Abstract: An impact detection device, as well as a system that includes such a device for simulation of a combat sport, or more generally for use in a sport in which the user creates an impact by striking an adversary or an object. This device includes a sensor that detects an impact and its intensity, which is mounted on a printed circuit, together with an indicator that activates when the detector detects an impact and/or in order to indicate to a user that the user must generate an impact. The indicator is imbedded in a protective covering so that it is located near the surface of its embedding material. The indicating means are mounted directly on the printed circuit, so that the embedding material also covers the printed circuit and the sensor.

Abstract: A remote control for electronic apparatus, in particular for performing a physical exercise, so as to monitor an operation parameter of the apparatus through a control signal received by a receiver associated with the apparatus. The device comprises a control signal emitter, control means connected to the emitter so as to transmit to the receiver the control signal corresponding to a value of the operation parameter, an at least partially flexible support with a portion for inserting a support part of the hand. The control means are integrated with the support along the insertion portion and the emitter is integrated with the support at a level of this insertion portion, so that these control means are disposed along the support part of the hand and can be actuated by another part of the hand termed the actuator part.

Abstract: This present invention concerns an impact detection device, as well as a system that includes such a device, and is employed particularly in electronic training systems for a combat sport, or for simulation of such a combat sport, such as boxing, karate, kendo, or fencing in particular, or more generally in a sport in which the user creates an impact by striking an adversary or a support, directly or by means of an object that is liable to transmit the impact. This device includes a sensor that is designed to detect an impact and its intensity, which is mounted on a printed circuit, together with indicating means that are designed to be activated when the detector detects an impact and/or in order to indicate to a user that he must generate an impact, and which is imbedded in a protective covering so that it is located near the surface of this embedding material. The indicating means are mounted directly on the printed circuit, so that the embedding material also covers the printed circuit and the sensor.
