Description

Fitness equipment riding posture measurement display system

[0001] This creation is about a kind of sports fitness equipment, especially a fitness equipment riding posture measurement display system, which can be designed for individual or group fitness exercises to achieve convenient and timely measurement, instant feedback and improve the athlete's posture .

[0002] With the rise of health awareness and the improvement of sports atmosphere, various sports and fitness equipment with various functions have emerged. When users use these sports fitness equipment, whether they are indoor or outdoor fitness equipment, the user's correct posture will affect the performance of the sports fitness equipment, and even incorrect posture can cause sports injuries. [0003] Taking the indoor flywheel bicycle, which is currently widely loved by sportsmen, as an example, its structure mainly includes components such as pedals, cushions, and handles. When the athlete uses this indoor flywheel for exercise, in the absence of the correct guidance of the instructor, not only the effective exercise effect cannot be achieved, but it also often causes the athlete's hands, elbows, waist, feet, etc. Sports injuries in various parts. [0004] In the design of traditional fitness equipment, due to the lack of a posture measurement display or feedback system, users often can only rely on the instructions of the sports coach or can only ride by experience, and cannot immediately respond to the wrong posture during fitness exercises. , And it is impossible to perform statistics, analysis and improvement after fitness exercises. [0005] Although the industry has tried to develop various functions to solve this problem in response to this problem and demand, the effect is still limited. For example, some industry companies have designed to use monitors to capture images to solve the aforementioned problems. However, the layout analysis in this method requires multiple monitors to use 360-degree motion synchronization shooting with complex calculations to target the lower body sitting and posture of the athlete. Standing posture, whether the upper body is tilted forward or upright, the angle of the two elbows, etc. are analyzed by photography, so the cost is too high to be suitable for personal fitness or group fitness, and it is often limited by environmental space.

[0006] For this reason, the main purpose of this creation is to provide a fitness equipment riding posture measurement and display system, which can be designed for individual or group fitness exercises, so as to achieve convenient and timely measurement, instant feedback and improve the athlete's posture. .
