Abstract
A body weight exercise device includes a frame, a first handle attached to the frame, a second handle attached to the frame, and a processor and memory. The memory includes programmed instructions to cause the processor to determine a characteristic associated with a performance of an exercise with the body weight exercise device.
Claims20
A body weight exercise device, comprising:
- a frame;
- a first handle attached to the frame;
- a second handle attached to the frame;
- at least one sensor configured to sense a position of a user, wherein the at least one sensor includes a camera positioned to record movements in the performance of the exercise;
- and
- a processor and memory in communication with the sensor, the memory including programmed instructions which, when accessed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- distinguish between at least two types of exercises with the body weight exercise device based on the sensed position;
- determine at least two characteristics associated with a performance of an exercise of the at least two exercises;
- and
- determine a first characteristic of the at least two characteristics based on variation in at least one color value in at least one pixel of the camera.

A body weight exercise device, comprising:
- a frame;
- a first handle attached to the frame;
- a second handle attached to the frame;
- a display attached to the frame;
- a camera positioned to record movements of the performance of the exercise;
- a processor and memory, the memory including programmed instructions which, in communication with the camera, when accessed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- determine a calorie burn value associated with a performance of an exercise with the body weight exercise device;
- modify the calorie burn value into a modified calorie burn value based on the movements of the performance of the exercise;
- and
- present the modified calorie burn value in the display.

A body weight exercise device, comprising:
- a frame;
- an exercise deck attached to the frame;
- a tread belt incorporated into the exercise deck;
- a first handle attached to the frame;
- a second handle attached to the frame;
- a display attached to the frame;
- at least one sensor, the at least one sensor including a camera positioned to record movements of the performance of the exercise;
- a processor and memory, the memory including programmed instructions which, when accessed by the processor and in communication with input from the at least one sensor, cause the processor to:
- determine a type of the exercise performed by the user with the body weight exercise device;
- determine a number of repetitions of the exercise;
- determine a body weight of the user in the performance of the exercise;
- determine a calorie burn value associated with a performance of the exercise;
- and
- present the calorie burn value in the display.
