A non-transitory storage medium having stored thereon logic is disclosed. The logic is executable by one or more processors to perform operations including receiving information associated with a selection of a first training drill, responsive to receiving the information associated with the selection of the first training drill and based on the first training drill, causing a first light to be placed in an activated state, wherein the first light is coupled to a first goal apparatus, and responsive to a triggering event, causing the first light to be placed in a deactivated state and causing a second light to be placed in an activated state. The goal apparatus includes posts that form a goal plane, wherein a first sensor pair is coupled to the goal, and wherein the triggering event is a detection of an object passing through the posts and across the goal plane.

A device for logging exercise data, the device includes a body for engaging with an exercise machine; an electrical system with a power source incorporated into the body and to record data; an image sensor incorporated into the body and to capture an image; a motion sensor incorporated into the body and to detect movement; the image sensor determines a weight load associated with the exercise machine; the motion sensor detects and records a number of repetitions of movement; and the device creates an exercise log associated with a user's workout.

Disclosed is system and method for measuring the tension of a tennis net, and, alternatively or in addition, for determining if a service let occurs via the measuring of the net tension. The disclosed embodiments measure a force exerted on the center-strap or the singles stick by the net. In these embodiments, the measured force provides an accurate reflection of the tension of the net.

An interactive exercise apparatus for guiding a user to perform exercises includes a frame, a mirror, a display device, a driving mechanism, a determination unit, and a control unit. The mirror is movably mounted on the frame and configured to reflect an image of the user. The display device is disposed on a backside of the mirror and visible through the mirror. The driving mechanism is mounted between the frame and the mirror for electrically driving the mirror to move with respect to the frame. The determination unit is configured to determine location or posture of the user who performing the exercise. The control unit is operable to control the driving mechanism according to the location or posture of the user identified by the determination unit so as to control the mirror to move to a suitable position where the user can see their reflected image.

According to an embodiment, a device for recognizing a free weight training motion comprises a depth camera obtaining image information for measuring a user's body information before exercise and obtaining image information including a unique identifier attached to a piece of exercise equipment and motion of each joint of the user and a variation in body surface due to a motion of the body of the user doing exercise using the piece of exercise equipment, a sensor unit measuring a state of the piece of exercise equipment and recognizing the user, and a controller controlling the depth camera and the sensor unit and processing various pieces of information obtained by the depth camera and the sensor unit.

The present disclosure provides for attention and exertion based safety mechanisms in exercise devices by: identifying a user exercising on an exercise device while the exercise device is in a first state; monitoring a physical state and an attentiveness level of the user while the exercise device is in the first state, wherein monitoring the attentiveness level includes monitoring targets of a gaze of the user within a time window and a consistency of the gaze within the time window; determining, based on the physical state and the attentiveness level of the user, that the user is experiencing a risk of injury above a predefined threshold; and adjusting the exercise device from the first state to a second state to alleviate the risk of injury.

The walking training system includes: a treadmill; a determination unit configured to determine whether a walking of the trainee on the treadmill is an abnormal walking based on predetermined abnormal walking symptoms; a display unit configured to display a result of a determination of each of the abnormal walking symptoms; a reception unit configured receive a selection of at least one result of the determination from the results of the determinations, each of which displayed on the display unit, in which regarding pieces of advice about adjustment items for improving the abnormal walking symptoms in the result of the determination which the reception unit has received the selection, the display unit preferentially displays the pieces of advice that are common to pieces of advice about adjustment items for improving the abnormal walking symptoms in a result of another determination in which the determination unit determines the abnormal walking.

Described herein are systems and methods for favorably coordinating a timing relationship between a musculoskeletal activity cycle and a cardiac cycle of a user. A method may include repetitively detecting a signal that correlates to a blood volume in the user; determining an actual value of the signal that varies with the timing relationship; computing a trend of the actual value of the signal; and adjusting the movement guidance based on the trend of the actual value. A system may include a prompt device configured to provide recurrently a movement guidance to the user for guiding performance of the rhythmic musculoskeletal activity; a sensor configured to provide a signal that correlates to a blood volume in the user; and a processor configured to determine an actual value of the signal that varies with the timing relationship and to adjust the movement guidance based on the trend of the actual value.

The present invention relates to a display device including a communicator configured to communicate with an external apparatus that operates for a workout of a user; a display configured to display an image; and a controller configured to determine workout conditions of the user, and control the communicator to transmit a control signal to the external apparatus so that the display can display a corresponding image and the external apparatus can change the operation in accordance with the determined workout conditions of the user.
