A method, a false start detection system, and a false start detection sensor for determining whether an athlete has performed a false start in an event. Force data is received representing the force exerted by at least one upper appendage of the athlete on a surface when in a starting position (S701). The force data is processed to determine an athlete start time (S702), and the athlete start time is compared to an event start time to determine whether a false start has occurred (S703).

A treadmill includes a frame. A running belt is coupled to the frame so that the running belt is adapted for rotation relative to the frame. At least one sensor is adapted for collecting parameter information regarding the experience of a user of the treadmill. The parameter information is selected from the group consisting of the user's heart rate, total expended calories, stride length, stride force, cadence, pace, distance, resistance level, incline level, carver count, carver cadence, step count, ground contact time, relative position within a race, and relative position on the treadmill. The treadmill also includes at least one light source that is adapted to selectively communicate information to an instructor relating to the parameter.

Systems and methods for identifying a condition of a user. A treatment apparatus is configured to be manipulated by the user for performing an exercise, and an interface is communicably coupled to the treatment apparatus. One or more sensors are configured to sense one or more characteristics of an anatomical structure of the user. A processing device and a memory is communicatively coupled to the processing device. The memory includes computer readable instructions, that when executed by the processing device, cause the processing device to: receive, from the sensors, one or more sensor inputs representative of the one or more of characteristics of the anatomical structures; calculate an infection probability of a disease based on the one or more characteristics of the anatomical structures; and output, to the interface, a representation of the infection probability.

A training device and a training method for reducing hypertonic are disclosed. The training device includes a base, a driving circuit, two pedals, a control circuit, and a switch circuit. The driving circuit is fixed on the base. Each of the two pedals is coupled to the base. The driving circuit drives each of the two pedals to swing repeatedly between a first position and a second position relative to the base. When the control circuit executes a training program, the control circuit actuates the driving circuit.

A method that includes receiving treatment data associated with a user capable of using a treatment device to perform a treatment plan. The method also includes receiving user related data (URD) associated with the use and receiving alignment data associated with the user while the user engages in at least one activity. The method also includes identifying, based on at least the treatment data, the URD, and the alignment data, at least one alignment characteristic associated with the user and modifying at least one aspect of the treatment plan in response to receiving, from a healthcare professional, treatment plan input including at least one modification to the at least one aspect of the treatment plan.

A rock climbing wall includes a support wall and a plurality of rock climbing holds attached to the support wall. The rock climbing wall also includes a sensing apparatus that determines that a climber traversing the rock climbing wall has contacted a first one of the plurality of rock climbing holds. In addition, the rock climbing wall includes a control device that, upon receipt of a signal from the sensing apparatus indicative of the climber contacting the first one of the plurality of rock climbing holds, causes at least a second one of the plurality of rock climbing holds to be indicated as an additional hold to be contacted as the climber traverses a climbing route along the wall.

Treadmill protective cover and methods of use are disclosed herein. An example system includes a protective cover for a treadmill, a sensor associated with the treadmill or the protective cover, the sensor detecting when an object is near or within an entrapping area between the protective cover and a conveyor of the treadmill, and a controller configured to receive signals from the sensor, the controller allowing the conveyor to freely operate when no objects are sensed within the entrapping area and stopping the conveyor when an object is sensed within the entrapping area.

An Internet of Thing (IoT) device includes a body with a processor, a camera and a wireless transceiver coupled to the processor.

According to one example, an exercise system includes a vertical housing, a first weighted touchpoint coupled to the vertical housing and configured to allow a user to exercise one or more muscles on a first side of the user, a first weight system coupled to the first weighted touchpoint, a second weighted touchpoint coupled to the vertical housing and configured to allow the user to exercise one or more muscles on a second side of the user, and a second weight system coupled to the second weighted touchpoint. The exercise system further includes a control system configured to cause the first weight system to automatically provide a first heavier weight to the first weighted touchpoint for a first exercise and further cause the second weight system to automatically provide a second lighter weight to the second weighted touchpoint for the first exercise.

Tracking and monitoring athletic activity offers individuals with additional motivation to continue such behavior. An individual may track his or her athletic activity by completing goals. These goals may be represented by real-world objects such as food items, landmarks, buildings, statues, other physical structures, toys and the like. Each object may correspond to an athletic activity goal and require an amount of athletic activity to complete the goal. For example, a donut goal object may correspond to an athletic activity goal of burning 350 calories. The user may progress from goal object to goal object. Goal objects may increase in difficulty (e.g., amount of athletic activity required) and might only be available for selection upon completing an immediately previous goal object, a number of goal objects, an amount of athletic activity and the like.
