An exercise method and an exercise equipment are provided. The exercise method includes: determining an exercise guiding video according to a selected music input/audio signal, wherein the exercise guiding video includes a first exercise guiding video and/or a second exercise guiding video, the first exercise guiding video is a live video automatically generated according to the selected music input/audio signal, the second exercise guiding video is a video previously recorded according to the selected music input/audio signal; generating CGA and special-effect/animated feedbacks corresponding to the music information/audio signal and instruction/cuing in the exercise guiding video; playing the exercise guiding video, the CGA, the special-effect/animated feedbacks and the selected music input/audio signal on a display and computing device; receiving user performance data; displaying interactive feedback data on the display and computing device, according to a result obtained by matching the user performance data with music information/audio signal analyzed from selected music input/audio signal.

An exercise bike and a handlebar assembly are provided. The handlebar assembly includes: a rod-shaped handlebar; a support post; a first connecting component comprising a first recess, and further comprising a first tenon and a second tenon; a second connecting component comprising a first side, a second side away from the first side and a sidewall connecting the first side to the second side, wherein the second side of the second connecting component is provided with a second recess, and further provided with a first mortise and a second mortise. When the second recess is aligned with the first recess, a first through-hole is formed for the handlebar passing through, the first tenon is inserted in the first mortise, and the second tenon is inserted in the second mortise. The handlebar assembly can be easily assembled to the exercise bike.

In one aspect of the disclosure, a method that involves keeping state of a video workout program may include communicatively coupling a server in a cloud network to an exercise machine through a first network connection, communicatively coupling the server to a network device through a second network connection, the server providing a video workout program to the exercise machine for execution at the exercise machine to enable a user to perform at least a portion of a workout of the video workout program on the exercise machine, the server keeping state of the video workout program during execution of the video workout program based on inputs from the exercise machine and the network device, and taking an action based on the state. The action may include synchronizing multiple displays, adaptively scaling the video workout program, and/or generating and providing an exercise machine control command to the exercise machine.

An exercise device includes a base defining an inner volume and a top supported by the base, the top defining an aperture. The exercise device further includes a force sensor configured to measure force on the top and a motor disposed within the base and below the top, the motor including a cable extendable through the aperture. The exercise deice further includes a controller communicatively coupled to each of the force sensor and the motor. The controller is adapted to actuate the motor in response to forces applied to the top as measured by the force sensor. The controller may also actuate the motor in response to one or more additional parameters related to the speed or force with which the cable is manipulated (e.g., pulled by a user).

A method is disclosed for using an artificial intelligence engine to modify resistance of pedals of an exercise device. The method includes generating, by the artificial intelligence engine, a machine learning model trained to receive measurements as input, and outputting, based on the measurements, a control instruction that causes the exercise device to modify, independently from each other, the resistance of the pedals. While a user performs an exercise using the exercise device, the method includes receiving the measurements from sensors associated with the pedals. The method includes determining, based on the measurements, a quantifiable or qualitative modification to the resistance provided by a pedal of the pedals. The resistance provided by another pedal of the pedals is not modified. The method includes transmitting the control instruction to the exercise device to cause the resistance provided by the pedal to be modified.

A treadmill includes a platform where the platform includes a first side panel and a second side panel spaced apart at a distance from the first side panel, and a gap defined between the first side panel and the second side panel. The treadmill also includes a running deck contained within the platform and exposed within the gap, a first pulley connected to the running deck, a second pulley connected to the running deck opposite the first pulley, a tread belt surrounding the first pulley and the second pulley. A motor is in mechanical communication with at least one of the first pulley or the second pulley. A cover is located over the motor. A scale mechanism is incorporated into the cover over the motor.

A walking training system includes a treadmill configured to prompt a trainee to walk, a display device installed such that the trainee views the display device while walking on the treadmill, a camera configured to image the trainee at an angle of view at which a gait of the trainee is recognizable, a calculation unit configured to calculate a tilt of a body core of the walking trainee based on an image captured by the camera, and a display control unit configured to control the display device to display a body core line associated with the tilt, and an index indicating at least an end of a permissible range of a deflection of the body core line.

An active suspension orthotic support system is disclosed. The suspension orthotic support system comprises at least one variable resistance beam extending from a heel section to a mid-arch section of the footwear, wherein rotation of the variable resistance beam from a first position to a second position causes a resistance provided by the variable resistance beam to vary between a minimum resistance to a maximum resistance.

A smart box system may include a smart box device. The smart box device may include a top portion, elongated side portions, and side portions. The top portion may include a top set of locking elements configured to mate with an external device to prevent the external device from moving relative the top portion of the smart box device. The elongated side portions may attach to the top portion. The side portions may selectively attach to distal ends of the elongated side portions.

A control system for regulation balls in a football field and regulation ball support for same is provided. The system has ball supports arranged in a football field, a central control unit and a portable electronic device. Each ball support has presence sensors for detecting a football in a supporting base and data processing means for wirelessly communicating information from the presence sensors to the central control unit. The central control unit monitors the presence of footballs in each ball support and repeatedly sends, wirelessly, the results from the monitoring to the portable electronic device, which graphically shows on a screen the presence or absence of footballs in the corresponding ball supports.
