SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INTEGRATING MEASUREMENTS CAPTURED DURING A GOLF SWING
The present embodiments provide systems and methods for aggregating measurements captured by different technologies during a golf swing. By capturing measurements using different technologies, more accurate measurements may be provided to a user by selecting from the measurements, offsetting measurements based on the technologies used, and aligning measurements between devices. Further, by aggregating measurements received from different devices, additional features and functionality may be provided to the user that is absent from any one device used alone. Additionally, by storing the aggregated measurements, users, club fitters and instructors may access and leverage larger databases of measurements to better understand the user's golf swing and to provide better recommendations and instruction to the user.
VIRTUAL REALITY SPORTS TRAINING SYSTEMS AND METHODS
Virtual and augmented reality sports training environments are disclosed. A user interacts with virtual players in a simulated environment of a virtual reality sporting event. In some embodiments, the user's actions and decisions are monitored by the simulated environment. The environment evaluates the user's performance, and provides performance feedback based on the user's decisions and timing. In one application, real life pitchers and their pitching data are tracked and replicated in a simulated pitching environment. A team of users may practice against a simulation of a pitcher they are about to compete against, swinging at pitches that they would see in a real game. Such environments may maximize effective practice time for users, and help develop better players with improved decision-making skills. Some embodiments include various pitch recognition training, which may be against replicated real-life pitchers.

DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS FOR AN EXERCISE DEVICE AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF
An exercise device includes a use-sensor connected to a flywheel. The use-sensor detects motion of the flywheel. If the flywheel is moving, a power interrupt on a power supply connects power to the exercise device. If the flywheel is not moving, the power interrupt disconnects power from the exercise device, thereby improving device safety.
Step counting device and method
The present disclosure discloses a step counting device that includes a motion detection circuit, a storage circuit and a processing circuit. The motion detection circuit detects a body movement to generate a detection signal. The processing circuit executes computer executable commands to execute the steps outlined below. The detection signal is received from the motion detection circuit. Key data points from the detection signal and representing a simplified waveform are approximated and stored in the storage circuit, each corresponding to a turning data point within a predetermined time period of the detection signal. Periodic waveform sections in the simplified waveform are identified, wherein an error value of waveform parameters between each two of the periodic waveform sections is smaller than a predetermined value. A step group count including a left step and a right step corresponding to each of the periodic waveform sections is accumulated.
SYSTEM AND METHOD OF DETECTING WALKING ACTIVITY USING WAIST-WORN INERTIAL SENSORS
A system and method for monitoring a walking activity are disclosed, which have three major components: a pre-processing phase, a step detection phase, and a filtering and post-processing phase. In the preprocessing phase, recorded motion data is received, reoriented with respect to gravity, and low-pass filtered. Next, in the step detection phase, walking step candidates are detected from vertical acceleration peaks and valleys resulting from heel strikes. Finally, in the filtering and post-processing phase, false positive steps are filtered out using a composite of criteria, including time, similarity, and horizontal motion variation. The method 200 is advantageously able to detect most walking activities with accurate time boundaries, while maintaining very low false positive rate.
