System and method for using drag force data to optimize athletic performance
A method provides for optimizing at least one exercise. The method includes receiving first image data. The first image data includes first pixel data associated with the user performing the exercise at a first time. The method includes receiving second image data. The second image data includes second pixel data associated with the user performing the exercise at a second time. The method includes determining, based on a difference between the first pixel data and the second pixel data, deviation data associated with a profile of the user. The method includes generating outline data based on the deviation data and corresponding to a frontal area of the user. The method may also include determining drag coefficient data based on the frontal area of the user. The method includes determining, based on the outline data and the drag coefficient data, drag force data associated with the user using the exercise device.
Hyperthermic conditioning capsule
A self-contained, hyperthermic conditioning unit and selectively controllable environment for exercising. The unit comprises a base portion having a bed therein and a removable cover connected to the base portion to enclose a personal compartment within the unit. One or more heating elements provide heat to the personal compartment and one more pieces of physical exercise equipment are provided within the personal compartment.
Treadmill having attachment module
A treadmill may include two separate left and right belts rotating around two sets of rollers, four legs having an adjustable height via air suspension to customize an inclination of the treadmill, a thermoelectric assembly, a fragrance assembly having a rotating fragrance cartridge to emit various smells toward a user of the treadmill, a display on which exercise programs are played, and an attachment module having a dispensing tray on which treats are dispensed. A handle of the treadmill may have a sensor to sense a height and front-rear position, and a belt divider provided between the left and right belts may have position or proximity sensors to sense a left-right position. An inclination of the treadmill may be automatically adjusted according to positions detected by the sensors, and the fragrance assembly, attachment module, and inclination may be automatically operated in accordance with an exercise program played on the display.
WORKOUT MAT
Embodiments described herein relate to systems and methods for a connected workout mat to create sensory experiences. A connected mat has at least one input device to receive input data and at least one output device that synchronises with content through a digital content platform. A hardware processor generates digital output for the digital content platform or physical sensory output at the connected mat based on the input data from the connected mat and instructor input. Embodiments described herein relate to systems and methods for a workout mat with at least one heating region to create sensory experiences based on input data.
Rowing system and method
Among other things, a rowing technology includes a first rowing machine having an electromagnetic brake providing a resistance to a rower of the machine in each rowing stroke of a series of rowing strokes of the rower An electronic controller causes the resistance of the electromagnetic brake to vary over each rowing stroke in a profile that emulates resistance to which another rower in a shell on water or on a second rowing machine is subjected in each rowing stroke of a corresponding series of rowing strokes.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR HAPTIC SIMULATION IN INCLINE EXERCISE DEVICES
A haptic simulation exercise device includes a frame, a base supporting the frame, and an incline motor. The incline motor is configured to move the frame relative to the base to provide haptic simulation during a workout routine. An actuator moves the frame faster than the incline motor to simulate outdoor conditions during a workout routine.
Exercise device
An exercise device is provided with a first element disposed at a first side and a second element disposed at a second side. The first element includes gripping features to prevent skidding or sliding of exercise device when first element is abutting a surface. The second element includes sliding features to facilitate sliding of exercise device when second element is abutting the surface. Thus, when an exercise practitioner desires to use the exercise device to prevent movement of a particular body part against the surface, the practitioner places the first element against the surface. Conversely, when the exercise practitioner desires to use the exercise device to facilitate movement of a particular body part against the surface, the practitioner places the second element against the surface. The exercise device further includes an insert which may be removed and heated or cooled to provide heating or cooling pad/pack to a body part.
PROTECTIVE HEADBAND
The present disclosure relates to a protective garment, such as a protective headband, such as a protective headband that may reduce the risk of head injuries for football (soccer) players by reducing the impact of blows, falls as well as being hit by and heading to the ball.
Posture training device and method of using the same
A posture training device is provided. The posture training device can include a belt with a body contacting portion having a body contact surface extending between a first edge and a second edge, an adjustable and releasable securing mechanism adapted to secure the posture training device around a midsection of a wearer. The posture training device can also include a vertebrae contact portion having a concave surface extending between a first end and a second end, and the concave surface can have a predetermined depth, such that the concave surface is configured to contact and support at least one vertebrae. A method of utilizing the posture training device to train the posture in a person is also provided.
WATER SPRAYING DEVICE
A water spraying device is disclosed. The water spraying device includes a main housing, an actuator arm, and a sprayer assembly. The main housing is to be mounted to a basketball net. The actuator arm includes a proximal end pivotally mounted to the main housing and a distal end extending outwards from the main housing. The actuator arm is biased to a neutral position and pivotable to a depressed position responsive to downward force applied to the distal end of the actuator arm by a basketball. The sprayer assembly is mounted to the main housing, and includes a valve having a hose adapter on an inlet and a nozzle on an outlet of the valve. The valve is triggered to open responsive to the actuator arm pivoting to the depressed position.
