An exercise system includes at least two exercise modules and is arranged to allow multiple users performing exercises on, with or against the modules in different locations while performing at least one preset task defined in a context of a story, a scenery or a video (or computer) game each in turn preferably defined in a virtual environment. The exercise system generally generates the task of the story, scenery or game in images of the virtual environment and simulates the exercising users as simulated user in such images, while allowing the users to manipulate the simulated users for attaining a goal of the task based on features related with the exercises performed by the user or allowing the task to manipulate operations of the modules based on the features. The execs system includes at least two output modules each including a visual unit to provide the images for the task to each user and an olfactory or tactile unit to provide smell or tactile sensation to the user, respectively.
An exercise system which is configured to provide at least two users with at least one preset task of at least one of a story, a scenery, a video game, and a computer game each of which defines a preset task goal and is provided in images of at least one virtual environment, to allow said users to simultaneously perform exercises, to relate at least one first feature of one of said exercises with at least one second feature of another of said exercises, and to one of directly and indirectly manipulate said second feature at least partly based upon said first feature comprising:
An exercise system which is configured to connect a plurality of locations, to incorporate at least one exercise module in each of said locations, to define at least one preset task of at least one of a story, a scenery, a video game, and a computer game each defining a preset goal and provided in images for at least one virtual environment, and to allow each of a plurality of users to simultaneously perform exercises at least one of on, with, and against each of said exercise modules in each of said locations while competing each other in said images for said goal of said task at least partly based on said exercises performed by said users comprising:
An exercise system which is configured to operatively connect a plurality of locations via at least one of a local network and a global network, to include at least one exercise module in each of said locations, to define at least one preset task of at least one of a story, a scenery, a video game, and a computer game each defining a preset goal for said task and provided in images for at least one virtual environment, and to allow each of a plurality of users to simultaneously perform exercises at least one of on, with, and against each of said exercise modules disposed in each of said locations while competing each other in said images for said task goal at least partly based on said exercises performed by said users comprising:
