MULTI-SPORT BIOMETRIC FEEDBACK DEVICE, SYSTEM, AND METHOD FOR ADAPTIVE COACHING WITH GYM APPARATUS
A system and method provides real-time coaching and adjustment to training. A wearable device may be configured for over-the-ear wear, which includes a speaker, a transceiver, and sensors to measure biometric activity in the user while worn during athletic performance training. The system uses a method which compares past performance to current performance and training goals to adjust a training plan during performance for maximizing training results. The system analyzes current and past performance and generates new training performance output goals in real-time based on the user's current performance. The system then transmits coaching output during a live training session instructing the user on how to adjust their performance output during a current training session. Some embodiments include connecting to smart gym apparatus which connect to the system and automatically increase/decrease resistance/speed depending on the system determining a need to change performance output for maximum gains.
Climber exercise machine
Climber exercise machine comprises a frame connected to a base through a base connection, the frame pivotable about the base connection. A right handle and a left handle are connected to respective right and left sides of the frame, the right handle moving within a first range of motion, the left handle moving within a second range of motion. A right pedal and a left pedal are connected to the respective right and left sides of the frame, the right pedal moving within a third range of motion, the left pedal moving within a forth range of motion. The right handle, the left handle, the right pedal, and the left pedal movable generally in the same plane. An angle between the frame and a plane parallel to an underside of the base is adjustable while the climber exercise machine is mounted by a user.
ADVANCED SYSTEM FOR PHYSICAL CONDITIONING AND SPORTS TRAINING
The present disclosure provides a system for conditioning and training, generally comprising a floor portion and at least one guide within a line of sight of the floor portion. The guide is configured to display training programs for a user to use to improve sports skills, such as hockey skills for example. In an embodiment, the floor portion has RFID tags to determine where a puck or other object is located. In another embodiment, the system has an apparatus to determine, verify or display a puck location. The apparatus can be either a camera or an AR unit such as glasses. Based on information provided and received, the system can tailor exercises for a user and provide enhanced statistics to improve skills.
TRAINING AID FOR SHOOTING A BASKETBALL
A training aid for shooting a basketball including a head-mounting portion configured to mount onto the head of a person shooting the basketball and a feedback-providing portion attached to, and supported by, the head mounting portion. The feedback-providing portion defining a forward-facing engagement surface extending upward from the head-mounting portion that provides tactile feedback to the person when the engagement surface is contacted by at least one of the basketball and a shooting hand of the person shooting the basketball.
DISPLAY METHOD, SWING ANALYSIS APPARATUS, SWING ANALYSIS SYSTEM, SWING ANALYSIS PROGRAM, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
A display method includes generating first analysis information related to at least one of a ball shooting direction and a ball curving form swing on the basis of a plurality of pieces of data related to a plurality of swings, output from an inertial sensor which is attached to a user or an exercise appliance swung by the user and measures the plurality of swings performed by the user, and generating a first region image on the basis of the first analysis information, in which the first region image includes a plurality of time-series region images, and the plurality of time-series region images are displayed in a coordinate system having at least two indexes as axes.
INTERACTIVE APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR MUSCLE STRENGTHENING
An interactive exercise system with apparatus and methods to optimize muscle strength for rehabilitation, to improve or maintain fitness, and to enhance the performance of athletes. The system uses an electronically controlled linear actuator to generate resistance against the muscular force exerted by the user. The system includes sensors configured to detect acceleration, speed, velocity, position, direction of movement, duration, and the force applied by the user. A control system preferably continuously monitors the sensors, and instantaneously adjusts the adaptive actuator. This provides a proportional counterforce to the user force throughout the entire range-of-motion. A display panel allows the user to interact with the system in real-time. The objective of the user is to synchronize the exercise performance with a selected target goal, by correlating the user's movement relative to a position on a display panel.
Vision training system and method of use
Devices, systems, and methods for training baseball and softball batters, to identify types of pitched balls (fast ball, curve ball, slider and changeup) and locations (strike or non-strike zone) of pitched balls in order to increase hitting accuracy A motion sensor can be triggered by the leading foot of a pitcher. The motion sensor can use cone or fan shaped sensor to detect the passage of a pitched ball from the pitcher. When the motion sensor is triggered, a signal can be sent to a black out lens that blocks the vision of a hitter being trained to identify the types and locations of the pitched balls. The training includes changing the lens from transparent to opaque at selected distances between the hitter and the pitcher. Batters can be trained to keep their eyes on the pitched balls until the ball reaches the batter. Golfers can be trained to not have to look up when their club hits the ball, where the black out lens are go opaque when the golf swing passes into the motion sensor.
Golfing Performance Assistance Device
A golfing performance assistance device for performance assistance through range finding and terrain mapping includes a housing. A power module, a microprocessor, a receiver and a memory storage unit are coupled to and positioned in the housing. The microprocessor is operationally coupled to the power module. The receiver is global positioning system enabled. A range finder, which is laser enabled, is coupled to and positioned in a frame of a pair of glasses. A display that comprises at least one eyepiece of the pair of glasses is coupled to the housing. The receiver, the memory storage unit, the range finder and the display are operationally coupled to the microprocessor. The range finder determines the distance between the user and a visualized target. The range finder, receiver and the memory storage unit are coupled to the microprocessor for determining the distance, map and slope to present on the display.
TRAINING APPARATUS, TRAINING METHOD, STORAGE MEDIUM, AND TRAINING SYSTEM
A training apparatus includes a display that displays a video image including an image of a moving object, a rotation speed acquirer that acquires a rotation speed of a pedal driven by a user, and a control circuit that changes a moving speed of the object in the video image. The control circuit controls the moving speed as follows. The moving speed of the object in the video image is increased at an acceleration α1 (>0). If an increase in the pedal rotation speed occurs after the moving speed of the object is increased, the moving speed of the object is increased at an acceleration α2 (<α1). In a case where an increase in the rotation speed of the pedal occurs after the moving speed of the object is increased at the acceleration α2, the moving speed of the object is further continuously increased at the acceleration α2.
TECHNIQUE FOR DETERMINING SLEEPING STATE OF USER
A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program that causes a computer to execute a method to display an image of a predetermined process on a body-mounted display device worn by a user, the method includes tracking a head or the like of the user, and calculating the position and the direction of the head or the like; displaying the image of the predetermined process in a virtual space of the display device; determining that the user is in the sleeping state when a candidate state, in which at least either of the calculated position and direction of the head or the like of the user is shifted by greater than or equal to a predetermined set amount, continues for greater than or equal to a predetermined set period; and performing a predetermined sleeping countermeasure process when the user is determined to be in the sleeping state.
