Stationary exercise machine. In one aspect of the disclosure, a stationary exercise machine may include one or more moveable members configured to be moved by a user, an actuator configured to selectively adjust the speed of, or the amount of resistance on, the one or more moveable members, and one or more processors. The one or more processors may be configured to receive a video, execute the video set to a first difficulty level, receive a second difficulty level, and execute the video reset to the second difficulty level.

A method synchronizes headset output signals of an extended reality headset having a headset receiver, wherein the extended reality headset is worn by a user when the user is operating a piece of exercise equipment having an exercise transmitter to transmit an exercise output signal. A motion sensing detector detects motion of the user, wherein the motion sensing detector includes a motion transmitter to transmit a motion signal. The method begins with receiving the exercise output signal from the exercise transmitter using the headset receiver. The motion signal is then received from the motion transmitter using the headset receiver. The headset output signals are then synchronized as they are emitted by the extended reality headset to match the exercise output and motion signals such that the user can sense the headset output signals congruently with what the user can feel when exercising on the piece of exercise equipment.

An exercise machine includes a processor, a display, a deck, and a belt rotatable about the deck. The machine also includes a sensor operably connected to the processor and configured to detect a performance parameter associated with a belt of the exercise machine. In implementations described herein, the performance parameter may be disregarded when it is determined that a user is not on the belt.

A treadmill may include two separate left and right belts rotating around two sets of rollers, four legs having an adjustable height via air suspension to customize an inclination of the treadmill, a thermoelectric assembly, a fragrance assembly having a rotating fragrance cartridge to emit various smells toward a user of the treadmill, a display on which exercise programs are played, and an attachment module having a dispensing tray on which treats are dispensed. A handle of the treadmill may have a sensor to sense a height and front-rear position, and a belt divider provided between the left and right belts may have position or proximity sensors to sense a left-right position. An inclination of the treadmill may be automatically adjusted according to positions detected by the sensors, and the fragrance assembly, attachment module, and inclination may be automatically operated in accordance with an exercise program played on the display.

A force measurement system and a motion base used therein is disclosed herein. The force measurement system includes a force measurement assembly configured to receive a subject, a motion base for displacing the force measurement assembly, and one or more data processing devices operatively coupled to the force measurement assembly and an actuation system of the motion base. The motion base includes a support structure; a displaceable carriage coupled to the force measurement assembly; and an actuation system, the actuation system including one or more actuators operatively coupling the displaceable carriage to the support structure, the one or more actuators configured to displace the displaceable carriage with the force measurement assembly relative to the support structure, the displaceable carriage being suspended below a portion of the support structure.

A variable-resistance exercise machine with network communication for smart device control and interactive software applications, comprising a network interface that receives input from a user device and provides output to a user device; a plurality of moving surfaces that each provide an independent degree of resistance to movement based on received input, a sensor that detects movement and provides output to a user device based on the movement.

Among other things, a rowing technology includes a first rowing machine having an electromagnetic brake providing a resistance to a rower of the machine in each rowing stroke of a series of rowing strokes of the rower An electronic controller causes the resistance of the electromagnetic brake to vary over each rowing stroke in a profile that emulates resistance to which another rower in a shell on water or on a second rowing machine is subjected in each rowing stroke of a corresponding series of rowing strokes.

A haptic simulation exercise device includes a frame, a base supporting the frame, and an incline motor. The incline motor is configured to move the frame relative to the base to provide haptic simulation during a workout routine. An actuator moves the frame faster than the incline motor to simulate outdoor conditions during a workout routine.

An exercise equipment system with a movable support that is movable in a lateral direction, a sensor adapted to generate a lateral tilt signal, and a processor for generating a left or right turn output signal to a ride simulation in response to tilting of the exercise equipment during use. The exercise equipment may be a cycle mounted to a base. The processor may further filter out small magnitude sensor signals generated through left or right tilting that occurs during cycling, which are not indicative of a turn. The system may also include a display for visualizing a ride simulation of one or more network connected cycle avatars that are individually controlled with a lean-to-steer system.

The present invention relates to a method for providing virtual realistic scenes, a VR device, a system, and a nonvolatile storage medium. Virtual outdoor realistic sports scenes are generated via the VR device while a user is running motion on a treadmill apparatus. In addition, the virtual outdoor realistic sports scenes can be changed based on different motion states.
