System and method for evaluation, detection, conditioning, and treatment of neurological functioning and conditions
A system and method for evaluation, detection, conditioning, and treatment of neurological functioning and conditions which uses data obtained while a person is engaged in simultaneously in a range of primary physical tasks combined with defined types of associative activity, such as listening, reading, speaking, mathematics, logic puzzles, navigation of a virtual environment, recall of past stimuli, etc. The data from the physical and associative activities are combined to generate a composite functioning score visualization indicating the relative functioning of areas aspects of neurological functioning; including those in which deficiencies may be present, which are early indicators of possible neurological conditions. Through algorithmic recommendations combined with expert and user input, a conditioning regimen targeting neurological aspects of interest paired with periodic testing allows the user to track their progress in these areas over time.
Ball retrieval system and method
A tennis ball retriever for retrieving a tennis ball on and about a tennis court and for controllably releasing the ball includes a front-end ball collector having two spaced-apart blades defining a ball collection space. The retriever includes a means for gripping and securing a ball positioned at the fore end, and one or more detents for retaining the collected ball in the collection space until a programmed or manually-directed release toward a target location such as a tennis baseline. The retriever includes a processor-controller for controlling and directing the retriever during a retrieval session. The retriever may be remote-controlled such as by voice commands.
Exercise bike
An exercise bike operable while remaining stationary on a support surface. The exercise bike includes a bicycle frame with a pedal assembly coupled to a clutch mechanism that is movable between an unlocked state in which the pedal assembly drives a wheel in a first rotational direction and rotates relative to the wheel in a second rotational direction, and a locked state in which the pedal assembly is rotationally fixed to the wheel to drive the wheel in the first rotational direction and the second rotational direction, and a handlebar assembly. The handlebar assembly is coupled to the bicycle frame and includes a handlebar and a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism is moveable between an unlocked position in which the handlebar is allowed to rotate about an axis, and a locked position in which the handlebar is restricted from rotating about the axis. A control module may move the locking mechanism and the clutch mechanism between their respective locked and unlocked states.
System and method for providing golf information for golfer
A system for providing golf information, the system which includes a green photographing unit for photographing an image of an area including a green on a golf course and communicatively connected to a communication network to transmit green image data to an outside, a golfer terminal that is carried by a golfer on the golf course and communicatively connected to a communication network to transmit golfer position data to the outside, and an information providing server that is communicatively connected to the communication network to generate golf information using the green image data and the golfer position data and transmit the generated golf information to the golfer terminal.
System and method for a sports-coaching platform
A system and method is disclosed for a surround-perspective motion annotation comprising: an image/video input for capturing and/or parsing into at least one image frame of a subject performing at least one motion from each of at least three perspectives; a vector generating module for generating a test vector or wire mesh corresponding to a pose of the subject in each of the captured/parsed frame from each of the perspectives; and an annotation module for inputting a drawing imposed on the test vector/mesh for a visual contrast against any one of a feature from the test vector/mesh from any one of the perspectives. Further disclosed embodiments include for a system and method for generating multi-perspective, color-coded deviations of a subject from a reference (color wheel). Further embodiments include for a system and method for generating an optimal motion signature (OMS) for the subject based on his or her generated color wheel.
TRACKING A MOVING SPORTS OBJECT IN VARIED ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
Systems, methods and computer-readable media are provided for determining an effective altitude in relation to a moving sports object. In some examples, a method includes determining respective values for an air temperature, an air pressure, and a relative humidity of an environment of interest. Based on the determined respective values of the air temperature, the air pressure, and the relative humidity, an air density for the environment of interest is calculated to derive a first air density value. A second air density value is derived for a reference environment. An absolute value of a difference between the first and second air densities is compared against a preset comparison value and, based on the comparison being equal to or smaller than the preset comparison value, an output including an indicator of the effective altitude is generated.
CABLE REFORMER
The present disclosure describes an exercise device including a first base and a second base. The first base includes a pair of support handles rotatably connected to the first base, a pair of cable arms rotatably connected to the first base, wherein the pair of cable arms include a first engagement mechanism, an electronic resistance device connected to a pair of cable handles via a pair of cables that pass through a pair of channels defined by the pair of cable arms; and a seat. The second base includes a beam affixed to and connecting the first base and the second base. The beam includes a track, a backrest carriage that is slidably engaged with the track and includes a second and third engagement mechanism, and a backrest rotatably connected to an end of the backrest carriage.
ADJUSTABLE DUMBBELL SYSTEM
An adjustable dumbbell includes weight plates that are selectively connectable to a handle. Unselected weight plates are secured to a cradle. To secure the unselected weight plates to the cradle, a latch in the cradle is inserted into an engagement surface notch in the weight plate. The unselected weight plates are individually actuated based on which weight plates are selected and connected to the handle.
Multi-mode acceleration-based athleticism measurement system
A multi-mode athleticism movement measurement system includes an athlete-borne acceleration sensor and an athleticism processing device to determine athleticism information based upon one or more timing measurements from the athlete-borne acceleration sensor, the athleticism information corresponding to any of multiple athleticism measurement modes available on athleticism processing device and selectable by a user. A data link between the athlete-borne acceleration sensor and the athleticism rating processing device transmits the one or more timing measurements from the athlete-borne acceleration sensor to the athleticism rating processing device.
Apparatus, systems, and methods for gathering and processing biometric and biomechanical data
Apparatus, systems, and methods are provided for measuring and analyzing movements of a body and for communicating information related to such body movements over a network. In certain embodiments, a system gathers biometric and biomechanical data relating to positions, orientations, and movements of various body parts of a user performed during sports activities, physical rehabilitation, or military or law enforcement activities. The biometric and biomechanical data can be communicated to a local and/or remote interface, which uses digital performance assessment tools to provide a performance evaluation to the user. The performance evaluation may include a graphical representation (e.g., a video), statistical information, and/or a comparison to another user and/or instructor. In some embodiments, the biometric and biomechanical data is communicated wirelessly to one or more devices including a processor, display, and/or data storage medium for further analysis, archiving, and data mining. In some embodiments, the device includes a cellular telephone.
