20170319905 · 2017-11-09 ·

A weight training apparatus includes a telescoping pivot arm comprised of a concentric arrangement of an outer tube and an inner tube and configured to pivot about an axis and receive a weight at a predetermined position. The weight training apparatus further includes an actuator attached to the telescoping pivot arm and configured to cause relative motion between the inner tube and the outer tube to change a length between the predetermined position and the axis. The weight training apparatus further includes a sensor configured to output a signal indicative of an angular position of the telescoping pivot arm about the axis and a controller programmed to operate the actuator to cause the length to change based on the signal to achieve a target resistance profile.

WEARABLE RESISTANCE DEVICE WITH POWER MONITORING

Disclosed is a technical training garment configured for use with modular, interchangeable biomechanics units and or resistance modules. The garment may provide resistance to movement throughout an angular range of motion and or tracks a variety of biomechanical parameters such as stride length, stride rate, angular velocity and power expended by the wearer. The garment may be low profile, and worn by a wearer as a primary garment or beneath or over conventional clothing or athletic uniform. The device may be worn as a supplemental training and or diagnostic tool during conventional training protocols, or as a biomechanics or biometric data capture device during competition.

MARTIAL ARTS POLEARM POSTURE SENSING DEVICE AND POSTURE SENSING METHOD THEREOF
20220203163 · 2022-06-30 ·

The present invention relates to a martial arts polearm posture sensing device and the posture sensing method thereof, wherein two sensor units are installed on the polearm neck and the polearm end separately in order to collect sensor signals of the angular acceleration, acceleration or/and geomagnetic field intensity of the polearm neck and the polearm end respectively, and then output the sensor signals to the outside. The signals generated by these two sensor units are received by the computer equipment and converted by the computation and conversion modules, installed in the computer equipment, into signals of the motion posture at a specific time and the overall motion trajectory of the martial arts polearm for output thus to facilitate the analysis and intelligent comparison by the smart sports module. The present invention helps the trainees and the instructors to learn or teach the martial arts polearm postures and makes the exercise and training easier while discovering the most suitable techniques and moves of the martial arts polearm.
