SMART DEVICE
An Internet of Thing (IoT) device includes a body with a processor, a camera and a wireless transceiver coupled to the processor.
Internet sports computer cellular device
A system that wirelessly integrates actual sports equipment with a computer and the internet to allow players remotely located from one another to play a competitive simulated sports game. An individual player may opt to play solo or practice to improve basic techniques. The system includes motion sensors connected to the player and a motion sensing device, all containing circuits and contact or motion sensors coupled with signal processing and radio frequency transmitter circuitry, thereby wirelessly communicate game performance information to a remote receiver-computer. The computer displays player information and visually simulates and controls a game between two players via the internet, having similar equipment and remotely located from each other. Standard sports equipment may be retrofitted with the sensors and associated circuitry to convert such equipment into “smart equipment” for use with the system. The system employs specially developed computer software to process player performance data, control game play, communicate game information between players, generate and control visual simulations and display player performance information.
DEVICE FOR MEASURING POWER IN RESPONSE TO VARYING STRIKING CONDITION
The present invention relates to a power measuring device capable of obtaining accurate measurement values corresponding to changes in the state or environment of a target to be struck, and in variable striking conditions, such as being struck in a state in which movement of the target occurs, and the like. To this end, the present invention includes an air pocket group (11g) configured such that air pockets (11) are respectively formed in regions leading to a score according to striking in a target when the power measuring device (10) corresponding to variable striking conditions is installed on a target used in a fighting exercise; a piping tubes (12) formed to transmit pressure to a pressure sensor (13a) on the other side according to a change in volume on the air pocket (11) to increase the efficiency of score determination, by measuring a power at the time of strike by determining a strength (power) of the strike with an impulsive force applied to the air pocket (11); and a check valve (12a) formed in each piping tube (12) connecting each air pocket (11) at a front end of the pressure sensor (13a) to prevent air discharged when the air pocket (11) corresponding to a target point is struck from flowing to another air pocket (11) through the piping tube (12) connected to the pressure sensor (13a).
Reducing Brain Injury By Limiting Brain Motion During Sudden Deceleration Or Acceleration Of The Head
A brain injury reduction system provides a protective measure that temporarily or decreases venous drainage out of the intracranial compartment during or immediately before and during a sudden change in acceleration of an individual's head. Specifically, a wearable helmet or other wearable structure of the brain injury reduction system detects an impending collision and determines whether a protective measure is needed. If so, one or more actuation devices provides the protective measure to reduce venous drainage through one or both of the internal jugular veins or paravertebral venous plexus. A first actuation device stimulates a gag reflex or valsalva-like maneuver to reduce venous drainage through the paravertebral venous plexus. A second actuation device can physically compress the internal jugular veins. Thus, the brain injury reduction system minimizes the detrimental impact that may occur due to the sudden change in acceleration of the individual's head.
TORSO PROTECTOR DEVICE FOR MARTIAL ARTS
A torso protector device for martial arts is disclosed. The device comprises a cylindrical torso protection body to protect a wearer's torso; a shoulder cover coupled to the cylindrical torso protection body at front and rear portions thereof, wherein the shoulder cover has a neck opening defined in a top thereof, wherein left and right arm passing openings are defined in the shoulder cover in the left and right sides thereof respectively; a wire coupled to the cylindrical torso protection body and the shoulder cover; a wire adjuster module coupled to the wire; and a screener to screen the wire, wherein an adjustment dial is operatively coupled to the wire adjuster module, wherein the rotation of the adjustment dial results in length increase or decrease of the wire.
Accuracy ball
An accuracy ball has a target strike cover, sensors, grips, and a data core that function in combination to provide a device that a trainer can hold and a fighter can practice striking accurately. The accuracy ball has target aim points that a user attempts to strike. The ball can gather data concerning the user's performance during a workout, including strike: accuracy/precision, strength/force, number and velocity, etc. The target strike cover can provide cushioning, as needed. Internal grasp handles allow the accuracy ball to be held safely by providing protection from errant strikes. Sensors including force plates, accelerometers, gyroscopes, location sensing, temperature, pressure, humidity, etc. can all be incorporated. On/off switch, IO port (such as micro-USB), wireless communication devices, display screen, control switches, etc. can be integrated therein as well. Exported data can be tracked, analyzed, graphed, and used to enhance learning and improve skill-sets.
FULL SCALE DIGITAL REPLAY AND PRACTICE SYSTEM FOR USE BY POSITIONAL PLAYERS IN A TEAM-BASED SPORT
A system for providing player training including a grid of individually powered, processor controlled and communicable lighting elements and sensors which are embedded within a playing surface associated with the event, the lighting elements interfacing with at least one of a player worn sensor and/or a remote processor device for providing a visual illustration of any number of parameters associated with an actual player performance, including real time motion progressions of the player which are represented on the field surface and/or recreated on a processor driven screen which films or otherwise tracks the event. The simulated progressions can further replicate the desired motions of the positional player's intended motions or those of an opposing positional player and in lieu of the actual player being on the playing surface.
OBJECT SENSING AND FEEDBACK SYSTEM
In one general aspect, an apparatus to monitor movement of an object may include an input device configured to trigger pre-selection of a type of performance of the object, at least one sensor used to measure a motion parameter of the object, a controller configured to receive the motion parameter of the object and compare the measured motion parameter with a motion reference, and an output device configured to display, in real-time, a feedback information based on the comparison.
Force Measuring Exercise Device
A force measurement device has a motion dampening device having at least two ends. A first end is releasably engaged to a base frame and a second end is releasably engaged to a moveable member. A load cell is in communication with the motion dampening device. The load cell measures a force imparted by a user and the load cell registers the force to a display which depicts the registered force exerted by the user. A method for measuring the force a user imparts onto an exercise apparatus comprises the user imparting force onto a moveable member. The motion dampening device imparts a force substantially opposite to the user force and a load cell measures the force exerted by the user. The force is transmitted to a display wherein the display depicts the registered force imparted by the user.
Training device
The disclosed technology is a training device particularly well suited for training fighters as well as people simply interested in personal fitness. The device comprises a body portion defining an elongated flexible shape configure to be associated with a cover portion such as a modified focus mitt. The focus mitt defines a planar region further defining a target zone to be hit by the trainee. The body portion provides a flex region configured to absorb at least part of the inertia associated with a strike on the target zone to reduce the load on the trainer and trainee.
