An adjustable laser-sensor paired system for creating or replicating a desired swing form includes a laser device and a sensor device. The laser device has a laser which emits a laser beam and a mounting device which attaches the laser device to an object. The orientation of the laser is adjustable. The sensor device has an optical linear position sensor for detecting the laser beam of the laser device and a display with LEDs for providing feedback and user interface. With the system and method, one or more checkpoints for the form of a desired swing can be created at a selected point in the swing path, which may then be used as practice reference guides to check whether the user is correctly replicating the desired swing.

Systems and methods for a ball game comprising a playing field having a modified soccer goal wherein said goal having a foldable stand placed above its center holding a rigid basket and at least one playing ball wherein said ball is spherical in shape and having extruded ribs, wherein said ball have at least one sensor is embedded in it to allow detection of said ball location in said field.

A golf training aid (10) that is arranged to he attached to one of the front and back legs (36) of a golfer (30). The golf training aid comprising a monitoring arrangement (14) for monitoring progressive movement of the back leg towards the front leg of the golfer; and an alarm arrangement (16) for alerting the golfer when displacement of the back leg towards the front leg has reached a predetermined position, to enable the golfer to make necessary bodily movements to swing a club that is held by the golfer.

A punch-and-cycle exercise device is described. The device includes a cycling mechanism, a frame to which a punch-pad is attached, a plurality of delineated target zones arranged on the punch pad, a sensor unit that may include an impact sensor, an accelerometer, and a single or plurality of hall effect sensors, each communicatively connected to the target zones. A control unit communicatively connects with the sensors, a punch-pad mounted camera, and a display. Gloves with built in magnets and/or unique markings/visual identifiers interact with the sensors and/or camera and provide data to the controller to track user success at responding with correct puncing form to illuminated and sequenced punching programs while cycling. Output can be displayed locally or on any paired device.

Implemented is an interval timer with pacer functionality (referred to herein as “interval pacer” for short), enabling a user to work out to a given pace and then automatically switches to a resting period when the pre-set pace is complete. The interval pacer may be an instantiated application on a user’s computing device, such as a smartphone, smartwatch, head-mounted display (HMD) device, etc., or may be a standalone application instantiated on a dedicated computing device specifically designed for the interval pacer application. The interval pacer application is adapted to enhance previous interval timer applications by providing a customizable pacer option which is virtually a fully customizable solution for a user to have an individualized exercise plan. In addition, the interoperation of the pacer with the interval timer enriches workout sessions by pushing the user to stick with the user-set pace for the user-designated period.

A golf bag transport device that is configured to assist in the transportation of a golf bag for a user during a round of play of golf. The present invention includes a base platform wherein the base platform includes drive wheels on opposing sides thereof. The base platform has a vertical golf bag support member extending upward therefrom. The vertical golf bag support member is further constructed to be collapsible. Secured to the vertical golf bag support member are horizontal support members configured to assist in retention of a golf bag. Opposing auxiliary wheels are located proximate the front edge and rear edge of the base platform. The auxiliary wheels are configured to assist in maintenance of the position of the base platform while traversing a sloped surface. Optical sensors are employed to provide collision avoidance and a gyroscopic balancing unit provides self-balancing of the device during use.

According to one example, a training device includes a first set of time of flight sensors (ToF) positioned to face in a first direction, a plurality of addressable red, green, blue light emitting diodes (RGB LEDs) positioned to face in the first direction, and a second set of ToF sensors positioned to face in a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction. The training device includes and/or is in communication with one or more processors that can determine a training program for a user that includes visual signals that represent a plurality of actions for performance by the user. Also, for each of the plurality of actions, the training device can cause a first set of the plurality of addressable RGB LEDs to provide a visual indication of the corresponding action for performance by the user, and detect whether the user performed the corresponding action.

A basketball system comprising a court system having shot locations defined by shot location lines on the play surface and the shot areas defined by shot area lines on the play surface, and a goal system comprising a respective backboard suspended above the play surface at each opposing farthest end of the play surface, an instrumentation system comprises sensors to detect activities within the boundary line of the court system, and a respective penalty box for each team in which players, coaches, and referees can serve a penalty assessed for an infraction.

A portable apparatus includes an exercise-measurement circuitry that measures exercise-related measurement data related to a user carrying out an exercise, a communication circuitry configured to provide the portable apparatus with wireless communication capability, and a processing circuitry configured to a perform operations. The operations include receiving the exercise-related measurement data from the exercise-measurement circuitry, receiving configuration data from an external user interface apparatus over a bidirectional wireless communication connection established through the communication circuitry and capable of transferring payload data to both directions, processing the exercise-related measurement data according to the received exercise-related parameters in order to obtain advanced exercise-related data, and communicating the advanced exercise-related measurement data to the user interface apparatus over the bidirectional wireless communication connection.

Swimming goggles have a left-eye covering and a right-eye covering, each having a corresponding transparent window that defines a field of view and each further having a seal extending between the transparent window and the swimmer's face and formed to exclude water. A near-eye display is in signal communication with an image processor and forms a virtual image in the left- or right-eye field of view.
