Trampoline Wiring Loom and Mat Sensor Attachment System

A trampoline comprises multiple movement sensors associated with one or more parts of the trampoline which move when the trampoline is bounced on by a user such as the trampoline mat, and an electrical wiring loom which connects to the movement sensors to a controller or a common connector at another end of the wiring loom. Various sensor mount and wiring loom options are described.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING INDIRECT MOVEMENT FEEDBACK DURING SENSORIMOTOR FUNCTION REHABILITATION AND ENHANCEMENT

A rehabilitation feedback system is used during rehabilitation of one or more body appendages of a user. The system includes four finger tracking elements and a thumb tracking element supported for movement relative to one another so as to allow a user to perform a gripping motion when the elements are coupled to the fingers and thumb of a user. A biasing member provides a resistance force acting to urge each tracking element towards a starting position thereof. A visual barrier is adapted to hide the hand of the user at a first side of the visual barrier from direct visual sight by the user at a second side of the visual barrier. A sensor at the first side of the visual barrier detects movements of the tracking elements and communicates with an indicator element detectable by the user from a second side of the visual barrier.

EXERCISE MACHINE
20230191187 · 2023-06-22 ·

The present disclosure relates to an exercise machine for performing a gymnastic exercise, comprising a first exercise device, in turn comprising at least one first cable, and at least one first handle, coupled to said first cable, to allow a user to perform a gymnastic exercise, and a second exercise device, in turn comprising at least one second cable, and at least one second handle, coupled to said second cable, to allow the user to perform a gymnastic exercise, said exercise machine further comprises a first actuator, connected to said first cable, for exerting a drive or resistant torque on said first cable, a second actuator, connected to said second cable, for exerting a drive or resistant torque on said second cable, and a logic control unit, connected to said first actuator and said second actuator, for adjusting said drive or resistant torque.

SMART GOLF PIN SYSTEM
20220370881 · 2022-11-24 ·

The disclosure herein provides a smart golf pin system and golf GPS device with a mechanism to automatically receive golf hole cup information and display the golf hole information on the golf GPS device. More specifically, the golf GPS device receives data from a plurality of GPS modules installed on the golf pins located throughout the golf course and based on its current location, selects a set of GPS coordinates corresponding to the current hole that the golfer is playing, and displays a distance from the golf GPS device to the actual hole cup location in the current hole, thereby allowing the golfer to fine tune his or her approach accordingly.

Baseball batting trainer
09833675 · 2017-12-05 · ·

A batting swing trainer, including a laser for generating a laser beam, a photodetector spaced apart from the laser so as to define a swing space through which a batter swings a bat and for detecting and sensing disruptions in the laser beam, and a microcontroller. The system further includes a speaker for emitting audible signals in relation to which a batter attempts to time swings and a user interface for a user to input pitch data into the microcontroller. When a batter swings a bat through the swing space so as to disrupt said laser beam, the microcontroller detects and measures changes in the laser beam and calculates bat speed, a ball contact time, and the difference between the contact time and the target time, and then provides to the user a visual indication of the effect of the swing.

STATIONARY EXERCISE EQUIPMENT FOR PHYSICAL TRAINING, MORE PARTICULAR AN EXERCISE BIKE
20170340921 · 2017-11-30 ·

Stationary exercise equipment for physical training, more particularly an exercise bike, comprising a frame with a movement unit which either is to be moved by the exerciser or is itself driven and interacts with the exerciser, one or more sensors, assigned to the movement unit and/or the exerciser, for capturing measured values, and a computer apparatus for establishing one or more items of measurement-value-related information, which are output on a frame-side display apparatus, letterized in that provision is made for a first display apparatus, which is directed at the exerciser for displaying one or more items of information, and in that provision is made for a second display apparatus, which is directed at the opposite side for outputting at least one item of information.

MOVABLE CONSOLE

A console for an exercise device includes a translational mechanism and a rotational mechanism. During operation, a component of the exercise device may prevent rotation or at least partially obscure the user's view of the display. The translational mechanism may move the console out of the way of the component so that the console may be moved and the display visible to the user when performing an exercise activity while dismounted from the exercise device.

PORTABLE RESISTANCE-BASED EXERCISE MACHINE AND SYSTEM

An exercise system that may be rail-less, frameless, and/or portable is described. The exercise system includes a carriage having a plurality of wheels and a stationary platform. The stationary platform is independent of and separate from the carriage, and the stationary platform is freestanding. At least one tension member having a first end is attached to the carriage and a second end is detachably attached to the platform such that the carriage is movable on a horizontal plane parallel to a ground surface while the stationary platform remains in a fixed position.

DELIVERY SYSTEM FOR TARGETED LAUNCHING OF SPORTS PROJECTILE
20170340943 · 2017-11-30 ·

A sports projectile delivery system may control the operation of a launcher to cause an American football or other sports projectile to be delivered to a target location on a field. In some aspects, the system can track player movements on the field, e.g., through the use of a tracking device mounted on the player, enabling the ball etc. to be launched to a player in anticipation of where the player will go. The system may include additional customization and/or logging options, e.g., permitting a player to designate a body position (e.g., above the head or near the knees) for delivery of the ball, designate a speed or hang time for delivery, or provide player data and analytics to an online or otherwise connected database.

Elliptical exercise machine
11673019 · 2023-06-13 · ·

An exercise machine may include a reciprocating linkage that supports one or more pedals configured to move in a closed loop (e.g., elliptical) path as a user exercises with the machine. The exercise machine may be adjustable to vary a characteristic of the exercise provided by the machine, for example by changing an incline of a rail supporting the reciprocating linkage, and thus an angle of the closed loop path. The exercise machine may vary the incline with a lift mechanism operatively associated with the front upright frame of the machine, which may also support a resistance assembly, all in a compact form factor that may be more aesthetically pleasing and practical for relatively smaller exercise spaces.
