Device for training human's motor skills and in particular the adaptation to instability, the strength and mobility
A device that trains a person's motor skills, including the adaptation to instability, strength and mobility, includes a dome having preset characteristics of elastic deformability and a wall of preset thickness. One or more separating walls are arranged in an inner recess of the dome and form ribs that provide a support to the dome at its base, defining one or more compartments within the recess.
Balance Tilt Board
In some aspects, the techniques described herein relate to an apparatus including: at least one foot board settable to one or more predetermined inclination angles; at least one rotating base rotatable through one or more predetermined ranges of rotation; and a stationary base, wherein the stationary base supports the at least one foot board and the at least one rotating base such that a user placing a foot on the at least one foot board can flex or extend the foot at the one or more predetermined inclination angles and can pronate or supinate the foot through the one or more predetermined ranges of rotation.
Ball chair
A ball chair may comprise a chair frame, a ball body and an adjusting unit. The chair frame has a connecting base and a legs base, and a supporting column formed therebetween is configured to achieve a telescopic action thereby adjusting a height of the ball chair. The connecting base is formed in a concave shape to form a housing space therein, and an annular frame is formed at an upper end of the connecting base. The ball body is configured to be coupled on the connecting base of the chair frame, and the annular frame is configured to couple with an outer periphery of the ball body thereby limiting a position thereof. As a result, the ball chair is suitable for different statures of users and enables the users to sit thereon for training or rehabilitation.
Training Device for Motorized Board
A training device for a motorized board comprising an elongated board that can have a top surface and a bottom surface with opposing end sections having a first plane and a second plane wherein the first plane is substantially longer than the second plane. The board can have a thickness that can extend between the top surface and the bottom surface. The top surface can have a first section, a second section and a third section. The first section and the third section can be substantially the same shape and the second section can be substantially larger than the first and third sections, wherein the second section can be the size of a wheel. The bottom surface can have a pivot pad wherein the pivot pad can have a thickness that extends vertically from the bottom surface.
MULTI-MODAL PORTABLE EXERCISE EQUIPMENT
The multi-modal portable exercise equipment of the present invention includes matable first and second generally hemispheric exercise half bodies that in mated condition provide a generally spherical exercise ball that in one exercise modality of the multi-modal portable exercise equipment of the present invention is attached to external exercise equipment such as the cable of an exercise machine or resistance band and can be used by a subject for strength and other allied training exercises and that in another exercise modality thereof the first and second generally hemispheric exercise half bodies in unmated condition each provide a freestanding generally hemispheric exercise half body and can be used by a subject for balance and other allied training exercises. The first and second generally hemispheric exercise half bodies in unmated condition are each constituted of a plurality of spherical caps in nested relation that may be unpacked and used by a subject for balance and other allied training exercises of low, medium and high use difficulty.
Vibrotactile feedback arrangement
Bilateral vestibular loss is a chronic condition of which the causes can be ototoxic, infectious, traumatic, autoimmune or congenital. An object of the invention is to improve the effectiveness of a vibrotactile feedback arrangement. The current invention provides a vibrotactile feedback arrangement for use arranged to a human body, comprising: a sensor arranged for sensing a current attitude of the human body relative to the environment; tactile actuators arranged for allowing the human body to perceive an attitude deviation; an elongated carrier for holding the tactile actuators and the sensor in tactile communication with the human body and for holding the tactile actuators and the sensor substantially fixed relative to the human body; and a processing unit configured for: receiving the current attitude from the sensor; determining the attitude deviation based on comparing a desired attitude of the human body with the current attitude; and transmitting an actuation signal to one or more of the tactile actuators based on the attitude deviation; wherein the tactile actuators are arranged to the carrier such that, when the carrier is used, the tactile actuators are arranged substantially in a reference plane; wherein the reference plane is functionally perpendicular to a central axis of a torso of the human body and the reference plane intersects the torso to define a circumference, wherein the tactile actuators are arranged to the circumference; and wherein the carrier comprises stretchable material such that the relative distance between the tactile actuators and/or between the tactile actuators and the sensor is maintained independent of the length of the circumference.
Fitness device for exercise and balance development
A fitness device is provided, the fitness device comprising: an elastomeric member having an interior cavity, the elastomeric member comprising a cylindrical portion extending between a first hemispherical endcap and a second hemispherical endcap, wherein a surface of the elastomeric member defines an aperture positioned between the interior cavity and an exterior of the elastomeric member; and a structured surface positioned on the surface of the elastomeric member over the aperture, the structured surface extending into the interior cavity of the elastomeric member.
Balance Station
A balance station for practicing balancing exercises made up of a platform, four legs, side rails, and a front rail. Different training exercises can be implemented by using different face plates for the base platform. The balance station provides a safe environment for stability challenge individuals to practice balance exercises.
Playground Activity Measures
A system and method of this disclosure allows tagging a real world object (a playground) to virtual gameplay data. Therefore, an anatomy of the activities happening at each playground can be obtained, using a measurement system that is oriented around the playground. In embodiments, playground events are amalgamated into sessions, the location of the session being a centroid of the individual event locations. A collection of sessions for each playground is stored in a database. Where the session location is within a predetermined radius of a playground location, the session is assigned to the playground. This allows for reports to be generated that provide insights for a given playground such as but not limited to equipment utilization, popular times of day, popular days of the week, weather trends, popular pieces of equipment, and exercise profiles.
EXERCISE APPARATUS
This invention relates to an exercise apparatus and more specifically, the Rogo™ exercise device comprising: a board; a box; and a hinge, said hinge removably connects said board and said box.
