Speaker Integrated Weight Bag Exercising Apparatus and Method of Use
The present invention relates to a novel weight bag exercising apparatus configured to be worn like a backpack while performing an exercise. The bag or backpack features a compartment for removably storing a weighted substance so that an exercising user can perform an intense and effective exercising regime. The compartment is formed by a front panel, a rear panel, a bottom panel, and a pair of side panels. A Bluetooth speaker is disposed on the outer surface of the front panel for playing music wherein the music is received wirelessly from a paired audio device. For wearing the bag like a backpack, a pair of padded and adjustable shoulder straps are provided that can be used by a user to wear the bag during exercising.
Image-stream windowing system and method
An image-stream windowing method includes capturing, with a camera located at a fixed position and having a fixed field of view, a high-resolution image stream of an object that moves during said capturing. The high-resolution image stream includes a sequence of high-resolution frames. The method also includes determining, for each high-resolution frame of the sequence of high-resolution frames, a respective window, of a sequence of windows corresponding to the sequence of high-resolution frames, that encloses the object within said each high-resolution frame. The size and location of the respective window are determined based at least on the fixed position, the fixed field of view, and a position of the object. The method also includes generating a low-resolution image stream from the high-resolution image stream by cropping said each high-resolution frame with its respective window.
EXERCISE ASSISTING DEVICE
This exercise assisting device (1) is provided with a grip member (3) that can be gripped by a hand and that extends in a tubular shape or in a columnar shape. The grip member (3) has a recessed part (31) configured so that, when the device is gripped by the hand, only a portion at which the middle finger is placed is recessed.
ENCLOSURES FOR RUNNING PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
The present disclosure provides a system for determining running performances using an enclosure. The system includes a running surface within an enclosure. The system can also include sensors, audio devices, display devices, and lighting devices along the length of the running surface. The system can further include user-wearable devices having mobile sensors. Additionally, the system can include a processor and a storage device storing program instructions that control the system to trigger a running performance and log data of the running performance received from the sensors and the mobile sensors. Additionally, the system can generate audiovisual cues using the audio, display, and lighting devices.
Athletic performance sensing and/or tracking systems and methods
Athletic performance sensing and/or tracking systems include components for measuring or sensing athletic performance data and/or for storing and/or displaying desired information associated with the athletic performance to the user (or others). Such systems can allow users a wide variety of options in creating workouts, selecting and presenting media content during the athletic performance, etc., e.g., to help keep users entertained and motivated. In some instances, user feedback may be used, optionally in combination with objective data relating to a workout, to control features of the workout routine, to control the music or other media content selected and/or presented, and/or to control features of future workout routines and/or the presented media content.
Devices and method for increasing running performance
A running device and method of using the device are disclosed. The device may include a moveable material within an inner chamber of the running device's housing. In operation, a running device may be held in each hand and the runner may thrust both hands downward prior to landing and quickly bring the devices to a vertical stop after landing. Bringing the devices to a vertical stop may cause the moveable material to collide with the housing and increase the force exerted by the runner on the ground. A delay component may delay the peak force exerted by the material against the housing so that the translation of that force to the ground coincides with the peak force that the runner would have exerted against the ground in the absence of the devices.
METHOD OF GAIT EVALUATION AND TRAINING WITH DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SYSTEM
There is described an integrated unweighted gait training system having an unweighting system comprising a computer controller; a gait measurement system in communication with the controller; and a display in communication with the computer controller adapted and configured to provide real-time feedback to a user of the integrated unweighting gait training system. The unweighting system may be a differential air pressure (DAP) unweighting system or a non-DAP unweighting system.
WALKING TRAINING APPARATUS AND STATE DETERMINATION METHOD
A walking training apparatus 1 includes a leg robot 2 attached to a leg of a walking trainee, a motor 261 configured to rotationally drive a knee joint 22 of the leg robot 2, a control unit 332 configured to control the motor 261 so that the motor 261 rotationally drives the knee joint 22 in a leg-idling period in a gait motion of the walking trainee, a motor torque detection unit 262 configured to detect a motor torque, the motor torque being a torque generated by the motor 261, and a determination unit 333 configured to determine whether or not the walking trainee is in a spasticity state or a rigidity state by using a value of the motor torque detected in the leg-idling period by the motor torque detection unit 262.
SMART DEVICE
An Internet of Thing (IoT) device includes a body with a processor, a camera and a wireless transceiver coupled to the processor.
Physical exercise training techniques
A swimming pool cover assembly including a frame, at least one cover, and an adjustment means. The frame including at least one inflatable portion and an interconnected three-dimensional (3D) lattice of inflatable straight tubes. The at least one cover is supported by the frame to define an exercise chamber including at least part of a swimming pool. The adjustment means reduces an oxygen content of air in the exercise chamber compared with air external the exercise chamber. The exercise chamber has elongate sidewalls.
