exercises and the test.
Age and weight data are not generally needed to start an exercise, they are optional. Entering your age and weight is useful for some calculations; for example:
- if your weight is entered, the calculation of calories burned will be more precise;
- if your age is entered, calculation of your max heart rate will be more precise.
If no user data is entered, the calculations are based on a use who is 30 years old and weighs 70 kg.

In the Excite Step the distance is expressed in oors.
The theoretical max heart rate (HR) is calculated with the formula
220-age, therefore we recommend inserting the age whensetting
an exercise, even though it is not compulsory, for a correct heart
rate display.
W
Always check that your heart rate never goes above
90% of your maximum rate.
