Benefits of technology

This patent describes an intelligent heavy bag that has a central core with an illumination system and impact sensor system. The bag also has a layered body structure that allows for visible light to transmit through and identify areas where the user should hit the bag. The sensor system can detect impact anywhere on the surface of the bag. Additionally, the bag has a computational system with memory capabilities to store training sequences and performance data for multiple users, and can communicate with external user interface devices for configuration and data management. The bag can also be internet-ready, allowing remote access and management of locally stored data. Overall, this invention provides a versatile and effective tool for both professional and recreational training in gyms, martial arts schools, and home settings.

Problems solved by technology

Traditional heavy bags and other training devices primarily lack the ability to provide performance tracking and feedback.

Embodiment Construction

[0043]The following detailed description is merely exemplary in nature and is not intended to limit the described embodiments or the application and uses of the described embodiments.

[0044]In one aspect, the intelligent heavy bag system is a customizable, modular system, which includes a body comprising a central core assembly to hold a core member disposed within the first and second layers. The central core assembly further includes a sensor system to sense and process impact upon the bag surface, and an illumination system to transmit visible light to an exterior of the heavy bag system. When illuminated, the visible lights define zones as an indicator for when and where to hit the heavy bag. Advantageously, the intelligent heavy bag system is capable of stimulating and sensing impacts upon the surface of the bag, and processing the magnitude, location, and time delay of those impacts to measure performance.
