Exercise machine controls
A method includes receiving electronic content via a network, the electronic content comprising an exercise class, and receiving user data associated with a user participating in the exercise class using an exercise machine. The method also includes generating an executable control for a user interface based at least in part on the user data, and providing the executable control, via a display of the exercise machine, while the user is participating in the exercise class. In such a method, the executable control is operable to modify a parameter of the exercise machine while the user is participating in the exercise class.
Exercise machine
An exercise machine may include a frame, a resistance mechanism supported by the frame, first and second pull cables supported by the frame and linked to the resistance mechanism, a power rack attached to the frame, first and second handles selectively attachable to the first and second pull cable, and first and second pulleys. The power rack includes upright posts configured to have barbell holders adjustably attached thereto such that the barbell holders are configured to be adjusted in various positions between highest positions and lowest positions on the upright posts. The pulleys are configured to selectively receive the pull cables to enable the pull cables to be selectively attached to a barbell to assist or hinder a user in lifting the barbell in a combined cable and free weight workout, the pull cables decoupled from the pulleys for cable workouts.
REHABILITATION SYSTEM USING ARTIFICIALLY INTELLIGENT HORSEBACK-RIDING APPARATUS FOR HIPPOTHERAPY AND METHOD FOR OPERATING SAME
A rehabilitation system using an artificially intelligent horseback-riding apparatus for hippotherapy, the system comprising: an artificially intelligent horseback-riding apparatus which is ridable; a smartphone which can communicate with a cloud server and has installed an application for controlling the operation state of the artificially intelligent horseback-riding apparatus and operating the horseback-riding apparatus; a diagnostic device which is for diagnosing the state of a patient by means of a brain wave signal of the patient; an operating unit which is for operating the artificially intelligent horseback-riding apparatus; and a cloud server which is for storing, in the smartphone, treatment program and data, necessary for a patient treatment, and for transmitting same.
Braking and Locking System for a Treadmill
A system for a treadmill with a tread that rotates on front wheels supported on a front axle and rear wheels supported on a rear axle includes a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism comprises a first device associated with one of the front axle or the rear axle and configured to prevent rotation of respective front wheels or rear wheels in a first direction and a second device associated with another of the front axle or the rear axle and configured to prevent rotation of the respective front wheels or rear wheels in a second direction opposite the first direction. The system also includes a controller and a sensor configured to detect a user on the tread. The controller is configured to, in response to the sensor detecting no user on the manual treadmill, engage the locking mechanism to prevent movement of the front wheels and the rear wheels.
Synthetic turf with integrated impact sensors
Presented is an apparatus and system for an artificial turf system. The artificial turf system includes a backing layer having a plurality of fibers extending therefrom. The artificial turf system further includes a plurality of impact sensors located at least partially on, in, and/or beneath the backing layer, wherein the plurality of impact sensors are operable to detect a force or pressure applied to the backing layer.
Indoor bicycle training 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.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING INDIRECT MOVEMENT FEEDBACK DURING SENSORIMOTOR FUNCTION REHABILITATION AND ENHANCEMENT
A rehabilitation feedback system is used during rehabilitation of one or more body appendages of a user. The system includes four finger tracking elements and a thumb tracking element supported for movement relative to one another so as to allow a user to perform a gripping motion when the elements are coupled to the fingers and thumb of a user. A biasing member provides a resistance force acting to urge each tracking element towards a starting position thereof. A visual barrier is adapted to hide the hand of the user at a first side of the visual barrier from direct visual sight by the user at a second side of the visual barrier. A sensor at the first side of the visual barrier detects movements of the tracking elements and communicates with an indicator element detectable by the user from a second side of the visual barrier.
MAT, METHOD AND PROGRAM FOR MEASURING GOLF POSTURE CAPABLE OF MEASURING GOLF CLUB SWING SPEED
Disclosed is a mat, method, and program for measuring a golf posture that are capable of measuring a golf club swing speed. The golf posture measuring mat capable includes a sensor unit sensing a pressure corresponding to a golf posture of a user and a trajectory of a head of a golf club, a control unit analyzing the golf posture of the user and a swing speed of the golf club based on a sensed signal of the sensor unit, a display unit displaying analysis data analyzed by the control unit, and a storage unit storing the analysis data and reference data. A plurality of sensors in the sensor unit are arranged one-dimensionally or two-dimensionally on a mat plate. Each of the plurality of sensors includes a single sensor including one among a capacitive pressure sensor, a resistive pressure sensor, and a hybrid pressure sensor, or includes a composite sensor including two or more among the capacitive pressure sensor, the resistive pressure sensor, and the hybrid pressure sensor.
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR IMPLEMENTING DYNAMIC TREATMENT ENVIRONMENTS BASED ON PATIENT INFORMATION
A system that comprises a memory device storing instructions, and a processing device communicatively coupled to the memory device. The processing device executes the instructions to: receive user data obtained from records associated with a user; generate a modified treatment plan based on the user data; and send, to a treatment apparatus accessible to the user, the modified treatment plan, wherein the modified treatment plan causes the treatment apparatus to update at least one operational aspect of the treatment apparatus, and update at least one operational aspect of at least one other device communicatively coupled to the treatment apparatus.
