ADAPTIVE TENNIS BALL MACHINE
A smart ball-machine uses artificial intelligence to train a player or to play with a player. For example, the ball-machine can adjust the tennis ball speed, topspin, bounce according to the player's successful ball return rate. The ball-machine can be preconfigured with a profile of a player. For example, the ball-machine may download a complete profile of a tennis player from a game recording, or may download a file with a customized profile of a player to train a player using the ball-machine. The ball-machine is equipped with a plurality of wheels, motors, and shafts to provide a fully customizable launch of one or more balls. For example, the ball can be launched from the machine from one side of a tennis court to another side of a tennis court with a variety of speeds, trajectories, topspin, bounce etc.
Exercising Apparatus
An exercise apparatus includes flexible elongated members configured for attachment to shoes of a user. Motor assemblies are disposed between the elongated members and the shoes, respectively, and cause the flexible elongated members to oscillate. Rotational drums attached to the flexible elongated members and are configured to rotate the flexible elongated members while the elongated members oscillate.
MODULAR METRICS BAR FOR AN EXERCISE MACHINE
A system includes an exercise machine and a computing device coupled to the exercise machine. The computing device presents a metrics bar within a graphical user interface in an initial state, detects a start of a first workout experience by a user on the exercise machine, retrieve a first set of metrics from stored user preferences data based on a workout experience type, workout type, and exercise machine type of the first workout experience, and displays the first set of metrics in a display area of the metrics bar during the first workout experience. The computing device detects a start of a second workout experience, determines a second set of metrics from the stored user preferences data based on a workout experience type, workout type, and exercise machine type of the second workout experience, and displays the second set of metrics in the metrics bar during the second workout experience.
System and method for evaluation, detection, conditioning, and treatment of neurological functioning and conditions
A system and method for evaluation, detection, conditioning, and treatment of neurological functioning and conditions which uses data obtained while a person is engaged in simultaneously in a range of primary physical tasks combined with defined types of associative activity, such as listening, reading, speaking, mathematics, logic puzzles, navigation of a virtual environment, recall of past stimuli, etc. The data from the physical and associative activities are combined to generate a composite functioning score visualization indicating the relative functioning of areas aspects of neurological functioning; including those in which deficiencies may be present, which are early indicators of possible neurological conditions. Through algorithmic recommendations combined with expert and user input, a conditioning regimen targeting neurological aspects of interest paired with periodic testing allows the user to track their progress in these areas over time.
DIFFERENTIAL AIR PRESSURE EXERCISE AND THERAPEUTIC DEVICE
An offloading system for use with a treadmill includes an air chamber configured to be selectively inflated between a deflated condition and an inflated, operating condition, a user seal coupled to the air chamber and adapted to receive a user so that, in the operating condition, at least a portion of the user is received in the user seal and positioned within the air chamber, a pump operable to inflate the air chamber, and a controller configured to determine an occurrence of a loss of pressure in the air chamber and, in response to the occurrence, cause a reduction of speed of a running belt of the treadmill.
LIGHTING SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USING SAME WITH EXERCISE AND REHABILITATION EQUIPMENT
A treadmill includes a frame and a running belt coupled to the frame. The running belt is configured to rotate relative to the frame. The treadmill includes at least one sensor configured to collect information regarding a rotation of the running belt and a use of the treadmill by a user of the treadmill. The treadmill also includes a light source coupled to the frame and configured to emit a light at least partly away from a front of the treadmill to at least partly illuminate a rear of the treadmill.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR ASSISTED FITNESS
The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a apparatus and method for assisted fitness, the method may be performed based on the fitness apparatus. The method may include the following operations. At least one user using the fitness apparatus may be identified based on collected data, and an identification result may be determined, a control instruction may be obtained, and in response to the control instruction, and control content of the fitness apparatus corresponding to the control instruction may be executed based on the identification result.
Isokinetic Control Module and Method for Strength Training with User-Generated Resistance and Graphical Force Display
An isokinetic control module and method for incorporation on both new and existing exercise equipment. The control module replaces standard friction and hydraulic resistance components offering constant speed of the moveable elements of the machine rather than a selected resistance or weight. The constant user-generated resistance prevents injury and enhances strength training of the targeted muscle groups by maintaining constant strain on those muscles throughout the exercise. This method and device incorporates both a PCFC valve and a check valve device, removing all resistance the moment the user stops applying force to the machine. This enhances safety and facilitates the rapid return of the lifting element to its home position between repetitions. An optional graphical display is also disclosed.
Respiratory device and system for exercising and analyzing respiration of a user
The present disclosure relates to a respiratory system for exercising and analysing respiration of a subject comprising: a breathing unit comprising: a mouthpiece connected to: at least one inhalation air way, at least one exhalation air way, and an electronic sensor unit comprising at least one pressure gauge for measuring air pressure in the mouthpiece, and a processing unit for collecting/storing and/or transmitting air pressure data.
Addressable lighting and scorekeeping system
A lighting and scorekeeping system particularly applicable to leisure games is disclosed herein. The system is further applicable to games played to a score of twenty-one. Additionally, the system can be operated and customized locally or remotely with a wireless ad hoc network. Light arrays are programmable and/or addressable and uniquely laid out. One or more epoxy inlays are included for ambiance and partial light transmission. In a preferred embodiment, the system is configured to a cornhole game board.
