Treadmill having sensors
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.
Golf club
Aspects of the invention are directed to golf club having a crown, a sole, a face, and a primary alignment feature hard tooled into the golf club head. In some embodiments the golf club has a primary alignment feature comprising a line delineating a transition between at least a portion of the crown having an area of contrasting shade or color with a shade or color of the face. The primary alignment feature is hard tooled into the golf club head with the face of the golf club body.
Portable exercise-related data apparatus
A portable apparatus includes an exercise-measurement circuitry that measures exercise-related measurement data related to a user carrying out an exercise, a communication circuitry configured to provide the portable apparatus with wireless communication capability, and a processing circuitry configured to a perform operations. The operations include receiving the exercise-related measurement data from the exercise-measurement circuitry, receiving configuration data from an external user interface apparatus over a bidirectional wireless communication connection established through the communication circuitry and capable of transferring payload data to both directions, processing the exercise-related measurement data according to the received exercise-related parameters in order to obtain advanced exercise-related data, and communicating the advanced exercise-related measurement data to the user interface apparatus over the bidirectional wireless communication connection.
SWIM AR GOGGLES
Swimming goggles have a left-eye covering and a right-eye covering, each having a corresponding transparent window that defines a field of view and each further having a seal extending between the transparent window and the swimmer's face and formed to exclude water. A near-eye display is in signal communication with an image processor and forms a virtual image in the left- or right-eye field of view.
Automatic Detection and Quantification of Swimming
A wearable device for tracking swim activities of a user is provided. The wearable device may include one or more sensors configured to generate sensor data, and based on the sensor data, the wearable device may determine swim metrics such as swim stroke count, swim stroke type, swim lap count, and swim speed. The determined swim metrics may be filtered based on one or more swim periods during which the user is likely to have been swimming. The wearable device may determine such swim periods based on the sensor data and/or the determined swim metrics.
AUTOMATED OFFSIDE DETECTION AND VISUALIZATION FOR SPORTS
The present invention includes systems and methods for automated detection and visualization of offside positions. In soccer, offside is determined by the position of a player relative to the position of players on the opposing team and/or the soccer ball. The present invention provides systems and methods for tracking the location of players on a soccer field and for determining whether a player is in an offside position. The present invention further includes an imaging system for tracking the location of a boundary object that determines where offside positions begin. The system is then operable to enhance image and video data using the data collected during detection of offside positions.
GREEN INFORMATION MEASURING SYSTEM AND GREEN INFORMATION MEASURING METHOD
An embodiment of the present invention provides a green information measuring system, including: a first device configured to measure an electrical characteristic of soil through at least one electrode when a first condition is satisfied; and a second device configured to receive soil information of the soil from the first device and to transmit the soil information to a server when a second condition is satisfied.
MAGNETIC ECOSYSTEM FOR SPORTING PRODUCTS AND METHODS OF USING THE SAME
The present disclosure includes apparatuses, devices, and systems for use and handling of sporting accessories, such as golfing equipment. Some of the systems may include a golf bag having an integrated magnetic plate that extends along a first side of the golf bag and is configured to interact with a first magnetic field, a magnetic hub configured to interact with a second magnetic field, the magnetic hub configured to be coupled to the golf bag via a fastener; a magnetic holder configured to hold a first golf accessory such that the first golf accessory is secured to the golf bag while the magnetic holder is coupled to the magnetic plate or the magnetic hub, or combination thereof.
GOLFING DISTANCE CALCULATOR DEVICES AND METHODS
Distance display systems and methods are included which may be used to display an accurate range from a cup of a golf hole to a plurality of tee hitting positions.
Adaptive athletic activity prescription systems
Systems and methods for prescribing athletic activity to be performed by a user, and for adapting the prescribed athletic activity based on completed (e.g. ongoing) athletic performances by the user. A coaching plan may be automatically created that prescribes personalized athletic activities as a user trains towards a goal date. The athletic information may be received from one or more sensor devices associated with a user, and the coaching plan may be continuously or intermittently updated based on the received sensor data.
