An image-stream windowing method includes capturing, with a camera located at a fixed position and having a fixed field of view, a high-resolution image stream of an object that moves during said capturing. The high-resolution image stream includes a sequence of high-resolution frames. The method also includes determining, for each high-resolution frame of the sequence of high-resolution frames, a respective window, of a sequence of windows corresponding to the sequence of high-resolution frames, that encloses the object within said each high-resolution frame. The size and location of the respective window are determined based at least on the fixed position, the fixed field of view, and a position of the object. The method also includes generating a low-resolution image stream from the high-resolution image stream by cropping said each high-resolution frame with its respective window.

Embodiments of golf gloves having a cut out portion and methods to manufacture gloves having a cut out portion are generally described herein. Other embodiments of gloves may be described and claimed.

An example display device includes a communicator configured to communicate with an external apparatus that operates for a workout of a user; a display configured to display an image; and a controller configured to determine workout conditions of the user, and control the communicator to transmit a control signal to the external apparatus so that the display can display a corresponding image and the external apparatus can change the operation in accordance with the determined workout conditions of the user.

A muscular training tension band for equestrian riding has an elastic body and a shoulder guard. In use, the elastic body is worn and stretched between a wearer's shoulder and contralateral foot, with the shoulder guard positioned on the shoulder. The tension band functions to recruit correct engagement of a horseback rider's postural stabilizing muscles in order to find a functionally effective and balanced pelvis in the saddle, while also protecting the spine and decreasing the risk of repetitive force related injuries.

The present invention relates to a display device including a communicator configured to communicate with an external apparatus that operates for a workout of a user; a display configured to display an image; and a controller configured to determine workout conditions of the user, and control the communicator to transmit a control signal to the external apparatus so that the display can display a corresponding image and the external apparatus can change the operation in accordance with the determined workout conditions of the user.

A horse riding training aid is provided. The horse riding training aid includes a dummy horse and actuator means for controlling the fore and aft position of the dummy horse. The horse riding training aid further includes one or more guide and/or control components for generally restricting movements of the dummy horse in certain directions. Actuators are also provide in a form of one or more of fluid operated rams, hydraulic rams and electric motors.

A helmet for protecting a wearer's head. The helmet comprises an outer shell comprising a first shell member and a second shell member movable relative to one another in a longitudinal direction of the helmet to adjust a fit of the helmet on the wearer's head. The helmet comprises an adjustment mechanism configured to control movement of the first shell member and the second shell member relative to one another. The adjustment mechanism comprises an actuator movable between a first position in which the first shell member and the second shell member are allowed to move relative to one another and a second position in which the first shell member and the second shell member are precluded from moving relative to one another. The actuator is configured to lock the first shell member and the second shell member relative to one another without extending through a given one of the first shell member and the second shell member.

A balance chair, comprising a seat, an in substance vertical height element supporting the seat, and a base supporting the height element and seat, distinctive in that the balance chair comprises a rotation and tilt element, arranged in a position in substance midway between the seat and a lower end of the base.

A muscular training tension band for equestrian riding has an elastic body and a shoulder guard. In use, the elastic body is worn and stretched between a wearer's shoulder and contralateral foot, with the shoulder guard positioned on the shoulder. The tension band functions to recruit correct engagement of a horseback rider's postural stabilizing muscles in order to find a functionally effective and balanced pelvis in the saddle, while also protecting the spine and decreasing the risk of repetitive force related injuries.

A camera for facilitating autonomous picture production includes an imager for capturing an image stream, a signal processor for processing the image stream into a plurality of image data paths, at least one image stream output, and a memory for cyclically buffering images of at least two of the plurality of image data paths, into separate circular buffers, respectively, and for buffering one or more output image streams of the camera. A camera for facilitating autonomous picture production produces a standard resolution and rate image stream and a slow-motion image stream of an action of interest.
