The present invention relates to an apparatus for and a method of controlling the travel and positioning of a golf bag carrier and assisting the golfer during his or her round of golf. The carrier could be a golf bag carrier of the kind typically driven by a golfer, a separate golf bag cart or a combination of both carriers. The inventive apparatus and method described herein controls the movement of the golf bag carrier without the need for the golfer to control all of the movement of the carrier and/or to walk with a corresponding device. Further, carriers that include the physical elements of the present invention have access to various details about the golf course, its surroundings and the golfer and can use information provided from such physical elements to navigate the golf course and provide the golfer with useful information that assist in the golfer's play.

Exosuit systems and methods according to various embodiments are described herein. The exosuit system can be a suit that is worn by a wearer on the outside of his or her body. It may be worn under the wearer's normal clothing, over their clothing, between layers of clothing, or may be the wearer's primary clothing itself. The exosuit may be assistive, as it physically assists the wearer in performing particular activities, or can provide other functionality such as communication to the wearer through physical expressions to the body, engagement of the environment, or capturing of information from the wearer.

An exercise apparatus includes a frame body, two driving levers, two pedals, a linking device and at least one resistance device. The driving levers are pivotally connected to two side frames of the frame body, respectively. The pedals are connected to the two driving levers, respectively. The linking device is connected the driving levers so as to lead the driving levers to be swung reciprocally and simultaneously. The resistance device is driven by one of the driving levers so as to generate a magnetic resistance.

The present disclosure provides an assistive fitness system and method, and fitness equipment. The assistive fitness system includes a thermal imaging device configured to receive an infrared signal from a human body and perform thermal imaging processing based on the infrared signal to generate a human body image, a comparing device configured to compare the human body image with a reference image of a standard fitness movement to generate a comparison result, and a display device configured to display the human body image and the comparison result of the human body image and the reference image.

An apparatus and method for repetitively training a golf swing is disclosed. In some embodiments of the present apparatus, foot placement guides are provided to align a golfer's stance relative to a golf ball on a tee. Motion and other data capture create a swing profile for the golfer's swing, which is compared to the swing of a golf Pro, thus giving swing feedback to the golfer. The apparatus automatically resets the ball position after the swing, allowing the golfer to repeat the swing based on the received feedback while isolating other variables (such as inaccurate resetting of foot position).

Systems and methods for systems and methods for improvement of a person's performance and well-being by determining and maintaining an orthopedically optimized position of the person's jaw. In one embodiment, TENS is applied to the patient's jaw muscles to relax and deprogram the muscles, the person's TMJs are evaluated and reduced, and neural shear in the patient's upper cervical spine is minimized by orthopedically aligning the patient's head and neck (CC complex), thereby causing the patient's jaw to move toward an orthopedically optimized position (CM complex). A bite registration of the upper and lower jaws is taken, with molars and premolars at least 2 millimeters apart, the front teeth not touching, and preferably a vertical index of 17-21 millimeters. Molds of the persons upper and lower teeth may be positioned using the bite registration, and an orthopedic alignment device (OAD) may be formed between the molds.

A dance training device, including: a training unit; a measuring unit; and a connection rod. The training unit is connected to the measuring unit via the connection rod. The training unit includes a base, an elastic balancing plate, and a self-balancing airbag disposed between the elastic balancing plate and the base. The base includes an upper surface and a balancing trough disposed on the upper surface. The self-balancing airbag is located in the balancing trough. The measuring unit includes a first support frame, a second support frame, a third support frame, self-balancing universal wheel assemblies, and an angle measurement instrument. The second support frame and the third support frame are vertically disposed relative to the ground, and each includes a first end and a second end. Two ends of the first support frame are joined to the first ends of the second support frame and the third support frame, respectively.

Methods and systems for using a robot to provide feedback to a user when the user is engaged in a physical activity includes detecting presence of the user in a geo-location. The user is identified and associated with the robot. User activity in the geo-location is monitored and when the robot detects the user is performing an exercise from an exercise routine, the robot is positioned to one or more positions proximate to the user so as to capture image of a posture held by the user while performing the exercise. The captured image is analyzed and feedback provided to the user to allow the user to improve their posture.

The disclosure is related to a method and a system for posture correction adapted to one sporting equipment. In the method, a force distribution history responsive to force or pressure data detected by one or more pressure sensors mounted on a surface of the sporting equipment over a period of time is firstly obtained. The pressure value is recorded in the force distribution history once it is detected that a pressure value exceeds a threshold, and the force distribution history is compared with a selected force pattern model so as to obtain a deviation distribution model. The deviation distribution model renders a correction data for the posture correction.

A swimming aid being configured to increase a user's buoyancy in the water. The swimming aid has a supporting structure with a back float. The supporting structure is designed to secure the swimming aid to a user's upper body. The back float is tiltableseen in useabout a transverse axis connected to the supporting structure. The tilting movement of the back float to the supporting structure enables the user to obtain an inclined, more vertical posture in the water, which will improve the user's ability to keep their head above the surface of the water and also intuitively encourages the user to stretch out their hands to make a supportive movement with the hands in the water. Thus, the swimming aid increases water safety and at the same time promotes swimming skills.
