A variable radius cam mechanism is configured for use in a weight lifting apparatus. The variable radius cam mechanism includes a disk configured to rotate about an axis. The cam mechanism includes a cable guide coupled to the disk and defining a path for a cable and a radial tangent distance between the cable and the axis. The cam mechanism further includes one or more actuators coupled to the disk and the cable guide and configured to move the cable guide relative to the disk to change the radial tangent distance during rotation about the axis. The cam mechanism includes a controller programmed to operate the one or more actuators to cause the one or more actuators to move the cable guide to change the radial tangent distance thereby changing a force transferred through the cam mechanism.

This relates to systems and methods for determining the axial orientation and location of the user's wrist using one or more sensors located on the strap, the device underbody, or both. For example, the strap can include a plurality of elastic sections and a plurality of rigid sections. Each elastic section can include one or more flex sensors. In some examples, on or more electromyography (EMG) sensors can be included to measure the user's electrical signals, and the user's muscle activity can be determined. In some examples, a plurality of strain gauges can be included to generate one or more signals indicative of any changes in shape, size, and/or physical properties of the user's wrist. In some examples, the device can include a plurality of capacitance sensors for increased granularity and/or sensitivity in measuring the amount of tension exerted by the user's wrist.

An exercise motion tracking assembly, an exercise motion tracking system, and a method of electronically tracking exercise motion are disclosed. In one embodiment, the exercise motion tracking assembly can comprise a base unit comprising a plurality of trigger columns and a tracker comprising a plurality of column ports, a plurality of switching components, and a plurality of sensors. At least one of the plurality of sensors can be activated when the tracker is detachably coupled to the base unit, causing at least one of the plurality of trigger columns to extend through at least one of the plurality of column ports and actuate at least one of the plurality of switching components.

Swimming goggles are developed to allow a swimmer to see the end of the pool without moving their head while swimming in backstroke. Using a light reflector, a swimmer can see through a backstroke viewing window, allowing them to see along the direction that they are moving when swimming backstroke. Using a motion sensor and electric control circuits, a swimming goggle can provide optimum views for the swimmer wearing the swimming goggle. Using a sound speaker, a swimming goggle can play music and provide voice reports to the swimmer. The electronic controller for a swimming goggle can either be embedded as part of a swimming goggle, or can be detachable to support more than one swimming goggle.

A golf club head has a body defining a ball striking face. The body further has a first leg extending away from the ball striking face and a second leg extending away from the ball striking face wherein a void is defined between the first leg and the second leg. The body further defines a cover that extends over the void. The golf club head may further have support structures and adjustable weight members.

A sports ball may include a bladder having one or more inserts attached to or imbedded therein. The inserts may include a battery, a charging element, one or more microprocessors/sensors, memory and/or a speaker. The bladder may include pockets formed into the bladder either extending from the outside into the bladder and/or pockets disposed on the inside of the bladder. A hub for communicating with several balls and/or display devices may also be included.

A non-limiting example training instrument comprises a hollow main body formed of an aluminum alloy. The main body is constituted by two gripping portions opposite to each other with a space therebetween and a coupling portion coupling the two gripping portions. A load sensor is arranged in the coupling portion inside the main body. The load sensor is a load cell, a strain gauge affixed to an interior of the main body, and a part of the main body to which the strain gauge is affixed functions as a strain body. Therefore, if a user applies a force so as to bring the two gripping portions close to each other or a force so as to move the two gripping portions away from each other, a load thereof is detected by the load sensor.

A rehabilitation system includes a portable patient workstation configured to facilitate in-home rehabilitation therapy. In some embodiments, the workstation includes a computer configured to host computer-based activities that provide rehabilitative exercise to a patient when the patient participates in the activities, a monitor electrically connected to the computer and configured to display screens of the computer-based activities, a table upon which the monitor can be supported, a tabletop console supported on the table, the console including multiple integral user interface devices that are connected to the computer and adapted to receive patient inputs while the patient is participating in the activities, and a network interface device with which data can be transmitted and received by the patient workstation via a network.

This disclosure relates to systems, media, and methods for quantifying and monitoring exercise parameters and/or motion parameters, including performing data acquisition, analysis, and providing scientifically valid, clinically relevant, and/or actionable diagnostic feedback. Embodiments may be related to systems, devices, methods, and computer-readable media for providing baseline-adjusted real-time feedback to a user. Embodiments may include determining a type of activity for the user. Embodiment may include receiving data from the one or more motion sensors indicating a time-dependent series of three axis acceleration data and three-axis orientation data. Embodiments additionally may include providing a graphical user interface with a real-time representation of the received data. The real-time representation may include a scaled representation of at least one dimension of the time-dependent series of three axis acceleration data and three-axis orientation data for at least one of the one or more motion sensors based on the updated baseline adjustment.

Aspects of the invention are directed to golf club having a crown a sole and a face and a primary alignment feature including a paint or masking line which delineates the transition between at least a first portion of the crown having an area of contrasting shade or color with the shade or color of the face. In some embodiments the golf club has a primary alignment feature comprising a paint or masking line which delineates the transition between at least a first portion of the crown having an area of contrasting shade or color and the area of shade or color of the face and the club head also includes a secondary alignment feature including a paint or masking line which delineates the transition between the first portion of the crown having an area of contrasting shade or color with the shade or color of the face; and a second portion of the crown having an area of contrasting shade or color with the shade or color of the first portion.
