The rotational position of the sleeve may correspond to a different combination of the plurality of weights fixedly connected to the handle assembly. The computing device may be configured to determine the different combination of the plurality of weights fixedly connected to the handle assembly based on the rotational position of the indexing wheel detected by the at least one sensor.

A smart garment and a control method of a smart garment are provided. The smart garment includes a control module, a flexible sensor, and a flexible display. The flexible sensor and the flexible display are both electrically connected with the control module. When the flexible sensor detects a touch signal, the control module controls the flexible display to indicate a touch location corresponding to the touch signal.

The present disclosure provides a handle exercising device and a set of exercising devices. The handle exercising device includes a handle body, a chamber, a buckle portion, a release button, and two female buckles. The handle body has a top surface and a bottom surface. The chamber is disposed in the handle body along an axial direction of the handle body, wherein the chamber has an opening facing one end of the handle body. The buckle portion is disposed in the chamber and buckles a predetermined assembly inserting the chamber via the opening. The release button is disposed at the top surface of the handle body and connected with the buckle portion to release a buckling status of the buckling portion. The female buckles are disposed at the bottom surface of the handle body and arranged in parallel along the axial direction.

A therapy and physical training system, comprising one or more movement sensors each of which positioned on a corresponding body part of a user, a first computer on a processor of which an application is running and a head mounted housing which is configured with a display on which images generated by the first computer are visible to the user. The application is configured to receive inputs from each of the sensors or from a second computer in data communication with each of the sensors, the application also configured to generate, in response to a real-time disposition of each of the corresponding body parts during performance of an exercise related body movement, a virtual reality object viewable by the user, the object being indicative of an additional body movement to be made by the user in order to conform with a user-specific exercise program.

A soft-inflatable exosuit for knee rehabilitation is fabricated in two different beam-like structures (I and O cross-section actuators) and mechanically characterized for their torque performance in knee-extension assistance. The fabrication procedure of both types of actuators is presented as well as their integration into a light-weight, low-cost and body-conforming interface. To detect the activation duration of the device during the gait cycle, a soft-silicone insole with embedded force-sensitive resistors (FSRs) is used. In evaluation studies, the soft inflatable exosuit device is tested for its ability to reduce muscle activity during the swing phase of the knee. Using sEMG (surface electromyography) sensors, the rectus femoris muscle group of a healthy individual is recorded while walking on a treadmill at a constant speed, with and without the soft device.

Described is a motivational fitness process using motion sensing apparatus to correlate exercise performance with entertainment audio volume for the purpose of rewarding exercise performance goals and penalizing poor exercise performance. The user must exercise in a chosen target training range to maintain a desired entertainment audio volume. Motion sensors in a mobile or stationary device or worn by user provide continuous movement data to a processor unit. The processor receives and compares the user's movement data to a user-specified target range and periodically sends control commands (or not) to raise or lower audio volume output of an entertainment device. If the user's exercise pace drops below a targeted performance range, audio volume output of their entertainment device gradually decreases unless the user reacquires their performance target range at which time volume is restored. Desired volume is maintained so long as target zone performance is maintained.

A switchable intelligent fitness handle is disclosed. A processor (11), a movement posture sensor (12) and a touch sensor (13) are built in the handle (7). The movement posture sensor (12) and the touch sensor (13) are connected to the processor (11). Each handheld fitness equipment has a corresponding sensor, and a pin connector (16, 17, 18, 19) that is matched with the bayonet (15) of the handle and provided with a signal line. Thus, the goal of accomplishing a set of exercises with a plurality of handheld fitness equipments by using one same set of handles can be achieved. An intelligent fitness set containing the fitness handle is further disclosed.

A training device for training a player to shoot a basketball. The device includes a plate member configured to engage at least a portion of a hand and wrist of a non-shooting hand of the player, at least one attachment member connected to the plate member and configured to secure the plate member to the non-shooting hand of the player, and a link strap connected at a first end to the plate member and having an aperture through which a wrist of a shooting hand of the player can be aligned. The non-shooting hand and the shooting hand are linked together such that the non-shooting hand is restricted from rotation relative to the shooting hand when the non-shooting hand and the shooting hand are placed in spaced relation on an associated basketball.

A method and system for monitoring physiological movements and providing feedback to increase a user's kinesthetic awareness utilizes a kinesthetic awareness tool that includes a plurality of sensors, a processing unit, and a plurality of feedback devices. The plurality of sensors is used to gather data as a set of reference data and in real-time as a user engages in a training session. The plurality of sensors may include an accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer, and ultrasonic range finder. Data obtained during the training session is processed in real-time by the processing unit and compared to the set of reference data. The processing device may then instruct one or more of the plurality of feedback devices to produce a response signal to guide the user to the correct position. The plurality of feedback devices may be configured to provide acoustic, visual, haptic, or kinetic feedback.
