APPARATUS FOR NATURAL TORSO AND LIMBS TRACKING AND FEEDBACK FOR ELECTRONIC INTERACTION
An apparatus for natural torso and limbs tracking and feedback for electronic interaction with fall safety support. The apparatus comprises a body harness worn on the body of a user, a support structure designed to bear the weight of the user in the event of a stumble, trip, or fall, and a plurality of tethers attached at one end to the harness and at the other end to the support structure. One or more sensors are integrated into the system to measure aspects of the user's movement and used as input to control a computer system. In the event of stumble, trip, or fall, all of, or a portion of, the user's body weight is borne by the tethers as a safety mechanism to prevent injury. The system is designed to be used with virtual reality systems wherein the user's vision is blocked or obscured by a virtual reality visor.

FITNESS EQUIPMENT CONTROL SYSTEM, MOBILE APPARATUS AND FITNESS EQUIPMENT CONTROL METHOD THEREOF
A fitness equipment control system is provided. The system includes a receiver and a mobile apparatus, and performs the operations: generating a first control signal based on a training course of a user; transmitting the first control signal to the receiver to make the receiver generates a signal which is readable by the fitness equipment according to the first control signal and transmit the readable signal to the fitness equipment; receiving at least one physiological signal from at least one of the wearable devices worn by the user; based on the training course and the at least one physiological signal, generating a second control signal; and when the second control signal is generated, transmitting the second control signal to the receiver, wherein the receiver generates a signal which is readable by the fitness equipment according to the second control signal and transmits it to the fitness equipment.
TIMELINE AND MEDIA CONTROLLER FOR EXERCISE MACHINE
A program is presented to a user including a stream of content including a first auditory content and a first visual content related to the workout. A context state of the user participating in the workout is determined based on information from a sensor. A responsive content is selectively added based on the context state of the user to the stream of content in a manner that avoids conflict with the stream of content.
DEVICE AND METHOD FOR RECOGNIZING FREE WEIGHT TRAINING MOTION AND METHOD THEREOF
According to an embodiment, a device for recognizing a free weight training motion comprises a depth camera obtaining image information for measuring a user's body information before exercise and obtaining image information including a unique identifier attached to a piece of exercise equipment and motion of each joint of the user and a variation in body surface due to a motion of the body of the user doing exercise using the piece of exercise equipment, a sensor unit measuring a state of the piece of exercise equipment and recognizing the user, and a controller controlling the depth camera and the sensor unit and processing various pieces of information obtained by the depth camera and the sensor unit.
Artificial Intelligence Assisted Personal Training System, Personal Training Device and Control Device
A personal training system assisted by artificial intelligence (AI) has a personal training device and a control device. The personal training device includes a jacket and pants, and houses sensors at positions corresponding to a user's main muscle groups for monitoring the user's movement posture and muscle activity of the main muscle groups. The control device has a data preprocessing unit for processing detected-signal data of the sensors, a training analysis device for executing an AI algorithm to conduct fatigue analysis of the user's movement based on the user profile and the detected-signal data, and to make training load recommendations. The personal training system can simultaneously monitor posture, muscle activity and muscle fatigue in real time during the exercise; and use the AI algorithm to evaluate exercise performance and provide real-time feedbacks to improve the exercise and training efficiency, and reduce the risk of injury.
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.
