Publication number: 20170319902Abstract: An exercise apparatus, system, and method are provided herein, in which an exercise apparatus has a tracking mechanism comprising a gyroscope, processor and transmitter. The user may wear a sensor, for example, on his shoe. The gyroscope detects the position of the exercise apparatus with respect to the sensor, and thus detects the motions made by the user with the apparatus. A mobile device such as a cellular phone may have an application running thereon, which tracks these motions, and notify the user if the user's form is incorrect, and preferably provides an image of the proper form. The exercise apparatus may include wheels with which the exercise apparatus may be rolled.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 3, 2017Publication date: November 9, 2017Inventors: Anuj Patel, Andrew Page

Patent number: 7375535Abstract: A capacitive sensing system (100) can connect groups of capacitive sensors (112-1 to 112-N) to a common node (106) to detect change in capacitance. States of a set of capacitive sensors (112-1 to 112-N) can thus be scanned faster than approaches that scan such sensors one-by-one. Faster scanning can allow for reduced power consumption in applications that only periodically scan the set of capacitive sensors (112-1 to 112-N).Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2005Date of Patent: May 20, 2008Assignee: Cypress Semiconductor CorporationInventors: Harold Kutz, Warren Snyder, Tim Williams, Andrew Page

Patent number: 5822385Abstract: In many applications, for example in a telecommunications system, it is necessary to identify a unique data sequence at a high speed serial data interface within one bit period of the complete sequence being received. This pattern recognition is often used in order to synchronize the receiver to the frame timing of an incoming data stream and thus identify the octet boundaries. It is usually required to react to this pattern within one data bit period at the interface in order to synchronize internal counters. A data stream pattern recognition apparatus recognizes a predetermined pattern of sequential data within a data stream by including a state machine having at least as many state units connected in series as there are bits in the predetermined pattern, the state machine transfers sequentially from state to state on receipt of each bit of the series.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 1995Date of Patent: October 13, 1998Assignee: GPT LimitedInventors: Paul Malcolm Hayes, Peter Andrew Page

Patent number: 5784427Abstract: A feedback and shift unit is arranged to reduce to a minimum the number of processing steps required in a processor, such as a DSP, to achieve a particular operating function, such as a linear feedback shift or a stepping function used by encryption algorithms. The feedback and shift unit (50) comprises a linear feedback shift register (52) for storing a value of the feedback and shift unit. A tap register (56) stores a tap position indicator indicative of tap positions for the feedback and shift unit (50). An input provides data to the feedback and shift unit. A feedback matrix, coupled to receive the data from the input, provides data bits, generated in response to the data and the tap position indicator, that are shifted into the linear feedback shift register (52) to form the value stored therein.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 1996Date of Patent: July 21, 1998Assignee: Motorola, Inc.Inventors: Irwin Bennett, Andrew Page, Barry King, Paul Golding

Patent number: 5781566Abstract: A cyclic redundancy coder (10) is arranged to reduce to a minimum the number of processing steps required in a processor, such as a DSP, to achieve a cyclic redundancy coding function. The cyclic redundancy coder (10) comprises a shift register (12) having a plurality of storage elements each for storing a bit of a cyclic redundancy code word. A tap register (16) stores a tap position indicator indicative of tap positions in the cyclic redundancy code word that are subject to a logical operation. An input (18) provides input data to the cyclic redundancy coder. A logic feedback network (20-28) receives the data from the input and provides the logical operation. The logic feedback network also provides a plurality of data bits generated in response to the input data and each bit contained in each storage element identified by the tap position indicator. The cyclic redundancy code word is produced by applying at least one of the plurality of data bits to one storage element that is adjacent a tap position.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 1996Date of Patent: July 14, 1998Assignee: Motorola, Inc.Inventors: Irwin Bennett, Barry King, Andrew Page, Paul Golding
