Training aid and alert
A golf training device and method indicates the proper position and/or motion of the golfer's trail wrist during the club downswing. The device may detect that desired DWLA is attained and provide real-time alerts of same. The device may provide positive feedback in the form of an auditory, tactile, visual and/or other signal.
FITNESS CONTROL SYSTEM AND SPINNING BICYCLE
Provided are a fitness control system and a spinning bicycle. The system includes: a central controlling unit for detecting change information of each parameter of the fitness equipment; and a terminal device for controlling, according to the change information of each parameter of the fitness equipment, a virtual character to simulate movement of a user who uses the fitness equipment in the target fitness scene, and for real-time detecting during a virtual character simulates movement of the user, the road condition information in the target fitness scene, and feeding back to the central controlling unit a control signal matching a set condition. The central controlling unit is also configured to control, according to the control signal, the fitness equipment to generate feedback matching the influence.
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ISCHEMIC PRE-CONDITIONING USING EXERCISE
The various embodiments of the present invention provide a system and method for a fully mobile, non-invasive, continuous system for monitoring the cardiovascular and musculoskeletal health of an individual during exercise, and for administering a protocol for ischemic pre-conditioning. The system includes a wearable devices affixed on the user with a chest strap, coupled with an application running on a computing device (smartphone/smartwatch), which performs various computations on the wearable device, and allows the user to get real time alerts during exercise, by way of vibrations or audio messages or notifications on the gateway device, to guide them through a protocol for ischemic pre-conditioning.
LET DETECTION SYSTEM FOR MONITORING MOVEMENT OF A NET CORD
A let detection system includes a sensor including an accelerometer attached to a tennis net. The sensor is in wireless communication with an umpire device able to send a message to the sensor, wherein the message causes the sensor to calibrate and begin monitoring for a let. The sensor determines a three-dimensional (3D) vector representing the gravity acting on the sensor as a baseline. When the sensor detects vertical acceleration of the net relative to the baseline and the vertical motion is above a preset threshold, the sensor automatically transmits a let notification message to the umpire device.
Rehabilitation Action Guidance Assistive Device
The present invention provides a rehabilitation action guidance assistive device comprising a display device, a sensing device and a rehabilitation evaluation system. The display device displays an image for a user to watch and imitate. The sensing device comprises a sensing element, a storage element, a processing element, a data transmission element and a power supply element. The sensing element is used for sensing action state values of the rehabilitation carrier or the user; the storage element is used for storing the action state values; the processing element is used for performing a signal calculation; the data transmission element transmits the action state values to the rehabilitation evaluation system through a wireless communication method; and the power supply element provides an electric power with an operational function of the sensing device. The rehabilitation evaluation system indicates the difference in ratio between the user's action state values and reference action state values.
Measuring a pull force on an exercise band
A patient can undergo physical therapy to rehabilitate a musculoskeletal condition. The success of the rehabilitation relies in part on whether the patient uses an exercise band with the correct resistance for their condition. In order to select the correct resistance, a controller can instruct the patient to perform a directed movement with an exercise band, receive exercise data from at least one sensor (e.g., a camera, like a front-facing camera, that records the patient, a plurality of sensors on or near the patient's skin, etc.) as the subject performs the directed movement, and calculate a pull force exerted by the patient on the exercise band based on at least a portion of the exercise data. The adequacy of an exercise with the exercise band for the patient is determined based on the pull force can be determined based on the calculated pull force.
GOLF TRAINING AID
A golf training aid (10) that is arranged to he attached to one of the front and back legs (36) of a golfer (30). The golf training aid comprising a monitoring arrangement (14) for monitoring progressive movement of the back leg towards the front leg of the golfer; and an alarm arrangement (16) for alerting the golfer when displacement of the back leg towards the front leg has reached a predetermined position, to enable the golfer to make necessary bodily movements to swing a club that is held by the golfer.
Automated Interval Pacer
Implemented is an interval timer with pacer functionality (referred to herein as “interval pacer” for short), enabling a user to work out to a given pace and then automatically switches to a resting period when the pre-set pace is complete. The interval pacer may be an instantiated application on a user’s computing device, such as a smartphone, smartwatch, head-mounted display (HMD) device, etc., or may be a standalone application instantiated on a dedicated computing device specifically designed for the interval pacer application. The interval pacer application is adapted to enhance previous interval timer applications by providing a customizable pacer option which is virtually a fully customizable solution for a user to have an individualized exercise plan. In addition, the interoperation of the pacer with the interval timer enriches workout sessions by pushing the user to stick with the user-set pace for the user-designated period.
Hinged arm muscle exercise device
In one example, a muscle exercise device includes a first arm, a second arm rotatably connected to the first arm, and the second arm and first arm configured to cooperatively define a recess. The muscle exercise device also includes a resistance element configured to reside in the recess and be compressed between the first arm and the second arm, and a wireless transmitter disposed in either the first arm or the second arm, wherein the wireless transmitter is responsive to communications from an app residing on a user device.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TARGETED NEUROLOGICAL THERAPY USING BRAINWAVE ENTRAINMENT WITH PASSIVE TREATMENT
A system and method for targeted neurological treatment using brainwave entrainment therapy with passive treatment that allows for targeted treatment of particular areas of the brain, particular neurological functions, particular neurological states, and combinations of areas, functions, and states. The system and method receive gait parameters for an individual and compare those against a database of historical gait data to determine if an onset neurodegenerative condition is present, and applies a brainwave entrainment therapy responsive to the determination of the condition. The system and method receive a neurological assessment identifying areas of the brain or neurological functions to be treated, select one or more treatment modalities and frequencies, select a treatment regimen, and apply brainwave entrainment using a treatment regimen while the subject engages in dual-task activities selected to stimulate the areas of the brain, neurological functions, or neurological states to be treated, enhanced, or altered.
