A measurement system for use in an exercise machine, which exercise machine comprises a lifting mechanism and an engaging member for selectively engaging a number of stacked weights to the lifting mechanism, the measurement system comprising a pair of cooperating members including a range meter and a reflector member, wherein one of the cooperating members is connected to the lifting mechanism and the other of the cooperating members is connected to the engaging member, wherein the range meter is directed to measure a distance to the reflector member to determine a distance which correlates to the weight of the selectively engaged weights.

A measurement system for use in an exercise machine, which exercise machine comprises a lifting mechanism and a rotatable selector member for selectively engaging a number of weights to the lifting mechanism, the measurement system comprising a rotation detector connected to the rotatable selector member, wherein the rotation detector is configured to determine angular position of the rotatable selector member which correlates to the weight of the selectively engaged weights.
A measurement system for use in an exercise machine, which exercise machine comprises a lifting mechanism and an engaging member for selectively engaging a number of stacked weights to the lifting mechanism, the measurement system comprising an operation detection mechanism including an accelerometer connected to a member of the lifting mechanism so as to sense rotational movement about a non-vertical axis upon operation of the exercise machine.
