The present invention relates to a device and a method associated with the device. With respect to the device, it is a set of game equipment, which is used to play an interactive athletic game. This device can be used to allow two teams of players to compete with the intent to score more points than the opposing team.

The core components of the invention are a ball and blocks, which, generally speaking, are configured as follows: cone-like blocks that can be assembled at the narrow ends and stacked into one column and a cushioned ball for throwing and striking.

With respect to the associated method, in order to carry out the method the following core steps are followed: begin the game by stacking all the blocks, then the offensive team will attempt to knock down the blocks and reassemble them.

Meanwhile, the opposing team attempts to eliminate the opposing team players by striking them with the ball. Ultimately, at the conclusion of these steps, if the offensive team is successful in stacking the blocks before the opposing team eliminates the members, they have scored a point.

A method determines running phases of a user on a treadmill having first and second rotating elements rotating about respective rotational axes transverse to a longitudinal axis of the treadmill. A physical exercise surface connects to the rotating elements. An electric motor operatively associated with one rotating element rotates the rotating elements and the physical exercise surface. A processor connects to the electric motor and controls the electric motor. The processor determines a magnitude variable over time, which is correlated to user interaction with the exercise surface while exercising and has a periodic trend. The processor determines time instants of at least two points of the periodic trend. The time instants of each point representing instants of user interaction with the exercise surface. The processor determines a running phase of the user on the exercise surface as a function of the respective time instants of the periodic trend.

The invention is directed to systems, devices, and methods for measuring force and repetitions during exercise or rehabilitation activities. Devices in accordance with embodiments may include: a casing; a processor within the casing; a display visibly on the casing; a first attachment portion on one end of the casing; a second attachment portion on an opposite end of the casing; and a force sensor connected to the first and the second attachment portion, the force sensor in communication with the processor. Methods may include: attaching a pneumatic exercise device to the wireless force measurement device; conducting exercises causing a piston in the pneumatic exercise device to move compared to from the wireless force measurement device; counting, by the device, the number of times the piston moves towards or away from the device; determining, by the device the amount of force applied through the pneumatic exercise device during the exercise.

A system includes a minimally intrusive display system (MIDS) configured to be disposed on an eyewear. The MIDS includes a display system and a sensor system configured to provide for a sensor data. The MIDS further includes a processor configured to process the sensor data to derive a physiological measure. The processor is further configured to display, via the display system, the physiological measure, wherein the display system is disposed in the eyewear so that the physiological measure is only viewed when a user of the eyewear turns the user's pupil towards the display system at angle α from a forward direction.

An exercise machine comprises a motor. The exercise machine comprises a lockable translatable mount. The exercise machine comprises a cable coupled to the motor via the lockable translatable mount. The exercise machine comprises a sensor coupled to the lockable translatable mount. The sensor is used at least in part to determine mount lock state.

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.

A basketball performance monitoring system sensor including at least one sensor proximate a basketball goal having a backboard, a rim coupled to the backboard, and a net having strings coupled to the rim; the at least one sensor configured to determine shot information, the shot information comprising both an impact of a basketball with at least one of the backboard and the rim, and a shot passing through the rim; a local microprocessor coupled to the at least one sensor; a housing containing both the at least one sensor and the local microprocessor; the housing includes geometric features to reduce the likelihood of tangling housing in the net; and the housing having a first end and a second end opposite the first end; wherein the first end of the housing extends outside the net; wherein the second end of housing includes an arm extending inside the net.

A system for measuring golf ball trajectory characteristics is disclosed. The system includes artificial grass with a launch location for a golf ball and a plurality of wide-angle distance optical sensors mechanically connected to the artificial grass positioned such that a field of measurement of each wide-angle distance optical sensors intersects. The system also includes a central processing unit connected to the wide-angle distance optical sensors, the central processing unit configured to collect distance measurements from the wide-angle distance optical sensors and to determine a velocity of a trajectory of the golf ball from the launch location to the intersection of the field of measurement of each wide-angle distance optical sensors given a distance between the plurality of the wide-angle distance optical sensors, a distance between the plurality of the wide-angle distance optical sensors and the launch location, and the distance measurements from the plurality of the wide-angle distance optical sensors. Once the velocity of the trajectory of the golf ball is determined, the central processing unit transmits the velocity to a display.

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for autonomous tennis assistant systems having autonomous ball machines such as an autonomous and interactive tennis ball ejection robot. Example methods include determining, by a device, the position of a first player on a tennis court, determining a first target location for a first tennis ball to be ejected toward the first player, generating a trajectory for the first tennis ball to reach the first target location, and causing ejection of the first tennis ball from the tennis ball ejection robot along the generated trajectory toward the first target location. A base station may be used to provide image data for use by the tennis ball ejection robot from one or more additional vantage points.
