Pedal power: Clemson students try to spin research into smarter workouts

How do you pace yourself when exercising on the treadmill or when riding a bike along a hilly road? We are trying to find the best exercise strategies by constructing and validating individualized models of fatigue and recovery. Several students, collaborators, and test subjects have contributed to this research. We are hoping to be able to provide real-time feedback to a person during exercise to maximize the return on their effort and time.

ACES for Clemson: A $4.3 Million award by US Department of Energy enables deployment of up to 10 Automated Connected Electric Shared (ACES) shuttles by Optimus Ride on Clemson Campus for a period of 3 years, serving students, faculty, and staff. Our team at Clemson will collaborate with University of California at Berkeley and Argonne National Laboratory teams to investigate the impact in a number of areas in particular energy, carbon footprint, and equity as compared to conventional Clemson University Transit and analyze scale up to other campuses and metropolitan areas.
