Abstract: A method synchronizes headset output signals of an extended reality headset having a headset receiver, wherein the extended reality headset is worn by a user when the user is operating a piece of exercise equipment having an exercise transmitter to transmit an exercise output signal. A motion sensing detector detects motion of the user, wherein the motion sensing detector includes a motion transmitter to transmit a motion signal. The method begins with receiving the exercise output signal from the exercise transmitter using the headset receiver. The motion signal is then received from the motion transmitter using the headset receiver. The headset output signals are then synchronized as they are emitted by the extended reality headset to match the exercise output and motion signals such that the user can sense the headset output signals congruently with what the user can feel when exercising on the piece of exercise equipment.

Abstract: A method calibrates an extended reality headset to be worn by a user for use with a piece of exercise equipment having at least one exercise device. The method includes the step of inputting data identifying physical parameters of the at least one exercise device. An operation space is then identified about the at least one exercise device for the user to occupy while using the piece of exercise equipment. A digital control space is then presented with control inputs allowing the user to control the piece of exercise equipment and/or to control the digital rendering of the extended reality environment. A digital rendition of the piece of exercise equipment and the at least one exercise device is rendered in the view of the user wearing the extended reality headset while operating the piece of exercise equipment.
