SWIM AR GOGGLES
Swimming goggles have a left-eye covering and a right-eye covering, each having a corresponding transparent window that defines a field of view and each further having a seal extending between the transparent window and the swimmer's face and formed to exclude water. A near-eye display is in signal communication with an image processor and forms a virtual image in the left- or right-eye field of view.
Physical education kinematic motor skills testing system
Disclosed herein is a system for testing motor skills involved in locomotor, non-locomotor, and manipulative activities. The system utilizes joint data created by a motion sensor during a subject's performance of an activity to determine the subject's motor skill proficiency for that activity. The system compares the subject's joint data to benchmark data to detect one or more phases of the activity. Based on the comparison, the system also determines the subject's proficiency in the particular motor skill tested. The system is embodied in a computer-implemented application that provides various user interfaces for navigating through the user interfaces, accessing a database of the system, testing a subject's motor skills, analyzing a subject's proficiency, and facilitating practice of motor skills.
Device and methods for improved resistance training
An exercise device in accordance with the present disclosure may include a body having a first end and a second end, wherein a first end is configured to receive a handle attachment. The exercise device may also include a first connection component disposed at the second end of the body and configured to attach the exercise device to a first resistance component. A sensor may be coupled to the first connection component. Additionally, a processing circuit may be disposed in the body of the exercise device communicatively coupled to the sensor. The exercise device may include a rotatable display configured to be visible to a user as a user performs movements with the exercise device.
SURFING SIMULATION DEVICE AND SURFING SIMULATION METHOD
A surfing simulation device can be wirelessly connected with virtual reality (VR) glasses. The surfing simulation device includes a surfboard, a surfboard base, and a controller disposed in the surfboard base. The controller controls the actions of the surfboard based on scene information associated with a surfing scene displayed in the VR glasses, such that the actions of the surfboard are synchronous with the surfing scene displayed in the VR glasses. The surfboard of the surfing simulation device can make simulating actions in real time by synchronizing with a surfing scene displayed in VR glasses, such that users can experience the immersive feeling.
Systems, devices, and methods including a spinal resistance assembly
Systems, devices, and methods are described for providing, among other things, a neck and spine strengthening device. The strengthening device includes a spinal resistance assembly configured to apply a resist force or to resist rotation about at least a first axis, and a head affixing assembly configured to secure to a head of a user during use. The strengthening device is instrumented with sensors and an embedded computing system configured to securely exchange exercise performance and configuration data with local client devices, and to monitor and record exercise activity and exercise performance data.
INDOOR BICYCLE ADJUSTMENT METHOD AND SYSTEM
A stationary indoor “smart” training bicycle includes a unique combination of adjustable components to provide configurable dimensions to adjust the frame size of the indoor bicycle to properly fit a rider. A system is also provided to process a digital image of an outdoor bicycle and determine and translate dimensions and adjustments to the indoor bicycle to match one or more dimensions (lengths, angles, separations, etc.) of the outdoor bicycle.
ERGONOMIC HANDHELD WEIGHT UNIT AND METHOD OF USE
Systems and methods for a small light weight unit that can be securely held and centered in the palm of the holder during physical activities, such as exercises, including aerobic exercises. The weight unit also includes features for securing the weight in the palm during the exercise to achieve a specific desired weight and intensity of workout.
SMART SOCCER GOAL
A smart soccer goal for tracking and communicating motion of objects includes a goal frame; a net coupled to the goal frame including a plurality of lights; and one or more sensors coupled to the goal frame. A first sensor of the one or more sensors is directed to detecting movement within and immediately near the smart soccer goal and a second sensor of the one or more sensors is directed to detecting movement outside of the smart soccer goal.
Golf Training Apparatus
Novel tools and techniques for teaching a player the proper alignment when addressing a golf ball. In one aspect, such tools and techniques provide an alignment aid that allows the player to visualize both the intended target line of the shot as well as the position of the ball relative to the player's stance, allowing the player to easily modify his stance to obtain the proper alignment.
Monitoring and tracking athletic activity
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.
