Indoor training bicycle device
An indoor, stationary, bicycle training device that provides advantages over conventional designs of exercise bicycles is provided. The stationary bicycle may include a tilting/pivoting mechanism to orient the indoor bicycle to simulate descending or climbing. The indoor bicycle may include flexible and resilient frame elements to support the indoor training device to move side-to-side under some riding situations thereby simulating the side-to-side swaying motion of an outdoor bicycle under the same riding situations. The indoor bicycle may include several combinations of frame adjustments to provide configurable dimensions of the indoor bicycle to adjust the frame to properly fit the rider, which may be adjusted based on corresponding dimensions of a user's outdoor bicycle. Still other aspects of the stationary bicycle device may aid in creating an “outdoor” feeling while using the device.
FIRST REPETITION DETECTION
Controlling an exercise machine includes receiving a stream of measurements of extension of a component of an exercise machine. It further includes characterizing the stream of measurements including detecting at least one extremum having at least one extremum parameter. It further includes matching the extremum parameter with a previously determined signature associated with a user. It further includes changing an output of the exercise machine based at least in part on the match.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND MACHINE LEARNING FOR GENERATING AN ALIGNMENT PLAN CAPABLE OF ENABLING THE ALIGNING OF A USER'S BODY DURING A TREATMENT SESSION
Methods, systems, and computer-readable mediums for generating, by an artificial intelligence engine, an alignment plan capable of enabling, during a treatment session, the aligning of a user's body. The method comprises generating machine learning models trained to identify alignment plans. The method also comprises receiving treatment data that comprises a first position of the user's body, aspects of a treatment plan, and one or more attributes of the user. The method further comprises generating the alignment plan by using the machine learning models. The generating is based on at least the aspects of the treatment plan and at least one of the one or more attributes of the user. The alignment plan may comprise a target position of the user's body and one or more elements for adjusting the user's body from the first position to the target position. The method also comprises transmitting the plan to a computing device.
Distance detector
A distance detector comprising: a laser transmitter and receiver for generating a laser beam to irradiate an object and to receive return light reflected in response from the object, an image detection system for generating an image of a view, the image detection system including an objective lens for collecting light from the view, an image sensor for receiving light collected by the objective lens and for generating the image therefrom, and a digital display for displaying the image such that the digital display displays a real-time image of the view, a laser beam indicium on the digital display or a laser beam indicium generator configured to display laser beam indicium on the digital display, wherein the laser beam indicium indicates a direction of the laser beam, and a range-finding system for determining the distance to an object irradiated by the laser beam using return light and for displaying distance.
