Apparatus and method for learning and enhancing visuomotor skills
An apparatus includes a training area in the form of an enclosed space in which light levels can be controlled, at least one physical element related to a task for which an individual is to be trained, and a lighting arrangement. The lighting arrangement generates a background luminance level in the training area sufficient to cause the vision system of the individual to function in the mesopic or low photopic range of vision, and the physical elements are themselves illuminated by an illumination means. The luminance level of the physical elements is greater than the background luminance level.
Apparatus for illuminating outdoor bag toss game
An illuminated cornhole platform comprising a top portion, at least two side portions, a front portion, a hole portion, at least one leg portion, and a back portion. The cornhole platform is illuminated by an inner illuminating string outlining the hole portion of the cornhole platform. The cornhole platform is further illuminated by an outer illuminating string outlining the outer perimeter of the cornhole platform.
Control system for a rehabilitation and exercise electromechanical device
An electromechanical device for rehabilitation includes pedals coupled to radially-adjustable couplings, an electric motor coupled to the pedals via the radially-adjustable couplings, and a control system including a processing device operatively coupled to the electric motor. The processing device configured to, responsive to a first trigger condition occurring, control the electric motor to operate in a passive mode by independently driving the radially-adjustable couplings rotationally coupled to the pedals. The processing device also configured to, responsive to a second trigger condition occurring, control the electric motor to operate in an active-assisted mode by measuring revolutions per minute of the radially-adjustable couplings, and cause the electric motor to drive the radially-adjustable couplings when the measured revolutions per minute satisfy a threshold condition, and responsive to a third trigger condition occurring, control the electric motor to operate in a resistive mode by providing resistance to rotation of the radially-adjustable couplings.
Wearable device to teach, correct, and monitor a movement pattern of an exercise in three dimensions
Provided is a wearable device to provide guidance to a user related to a movement trajectory path of an exercise. The wearable device includes a band, a plurality of vibration motors, at least one processing unit, and a processor. The band is configured to be disposed on a body part to be moved in the exercise. The vibration motors are connected about the band and configured to vibrate when activated. The processing unit is connected to the band and is configured to determine motion data of the motion processing unit as the body part is moved in the exercise. The processor is configured to determine three-dimensional orientation of the band in relation to the trajectory path based on the motion data of the at least one motion processing unit, and configured to activate one or more of the vibration motors to provide guidance to the user based on the trajectory path.
Putting exerciser for evaluating hitting speed and tempo of putter
An exerciser includes: sensor installation units provided to be spaced apart from and face each other in a direction parallel; a radiation unit for radiating light, in a first sensor installation unit; a light receiving unit for receiving the light radiated from the radiation unit, in a second sensor installation unit; a speed detection unit for detecting a speed of the golf ball by checking a moment the golf ball passes; a position measurement unit for measuring a position of the golf ball; an operation control unit for performing calculation to detect an initial position value of the golf ball and a moving speed Vb and a moving distance Hb of the golf ball; and a storage unit for storing the measured speed Vb and distance Hb of the golf ball.
Indoor-traditional crack climbing hold
Crack climbing is being sought out by more indoor climbers, however the issue that has arisen is that indoor features are fixed; cannot be removed or changed, thus climbing the feature indoors quickly loses its value as a method of getting stronger, or improving one's ability to adapt to outdoor environments. Currently if one wishes to practice or train for Crack climbing, they take to easy natural rock routes outdoors or build training boards out of wood to simulate common hand placements under the duress of a climb. Provided herein is an indoor-traditional crack climbing hold (I-TCCH) simulating a variety of Crack climbing situations and providing a “Settable” gym “Crack” to the simulated outdoor environment crack and the opportunity for climbers who wish to learn how to climb crack to have a safe way to learn about making correct hand placement, while conditioning themselves to natural rock surfaces.
Illuminated hockey puck assembly
An illuminated hockey puck assembly includes a housing having an outer surface including a top side, a bottom side, and a perimeter edge extending between the top and bottom sides. The illuminated hockey puck assembly has a weight, a shape, and a size comparable to a hockey puck. A lighting system is mounted within the interior and is encapsulated by the outer surface such that the lighting system is immobilized in the housing. The housing is translucent such that the housing is illuminated by the lighting system when the lighting system emits lights.
Weighted fitness hoop
A weighted fitness hoop apparatus for cardiovascular and resistance exercise. The hoop comprises an elliptical tubular sheath with two end portions, the ends selectively engageable by a coupler. A hollow core extends through the length of the tubular sheath and is optionally fillable with a weight or light. The coupler is insertably engaged with the hollow core at the first and second ends of the elliptical tubular sheath, and the power source for the light is removably attached to surface of the hoop.
Interactive Floor and Amusement Systems and Methods Employing Same
An amusement system features an interactive floor with an array of panels laid out in one or more grids to collectively define an interactive floor surface, an illumination system operable to individually illuminate each panel, and a sensing system operable to detect presence of any participant atop any panel. A base frame of the interactive floor is composed of a plurality of base modules seated on a subfloor, and supporting a respective panel for one or more cells of the interactive floor. The base modules are not directly fastened together, and instead are only intercoupled by perimeter seals applied over peripheral regions of the panels of neighbouring modules. Separation of the modules is constrained by surrounding walls of a room fully occupied by the interactive floor. In gameplay, some panels are distinctively illuminated as hazards to be avoided by participants, subject to penalty.
SUPPORT PART OF A STARTING BLOCK IN SWIMMING
A support part of a swimming start block. The front support part (18) is provided for a starting block (1) of a swimming race, which includes at least one base (9) to be fixed around a swimming pool, and a platform (5) which is mounted or fixed on the base (9). A foot of a swimmer as well as his hands are supported before the start of a race on the front support part. This front support part is arranged to be mounted interchangeably on a front portion of the platform (5) of the starting block (18) and can be an intelligent front support part with motion sensors and light source and race management electronics.
