Abstract
An exercise machine with visual guidance for providing an instructional lighting system for use with an exercise machine. The exercise machine with visual guidance generally provides for a novel exercise machine comprising an exercise platform movable substantially the length of one or more longitudinal rails, and a lighting system to instruct the exerciser on such exercise elements that may include the direction, pace or intensity of the exercise.
Claims20
An exercise machine with visual guidance, comprising:
- a frame having a first rail and a second rail;
- a carriage movably positioned upon the first rail and the second rail;
- a first end platform attached to the frame;
- a first visual guidance device connected to the first rail, wherein the first visual guidance device extends along at least a portion of the first rail, wherein the first visual guidance device displays a first sequential lighting moving in a first direction at a first speed providing guidance to an exerciser when moving the carriage in the first direction;
- and
- a second visual guidance device connected to the second rail, wherein the second visual guidance device extends along at least a portion of the second rail, wherein the second visual guidance device displays a second sequential lighting moving in a second direction at a second speed providing guidance to the exerciser when moving the carriage in the second direction;
- wherein the first direction is opposite of the second direction.

- a first visual guidance device connected to the first rail, wherein the first visual guidance device extends along at least a portion of the first rail, wherein the first visual guidance device displays a first sequential lighting moving in a first direction at a first speed providing guidance to an exerciser when moving the carriage in the first direction;
- a second visual guidance device connected to the second rail, wherein the second visual guidance device extends along at least a portion of the second rail, wherein the second visual guidance device displays a second sequential lighting moving in a second direction at a second speed providing guidance to the exerciser when moving the carriage in the second direction;
- wherein the first direction is opposite of the second direction;
- wherein the first visual guidance device and the second visual guidance device are comprised of linear lighting;
- and
- a controller for controlling the first visual guidance device and the second visual guidance device.

- a frame having a rail;
- a carriage movably positioned upon the rail;
- a first end platform attached to the frame;
- a first visual guidance device connected to the rail, wherein the first visual guidance device extends along at least a portion of the rail, wherein the first visual guidance device is on or near a first side of the rail, wherein the first visual guidance device displays a first sequential lighting moving in a first direction at a first speed providing guidance to an exerciser when moving the carriage in the first direction;
- a second visual guidance device connected to the rail, wherein the second visual guidance device extends along at least a portion of the rail, wherein the second visual guidance device is on or near a second side of the rail, wherein the second visual guidance device displays a second sequential lighting moving in a second direction at a second speed providing guidance to the exerciser when moving the carriage in the second direction;
- wherein the first direction is opposite of the second direction;
- wherein the first visual guidance device and the second visual guidance device are comprised of linear lighting;
- and
- a controller for controlling the first visual guidance device and the second visual guidance device.
