INTERACTIVE PERFORMANCE FEEDBACK FOR EXERCISE EQUIPMENT
20170319904 · 2017-11-09 ·

A method and device for providing performance feedback to a user during a session of using exercise equipment including measuring user input during the session using at least one sensor to gather sensor data, and transmitting the sensor data to a processing device. The sensor data is evaluated to determine at least one of a force metric, a frequency metric, and an accuracy metric. The at least one of the force metric, the frequency metric and the accuracy metric are compared to at least one predetermined performance goal. Audio and/or visual feedback is provided to the user based on the comparison of the at least one of the force metric, the frequency metric, and the accuracy metric with the at least one predetermined performance goal. The audio feedback includes varying a musical playback in at least one of speed, volume, and pitch.

APPARATUS, SYSTEM, AND METHOD FOR TESTING AND EXERCISING THE PELVIC FLOOR MUSCULATURE
20220226187 · 2022-07-21 ·

An apparatus for testing and exercising pelvic floor musculature, the apparatus comprising an elongate housing adapted for a pelvic floor aperture. The housing accommodates an oscillator and an accelerometer connected to a signal processor configured for communicating signals representative of values read from the accelerometer. A result is calculated from an applied oscillation and a response measured, and used for characterizing the musculature. In one embodiment the frequency resulting in the greatest response from the musculature is measured, and this frequency is applied during exercise.

Speed tracker

The present invention is a device for measuring and displaying the speed, force, rate and/or frequency that an object or a body part strikes a target. The present invention includes an impact sensor, transmitter, computer and display. The sensor includes layers of alternating conductive and non-conductive material that are wrapped around the target. The conductive layers of fabric generate electrical impulses when they come into contact with each other through perforations in the non-conductive material. These signals are interpreted by the computer to derive information about the speed of the strike against the target.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMPACT POSITION DETECTION OF IMPACT SPORT EQUIPMENT

A method and an apparatus for impact position detection of impact sport equipment are provided. The method includes following steps: retrieving a vibration signal generated by a vibration sensor detecting vibration caused by impact of impact sport equipment and a ball; performing a spectrum analysis on the vibration signal to obtain eigenfrequencies of the vibration signal in a frequency domain; and calculating at least one piece of characteristic information by using an amplitude of each eigenfrequency and inputting the same into a prediction model established in advance by using machine learning, so as to estimate an impact position of the ball on the impact sport equipment, in which the prediction model is trained by using characteristic information of multiple vibration signals and corresponding impact positions.

Squash ball launching machine

An automatic ball launcher includes a ball feed control system that includes a meter wheel with radially-spaced ribs or grooves to selectively block and pass balls to the flywheels of the launcher. The meter wheel rotates to selectively block and release a single ball to pass at a time. The controller of the launcher can be programmed to stop the meter wheel when a ball has been metered by monitoring the current at peak of the motor driving the meter wheel. A meter-event can be determined to have occurred when the current of the drive motor drops to a trough by a pre-set magnitude following a rise to a peak value. A remote control can be provided for the user to operate the launching machine and adjust a plurality of parameters.
