Provided are a pedal, a riding device and a data generation method, wherein same relate to the field of smart homes. The pedal comprises: a pedal body; a detection assembly arranged in the pedal body, wherein the detection assembly is used for detecting a rotation signal of the pedal body, and the rotation signal is a signal generated when the pedal body rotates; and a processing chip arranged in the pedal body, wherein the processing chip is electrically connected to the detection assembly and is used for generating riding data according to the rotation signal. The present invention solves the problem of a relatively cumbersome data collection process caused by riding data needing to be collected by means of an additional wearable device, thereby achieving the effect where a pedal can directly collect and generate riding data during a riding process without needing to use an additional device for collection, optimizing the collection method for the riding data, and improving the utilization rate of the pedal.
