Abstract: A fitness system operates during a fitness activity of a user to generate a display. The display simulates the performance of the fitness activity by the virtual fitness partner. In particular, the virtual fitness partner is superimposed within images viewed by the user to simulate performance of the fitness activity by the virtual fitness partner while the user is engaged in the activity. Differences in perspective are calculated based on a virtual position of the virtual fitness partner and a measured pace of the user. In addition, the virtual fitness partner can take actions such as generating critical or encouraging visual and/or auditory feedback in response to triggering events, for example, when the user falls behind the virtual fitness partner or takes the lead.

Abstract: A lumber stacking and strapping system can provide a single-station solution for both lumber stacking and package strapping. In addition, the package strapping system may apply multiple straps simultaneously to the package. For example, a package stacking and strapping system can provide not only a mechanism for formulating a package of lumber one layer at a time, but also a mechanism for lowering a completed package directly into a compression and strapping station, such as using the lumber stacker package accumulation hoist. The stacking and strapping system can then simultaneously apply strapping around the package in multiple positions along the length of the package, with bottom battens and top corner protectors further supplied and strapped into place as desired. A method for stacking and strapping a package in a single location is also provided.

Abstract: A method for execution by a mobile communications device includes generating display data, where a display device of eyewear, worn by a user performing a fitness activity, displays a virtual fitness partner in accordance with the display data to virtually superimpose the virtual fitness partner upon physical surroundings viewed by the user through at least one translucent lens of the eyewear to simulate performance of the fitness activity by the virtual fitness partner along a virtual transit within a physical vicinity of the user throughout the transit of the user. The virtual fitness partner is displayed in accordance with perspective data generated based on the user's transit velocity and head orientation, determined based on sensor data collected by at least one motion sensor. The virtual fitness partner is further depicted to perform one of a plurality of fitness partner actions in accordance with event trigger monitoring data.

Abstract: A customizable multiple adjustment and multiple position seating apparatus or chair with independently adjustable front and rear seat height or elevation and front to rear seat slope; adjustable seat length or distance from the front of the seat to the rise of the backrest; and 180° pivoting/reclining backrest. Height of the front of the seat is adjustable from flat near the ground to armrest elevation. The rear of the seat, independent from front adjustments, is adjustable from near ground level to just below armrest level. Independent adjustability allows the seat to be positioned at multiple elevations and incline angles. Numerous backrest recline angle settings are obtainable throughout the 180° pivotability as well as numerous seat lengths. The backrest pivots to a forward position to become a handle for wheelbarrow-like mobility and the apparatus can be further rotated vertically and rested on the backend for a smaller storage profile.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein disclose a cylindrical housing with a compartment defining a section of the housing. The cylindrical housing being configured to rotate around an axle disposed at the center of the cylindrical housing. Embodiments may also include a frame disposed along a curved surface of the cylindrical housing configured to allow access to the compartment within an access portion, wherein the access portion projects the frame from a center of the curved surface towards an edge of the cylindrical housing.

Abstract: A pivoting mid-floor section for use in a feeder house in an agricultural combine is located between the transverse drum and the transverse sprocket means. The pivoting mid-floor can move or adjust when a large volume of crop material is fed into the feeder house, while providing support for the conveyor chain along substantially the entire length of travel between the transverse drum and sprocket means, thus reducing the friction on the chain, and preventing the system slow downs that occurred in feeder house systems using a fixed mid-floor. Additionally, replaceable wear-resistant surfaces can be affixed to the runners or guides of the mid-floor to further extend wear life and reduce friction between the chain slats and mid-floor. The friction occurs between the wear pads on the runners or guides and the chain slats, rather than between the chain components and the mid-floor.
