Reflective video display apparatus for interactive training and demonstration and methods of using same
A method includes capturing real-time video of a user participating in a first exercise class, using an Internet of Things (IoT) device. The real-time video is displayed concurrently with video of an instructor via a display in communication with the IoT device, to provide a visual comparison of the user to the instructor. The method also includes analyzing the real-time video to determine a performance of the user, and causing display of a warning, via the display, in response to determining the performance of the user. Biometric data associated with the user is received at the IoT device from a wearable device, at multiple times. Heart rates of the user are identified based on the biometric data, and scores based on the heart rates are identified and displayed. A recommendation for a second exercise class is determined based on a profile of the user and displayed via the display.
VIDEO REBROADCASTING WITH MULTIPLEXED COMMUNICATIONS AND DISPLAY VIA SMART MIRRORS, AND SMART WEIGHT INTEGRATION
A method includes causing display, during a first time period and via a first set of multiple smart mirrors, of live video depicting at least one user associated with the first set of multiple smart mirrors, without displaying a workout video. The method also includes causing display, during a second time period following and mutually exclusive of the first time period, and via a second set of multiple smart mirrors, of a workout video and a representation of at least one user associated with the second set of smart mirrors. The method also includes causing display, during a third time period following and mutually exclusive of the second time period, and via a third set of multiple smart mirrors, of live video depicting at least one user associated with the third set of multiple smart mirrors.
VIDEO REBROADCASTING WITH MULTIPLEXED COMMUNICATIONS AND DISPLAY VIA SMART MIRRORS, AND SMART WEIGHT INTEGRATION
A method includes causing display, during a first time period and via a first set of multiple smart mirrors, of live video depicting at least one user associated with the first set of multiple smart mirrors, without displaying a workout video. The method also includes causing display, during a second time period following and mutually exclusive of the first time period, and via a second set of multiple smart mirrors, of a workout video and a representation of at least one user associated with the second set of smart mirrors. The method also includes causing display, during a third time period following and mutually exclusive of the second time period, and via a third set of multiple smart mirrors, of live video depicting at least one user associated with the third set of multiple smart mirrors.
Golf club fitting apparatus and method of golf club fitting
A golf club fitting apparatus and a method for fitting using the apparatus are provided. The golf club fitting apparatus may be attached to a golf club and provide fitting information including effective lie angle and effective loft angle. The golf club fitting apparatus includes a lower surface that contacts a butt end of a grip, an upper surface opposite the lower surface, and a side surface connecting the upper and lower surfaces. An angle indicator is disposed at a predetermined angle relative to a shaft axis of the golf club so as to rest in a neutral position when the golf club is in a normal address position.
EXERCISE STORAGE SYSTEM
An exercise storage system includes a storage compartment including at least one storage element. Exercise equipment is stored on the storage elements. A door is connected to the storage compartment with a hinge such that the viewing angle of the door is adjustable. A display on the door includes a backlit display and a mirrored display. A user may select exercise equipment from the storage compartment and perform an exercise activity while viewing the display.
EXERCISE SYSTEM DISPLAY DEVICE SUPPORT
An exercise system includes an exercise system display including magnetic material and a displayable area. A support device is magnetically connected to the exercise system display to support a mobile device. The mobile device covers a portion of the displayable area. The mobile device is movable so that a user can move the mobile device to a convenient viewing location.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR REPOSITIONABLE MINIMALLY INTRUSIVE DISPLAYS
A system includes a minimally intrusive display system (MIDS) configured to be disposed on an eyewear. The MIDS includes a battery system configured to provide power for the MIDS, a display system, and a processor communicatively coupled to the display system and configured to display information to an eye of a wearer of the eyewear via the display system. The display system is disposed inside a space bounded by a first vertical line that bisects the eyewear and a right line or a left line that extends no more than 40 mm from the first vertical line.
Video streaming with multiplexed communications and display via smart mirrors
A processor-implemented method includes receiving a request that specifies a workout performed at a first time, a list of users, a second time after the first time, an overlay to be displayed during a rebroadcast associated with the request, and a skill level of the workout. The request is compared to calendar data, and a session acknowledgment message is sent to the compute device of the first user based on the comparison. An invitation message is sent to compute devices of a second user and a third user, identifying the second time, and invitation responses are received from the second user and the third user. In response to the invitation responses, a video of the workout is rebroadcast at the second time, to a smart mirror of the first user, a smart mirror of the second user and a smart mirror of the third user.
REFLECTIVE VIDEO DISPLAY APPARATUS FOR INTERACTIVE TRAINING AND DEMONSTRATION AND METHODS OF USING SAME
A method includes capturing, using an Internet of Things (IoT) device, real-time video of a user performing an exercise associated with a first exercise class. Real-time video of the user is displayed, via a display, concurrently with video of an instructor, to provide a visual comparison of the user to the instructor. Image analysis of the real-time video of the user is performed to determine a performance of the user, and a representation thereof is displayed. Biometric data associated with the user is received at the IoT device from a wearable device at multiple points in time. Heart rates are identified based on the biometric data, and scores based on the heart rates are displayed via the display. A recommendation for a second exercise class different from the first exercise class is determined based on a profile of the user, and displayed via the display.
REFLECTIVE VIDEO DISPLAY APPARATUS FOR INTERACTIVE TRAINING AND DEMONSTRATION AND METHODS OF USING SAME
A smart mirror can show live or recorded streaming video of an instructor performing a workout in a package that is attractive and unobtrusive enough to hang in a living room. The smart mirror includes a mirror surface with a fully reflecting section and a partially reflecting section. A display behind the partially reflecting section shows the video when the smart mirror is on and is almost invisible when the smart mirror is off. The smart mirror also has a speaker, a microphone, and a camera to enable a user to view the video content and interact with the instructor. The smart mirror may connect to the user's smart phone, a peripheral device (e.g., a Bluetooth speaker) to augment user experience, a biometric sensor to provide biometric data to assess user performance, and/or a network router to connect the smart mirror to a content provider, an instructor, and/or other users.
