Systems, methods, and apparatuses for implementing a GPS directional swimming watch for the eyesight impaired
In accordance with embodiments disclosed herein, there are provided systems, methods, and apparatuses for implementing a GPS directional swimming watch for the eyesight impaired. For example, according to one embodiment there is a wearable navigational apparatus including: a mechanical input to receive coordinates for a first location located at an end of a first fixed segment originating from an starting point in a first single cardinal direction; a mechanical input to receive coordinates for a second location located at the end of a second fixed segment originating from the first location in a second single cardinal direction perpendicular to the first cardinal direction, in which the first and second fixed segments form a selected route; a haptic feedback motor having a magnetized compass integrated therein to signal a wearer directional information relative to the first and second locations set, in which the hepatic feedback motor signals the wearer to change direction upon any of: (i) reaching the first location, (ii) reaching the second location, and (iii) deviating from any point along the selected route during bidirectional navigation; and a return function to signal to the wearer, via the haptic feedback motor, directional information relative to the starting point from any point along the selected course. Other related embodiments are described.
Performance monitoring systems and methods
Systems and methods for electronically creating and modifying a fitness plan are disclosed. The method may include receiving electronic user data, collecting electronic fitness data, and displaying a suggestion for a fitness activity based on the electronic user data and the electronic fitness data.
Variable tension/resistance payout control machine
This invention is embodied by a controlled, variable tension line, payout reel machine. A system of sensors detect line tension and line distance paid out, location, and transmit through wired and unwired communication to a microprocessor. The microprocessor is co-located with the reel structure, which in turn applies, via a brake feature, resistance to the reel which is paying out the line being pulled by the user. This invention pertains to all applications where it is desirable to control the tension in a line paid out from a reel or reel. As stated, the payout motive force is supplied by the person, animal or apparatus attached to the end of the line, opposite the reel. The invention applies to the field of precise and measured control of line tension for sport, sport training, performance testing.
SMART SPORT DEVICE
An Internet of Thing (IoT) sport device includes a body with a processor, a camera and a wireless transceiver coupled to the processor.
PHYSICAL EXERCISE TRAINING TECHNIQUES
The present invention relates to a cover assembly including a frame including at least one inflatable portion. At least one cover is supported by the frame to define a chamber. Adjustment means is provided for adjusting the air conditions (e.g. pressure or oxygen content) of the pressure chamber.
Pull Buoy
A flotation component, such as for a pull buoy, can be sized and shaped to be placed between the legs of a swimmer. The flotation component can include one or more features to assist in maintaining the flotation component in place while the swimmer is swimming. A pull buoy including the flotation component also can include an internally routed strap that assists in fastening the flotation component to at least one leg. A pull buoy including the flotation component can include a waist portion having a lateral diameter that decreases from one end to the opposite end.
Portable exercise-related data apparatus
A portable apparatus includes an exercise-measurement circuitry that measures exercise-related measurement data related to a user carrying out an exercise, a communication circuitry configured to provide the portable apparatus with wireless communication capability, and a processing circuitry configured to a perform operations. The operations include receiving the exercise-related measurement data from the exercise-measurement circuitry, receiving configuration data from an external user interface apparatus over a bidirectional wireless communication connection established through the communication circuitry and capable of transferring payload data to both directions, processing the exercise-related measurement data according to the received exercise-related parameters in order to obtain advanced exercise-related data, and communicating the advanced exercise-related measurement data to the user interface apparatus over the bidirectional wireless communication connection.
SWIM AR GOGGLES
Swimming goggles have a left-eye covering and a right-eye covering, each having a corresponding transparent window that defines a field of view and each further having a seal extending between the transparent window and the swimmer's face and formed to exclude water. A near-eye display is in signal communication with an image processor and forms a virtual image in the left- or right-eye field of view.
Automatic Detection and Quantification of Swimming
A wearable device for tracking swim activities of a user is provided. The wearable device may include one or more sensors configured to generate sensor data, and based on the sensor data, the wearable device may determine swim metrics such as swim stroke count, swim stroke type, swim lap count, and swim speed. The determined swim metrics may be filtered based on one or more swim periods during which the user is likely to have been swimming. The wearable device may determine such swim periods based on the sensor data and/or the determined swim metrics.
SPORTING SENSOR-BASED APPARATUS, SYSTEM, METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT
According to one exemplary embodiment, an apparatus, system, method and/or computer program product may provide an athletic training performance analysis apparatus including at least one athletic training performance analysis device including at least one electronic sensor coupled to the at least one athletic training performance analysis device; at least one user interface coupled to the at least one athletic training performance analysis device configured to interact with a user to receive a user selection of at least one training performance analysis routine, the at least one user interface may include: at least one electronic computer processor coupled to the at least one electronic sensor; at least one input device coupled to the at least one electronic computer processor to receive the user selection; at least one output device coupled to the at least one electronic computer processor to provide output to the user; at least one electronic memory coupled to the at least one electronic computer processor; and at least one of: wherein the at least one electronic computer processor is configured to save or retrieve the at least one training performance analysis routine from the at least one memory; where the at least one electronic computer processor is configured to electronically monitor and electronically analyze the at least one training performance analysis routine based on the at least one electronic sensor; wherein the at least one electronic computer processor is configured to randomize at least one challenge by the at least one athletic training performance analysis device; or wherein the electronic computer processor is configured to at least one of: combine a plurality of previously saved of the at least one training performance analysis routine, or shuffle a plurality of previously saved of the at least one training performance analysis routine.
