Force measurement system
11540744 · 2023-01-03 · ·

A force measurement system is disclosed herein. The force measurement system includes a force measurement assembly configured to receive a subject, and one or more data processing devices operatively coupled to the force measurement assembly. In one embodiment, the one or more data processing devices are configured to determine a difference between a center of pressure and a center of mass for the subject from output force and/or moment data, and to determine the fall risk of the subject based upon the difference between the center of pressure and the center of mass for the subject. In another embodiment, the one or more data processing devices are configured to determine one or more balance parameters of the subject from the output force and/or moment data while the subject is stepping onto the top surface of the force measurement assembly and/or stepping off the top surface of the force measurement assembly.

BALANCE TRAINING SYSTEMS AND METHODS

Systems and methods are disclosed for human balance training. The systems and methods involve intermittently occluding the vision of a subject while the subject is engaged in a balance activity, such as walking on a balance beam, for example. Creating a brief period of continuous visual occlusion results in posterior parietal cortex activation, leading to enhanced balance training. The end result is much greater improvement in balance compared to physical training alone.

A hopscotch trampoline has a trampoline with a bed suspended across a trampoline frame. The bed has a bed center, a bed middle, and a bed periphery. A trampoline length is greater than a trampoline width. A hopscotch field is formed on the bed. The hopscotch field includes successive areas. The successive areas are at least partially linearly oriented. Contact sensors mounted on each area and the contact sensors are electrically connected by an electrical connection and electrically connected to a control panel harness. A middle crossbar can extend underneath the bed and connecting a right vertical post to a left vertical post.

11534661 · 2022-12-27 · ·

Systems and methods are for production, management, syndication and distribution of digital assets through a network such as the Internet or wireless network. Digital media assets are distributed to consumers through a syndicated network of Outlets under control of a central platform. Distribution is format agnostic. There is a single platform between the B2B2C, wherein a platform allows, through a single access for each stakeholder, the ability to each have control over availability dates and pricing specifications to a plurality of merchants and/or subscription outlets or channels. Subscription channels can support micro-subscriptions with diversely curated and priced offerings, including acceptance of crypto-currency. The delivered media assets may include content associated with an exercise apparatus, including content for an exercise session including computer generated content and computer augmented content created in response to exercise session data.

The present invention describes an electromechanical exercise machine that simulates the inertia and weight of a mass in Earth's gravity field and allows a user to move said simulated mass in the primary degrees of freedom of a traditional barbell free-weight system, with or without the use of various accessories.

WALKING STATE MEASUREMENT SYSTEM, WALKING STATE MEASUREMENT METHOD AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM

A walking state measurement system includes: an endless belt that defines a walking surface on which a subject walks and that travels along a walking front-rear direction; a marker provided on at least the walking surface along a circumferential direction of the belt; a first camera for taking an image of the subject from front, the first camera taking an image of the marker on the walking surface from above to generate a first image; a second camera for taking an image of the subject from front, the second camera taking an image of the marker on the walking surface from above to generate a second image; and a correction processing unit that corrects an image generated by at least either the first camera or the second camera based on a position of an image area of the marker included in each of the first image and the second image.

APPARATUS AND METHOD OF INDICATING A STANCE FOR A GOLFER
20220395739 · 2022-12-15 ·

An apparatus is provided for indicating a golf stance. The apparatus includes foot markers configured to provide an indication of where on the ground the golfer should place his feet and a reference grid arranged on the ground in a predetermined relationship relative to the foot markers, the reference grid including a plurality of points arranged in labelled rows and columns, thereby to identify each point in the reference grid. The apparatus has a golf club attachment including an attachment formation for attachment to a shaft of a golf club and an aiming aperture or reticule, wherein the golfer is able to align his eye with one of the points on the reference grid using or through the aiming aperture. The apparatus further has a ball marker and a support stand which supports the ball marker at an elevated position above the ground where the ball is intended to be placed, wherein the golfer is able to align his eye with the ball when placed on the ground using the ball marker. In use, (1) placement of the golfer's feet, (2) alignment of the golfer's eye (and accordingly head) with one of the points on the grid and the golf club using the aiming aperture, and (3) aligning the golfer's eye (and accordingly head) with the ball using the ball marker causes a desired or predictable stance of the golfer.

Method and program for providing remote rehabilitation training

A method for providing remote rehabilitation training is provided. The method includes receiving, by a server, a connection request from a user terminal and a therapist terminal, receiving, by the server, first image data, about an appearance where a user performs rehabilitation training using a rehabilitation training device, in real time from the user terminal, receiving, by the server, second image data, provided to the user who is performing the rehabilitation training, in real time from a rehabilitation training display device, and transmitting, by the server, the received first image data and the received second image data to the therapist terminal in real time.
