Abstract
An apparatus and method concurrently present a plurality of visible tracings or a single continuous visible tracing that overlaps itself, each of the visible tracings being based upon movement taken by a member of an exercise device.
Claims20
An exercise device comprising:
- a frame;
- a first member movably coupled to the frame so as to move with feet of a person;
- a display;
- and
- a controller configured to generate control signals causing the display to present a single continuous visible tracing that crosses itself and is based upon movement of the first member by the person during an exercise session, wherein the controller is configured to generate and display score for a workout, the score being based upon one or more factors selected from a group of factors consisting of:
- time to completely fill in an interior area of a target shape with the single continuous visible tracing;
- and accuracy-an extent to which the single continuous visible tracing extends outside of the interior area of the target shape.

An exercise device comprising:
- a frame;
- a first member movably coupled to the frame so as to move with feet of a person;
- a display;
- and
- a controller configured to generate control signals causing the display to present a plurality of visible tracings, wherein the plurality of visible tracings is based upon movement of the first member by the person during an exercise session and wherein each of the plurality of tracings overlap one another;
- and
- a user actuatable actuator configured to actuate between an active state and an inactive state, wherein, in the active state, visible tracings are added to existing already presented visible tracings that have been generated in response to movement of the first member during the exercise session and wherein, in the inactive state, visible tracings are not added despite movement of the first member.
