  • Publication number: 20210362000
    Abstract: An exercise equipment system with a movable support that is movable in a lateral direction, a sensor adapted to generate a lateral tilt signal, and a processor for generating a left or right turn output signal to a ride simulation in response to tilting of the exercise equipment during use. The exercise equipment may be a cycle mounted to a base. The processor may further filter out small magnitude sensor signals generated through left or right tilting that occurs during cycling, which are not indicative of a turn. The system may also include a display for visualizing a ride simulation of one or more network connected cycle avatars that are individually controlled with a lean-to-steer system.

  • Patent number: 9964456
    Abstract: A system is provided for determining total exerted power value that is determined based on power measured at only one side of a bicycle by determining a side-to-side pedaling power asymmetry and estimating the total exerted power as a function of values of the one-sided power measurement and the side-to-side pedaling power asymmetry.

  • Patent number: 9341526
    Abstract: A system for determining power expended by a bicyclist while riding a bicycle based on speed measurements or sensed-speed values. The system includes a sensing device arranged for detecting a speed-related value of the bicycle and a processor that communicates with the sensing device. The processor is configured to determine a change in the speed-related value and to determine a power value based on the change in the speed-related value.

  • Patent number: 8607647
    Abstract: A bicycle power sensing system includes an electronics module that can be separated from a power-measuring hub assembly. The power-measuring hub assembly includes onboard electronics that cooperates with the electronics module when the electronics module is attached to the power-measuring hub assembly. The onboard electronics includes a memory module that stores a calibration value for a torque tube of the power-measuring hub assembly so that the torque tube does not have to be recalibrated after the electronics module is removed from the power-measuring hub assembly.

  • Patent number: 7975561
    Abstract: A torque sensing arrangement has a set of strain sensors, such as strain gauges, mounted to an adapter that can be mounted to a chain ring of the crank set of a bicycle wheel. The adapter may have an annular body that can be used to retrofit the original crank set of a bicycle to have torque sensing components without having to replace the chain rings or the crank arm of the crank set. Together with angular velocity measurements, the measurements of the strain sensors may be used to calculate the amount of work or power exerted by the cyclist to propel the bicycle.
