Summary: Cycling is a low-impact aerobic activity that can be used for exercise, transportation, social connection, and competitive sport, as well as for many other fitness and health benefits. The lack of awareness regarding the current health status of cyclists while riding is the main problem addressed by this study. To optimize the advantages of cycling, monitoring and analyzing performance metrics such as heart rate, blood pressure, and speed are crucial. While current cycle computers offer speed, distance, and location, combining physiological measurements like heart rate and blood pressure is still a research gap. This research aimed to design, develop, test, and evaluate a system that provides current health status and location information in a single device using prototyping method. Statistical analysis using a one-tailed independent samples t-test revealed that the prototype exhibited a significantly faster response compared to the standardized instruments. The study involved 10 test data for each sensor. The heart rate sensor (M=1.298, SD=.19332) showed significantly faster compared to the standard device (M=4.822, SD=.68226), t(18)=- 15.715, p<.001. Similarly, the blood pressure sensor (M=31.201, SD=7.54106) demonstrated significantly better scores compared to the standard device (M=45.623, SD=6.25993), t(18)=-4.653, p<.001. Furthermore, the location sensor (M=.991, SD=.09362) exhibited significantly faster compared to the standard device (M=1.301, SD=.31299), t(18)=-3.001, p=.006. However, the distance sensor (M=1.352, SD=.1439) had slightly slower response times than the standard device (M=.854, SD=.07457), t(18)=9.717, p<.001. These results indicate that the prototype's heart rate, blood pressure and location sensors respond faster than the standardized devices, which indicates improved real-time monitoring. The evaluation of the device based on ISO 25010:2011 criteria resulted in an "excellent" rating for functional suitability, performance efficiency, usability, reliability, maintainability, and portability. Additionally, the device received a "very good" rating for security. The overall rating for the device was 4.54, indicating an "excellent" interpretation. This research supports the UN SDG for good health and well- being, which encourages global health and well-being improvement.

Cycling is a low-impact aerobic activity that can be used for exercise, transportation, social
connection, and competitive sport, as well as for many other fitness and health benefits.
The lack of awareness regarding the current health status of cyclists while riding is the
main problem addressed by this study. To optimize the advantages of cycling, monitoring
and analyzing performance metrics such as heart rate, blood pressure, and speed are crucial.
While current cycle computers offer speed, distance, and location, combining
physiological measurements like heart rate and blood pressure is still a research gap. This
research aimed to design, develop, test, and evaluate a system that provides current health
status and location information in a single device using prototyping method. Statistical
analysis using a one-tailed independent samples t-test revealed that the prototype exhibited
a significantly faster response compared to the standardized instruments. The study
involved 10 test data for each sensor. The heart rate sensor (M=1.298, SD=.19332) showed
significantly faster compared to the standard device (M=4.822, SD=.68226), t(18)=-
15.715, p<.001. Similarly, the blood pressure sensor (M=31.201, SD=7.54106)
demonstrated significantly better scores compared to the standard device (M=45.623,
SD=6.25993), t(18)=-4.653, p<.001. Furthermore, the location sensor (M=.991,
SD=.09362) exhibited significantly faster compared to the standard device (M=1.301,
SD=.31299), t(18)=-3.001, p=.006. However, the distance sensor (M=1.352, SD=.1439)
had slightly slower response times than the standard device (M=.854, SD=.07457),
t(18)=9.717, p<.001. These results indicate that the prototype's heart rate, blood pressure
and location sensors respond faster than the standardized devices, which indicates
improved real-time monitoring. The evaluation of the device based on ISO 25010:2011
criteria resulted in an "excellent" rating for functional suitability, performance efficiency,
usability, reliability, maintainability, and portability. Additionally, the device received a
"very good" rating for security. The overall rating for the device was 4.54, indicating an
