- the device according to the invention comprises several pressure-sensitive surfaces, the number and arrangement of which vary according to the embodiments.
- One embodiment of a pressure-sensitive surface consists in producing a surface in which two flat conductive layers are separated by a material of foam type in which several orifices of sufficient diameter have been created.
- the expansion force of the foam-like material keeps the two conductive layers separate and opens the electrical circuit of which these are the ends.
- the two conductive layers meet and touch through the orifices of the foam-type material, thus closing the electrical circuit of which the conductive layers are the ends.
- the classic “step” has a shape that fits into a rectangular parallelepiped and has approximately the following dimensions: a length ranging from 70 cm to 100 cm, a width from 20 to 40 cm and a variable height, adjustable by the user according to the difficulty of the exercises he wishes to perform, between 10 and 30 cm.
- the dimensions and the shape of the block of the device according to the invention depend on the embodiments, but remain comparable to the dimensions and the shape indicated for the conventional “step”.
- a mechanism will make it possible to vary the height of the upper part of the Block, like a classic "step", in order to allow the practitioner to vary the levels of difficulty of the exercises.
- the Block consists of an upper part 1 supported by four feet 2.
- this mechanism consists of four feet having the shape of rectangular parallelepipeds, the three sides of which each have a different length, each corresponding to a height specific to which we want to be able to adjust the upper part of the Block. These four feet are placed under the upper surface of the Block, at the four corners thereof. Depending on whether one of the three sides of the legs is used differently for height, the upper part of the Block is raised to three different heights. One of these feet is shown in Figure 2. The three sides 3, 4 and 5 are of different lengths.
- this mechanism consists of two feet in the form of rectangular parallelepipeds, the three sides of which each have a different size, two of these sizes corresponding at a specific height at which you want to be able to adjust the upper part of the Block, the third length being equal to the width of the Block.
- These two feet are formed so as to be placed under the upper surface of the Block, at its narrower ends.
- the underside of the upper surface of the Block is provided at these locations with two reinforcements raising the Block.
- FIG 3 there is shown a foot 8, with one side of the same width as the upper part of Block 1, and two other sides 9 and 10 of different length. Reinforcements 7 have also been shown which give the Block a certain height even without adjusting the feet. This height corresponds to the minimum height at which you want to place the upper surface.
- the upper part of the block is raised to three different heights.
- the feet will be provided with pegs 11 and the reinforcements of the upper part of the block of holes in which these pegs will be fitted in order to secure the upper part of the block to its feet.
- the Block will be provided at its top with a number of pressure-sensitive surfaces, the number and arrangement of which will vary according to the embodiments. According to one embodiment, illustrated in Figure 4, the pressure-sensitive surfaces located on the top of Block 1 will be four in number. Three surfaces, numbered in Figure 4 13, 14 and 15, will cut the top into three parts: a left part, a central part, and a right part.
- a fourth surface 12 will make the outline of the top of the Block, over a width of at most a few centimeters.
- this last surface will be to indicate interactively to the user that it "bites” on the contour of the upper part of the parallelepiped, which is not recommended for some of the movements of gymnastics of the type " step ”as this can create strong pressure on the Achilles tendon.
- Around the block are arranged several pressure-sensitive surfaces, connected to each other, the number and arrangement of which vary according to the embodiments.
- each of these four zones is cut in half in order to take into account an additional characteristic of gymnastics of the “step” type, many movements of which begin with both feet opposite the face. or of the profile of the "step” and continue by differentiating the left and right sides for the placement of the feet next to the “step", whether the user is oriented towards the profile or the face of the "step".
- Pressure sensitive surfaces arranged as shown in Figure 5, are able to make these distinctions.
- the pressure-sensitive areas are not rectangular, and are not arranged along the axes of symmetry of the mat of the device according to the invention, considered as a flat rectangular surface, but at opposite on both sides of these axes of symmetry.
- the surfaces, sensitive to pressure, located around the Block are 8 in number, numbered in Figure 5 from 16 to 23, arranged as follows: two in front of the Block, two in the back, two on the left and two on the right.
- the sensitive surfaces will have qualities of resistance, of tolerance to friction and of anti-skid, expected for a surface of "step" and of gymnastic mats. These qualities may be different depending on the location and use of the surfaces within the device according to the invention.
- the pressure sensitive surfaces both around and on the Block, are connected to each other. Each of them can be the source of a differentiated signal when pressure is put on it.
- the signals created by pressing on these surfaces are transformed so as to be interpretable by the type of digital processing unit to which the device according to the invention is connected and to which the device according to the invention transmits the signals.
- the device according to the invention is connectable to a digital processing unit. According to one embodiment, this connection is made using a cable provided with the appropriate connector. According to another embodiment, this connection is made using a wireless link. In this case, a receiver will be connectable to the digital processing unit and a transmitter will be connected to all of the pressure-sensitive surfaces.
- the surfaces, sensitive to pressure, located on the surface of the top of the Block are connected to each other and to the other sensitive surfaces located around the Block by a set 28 of electrical wires crossing the surface upper part of the Block, then passing under the Block and then being connected to the other pressure-sensitive surfaces 27 situated around the Block.
- the assembly is then connectable via a cable 26 and a suitable connector 25 to a digital processing unit.
- the device will include control buttons, generating signals, located on the periphery of the sensitive surfaces located around the Block.
- the signals generated by these buttons will also be transmitted to the digital processing unit.
- These buttons can be placed on one or more specific supports and be supplemented with diodes or various other elements aiming to increase the pleasure and the richness of use.
- control buttons, generating signals, located on the Block will complete the device according to the invention.
- the signals generated by these buttons will also be transmitted to the digital processing unit.
- These buttons will be placed so that the user cannot accidentally operate them while practicing interactive gymnastics. Thus, they may be located on the vertical sides of the Block or require a specific control action such as a successive double press or a prolonged press.
- the signals transmitted by the device according to the invention will be accompanied by a specific signal making it possible to identify that the transmitter of the signals is a peripheral of the same category as the device according to the invention.
- a specific signal making it possible to identify that the transmitter of the signals is a peripheral of the same category as the device according to the invention.
- Such an identifying signal will make it possible for example to ensure, in the event of a competition or network games involving several distant participants, that all of the competitors are all provided with a device of the same type as that of the device according to 1 ' invention.
- one or more vibration or shock sensors will be placed on the Block so as to assess the degree of violence with which the user climbs on the Block.
- one or more vibration or shock sensors will be connected to the pressure-sensitive surfaces so as to assess the degree of violence with which the user carries his weight on these surfaces.
- the information from these sensors can be transmitted to the digital processing unit which will return the information in a fun or educational form to the user.
- this information will be directly transmitted to the user, without passing through the digital processing unit, by means of light or sound signals varying according to the intensity shock and emitted directly by the device according to the invention.
- the number of distinct signals generated by the device according to the invention and transmitted to the digital processing unit is less than or equal to the numbers of pressure-sensitive surfaces making up the invention, to which are possibly added the signals coming from the vibration or shock and the signals from the control buttons possibly placed on the Block or on the periphery of the surfaces located around the Block.
- the number of distinct signals which the device according to the invention can generate is greater than the number of distinct signals which a classical dance floor can generate. This greater number of signals corresponds to the specific requirements for using the device according to the invention in the context of interactive gymnastics of the “step” type.
- light-emitting diodes are placed on, under or near the pressure-sensitive surfaces and indicate to the user, by a light signal, either the surface on which he has just pressed, or, for example in a learning or playing environment, the surface on which he must press or he should have pressed.
- a light signal either the surface on which he has just pressed, or, for example in a learning or playing environment, the surface on which he must press or he should have pressed.
- the electrical connection between the Block and the pressure-sensitive surfaces, arranged around the Block is not a fixed link, but is made by means of connectors which can be connected or disconnected at will.
- the advantage of such an embodiment is that it allows the user to disconnect the Block from the surfaces arranged around it and to change this Block by another interactive Block of the same kind, having the appropriate connector, but having other qualities (different shape, possibility of other height adjustments, better resistance to weight or impact, different elasticity etc.). This new Block will be connected to the surfaces arranged around it.
- the different pressure-sensitive surfaces surrounding the block can be spaced a given distance from each other, while remaining connected to each other.
- the advantage of such an embodiment is to vary the extent of the surfaces located around the Block and thus extend the interactive perimeter around the Block, but also to vary the size of the space reserved for this Block , located in the center of said surfaces.
- the user can thus use Blocks occupying different floor surfaces.
- one indicates at 29 one of the pressure-sensitive surfaces, at 30 one of the electrical connections between the surfaces and at 31 the cable and the connector connecting the surfaces to the digital processing unit.
- the subjugation of the surfaces to one another can be reinforced, for example with strips of "velcro" fabrics (registered trademark). We can thus have strips of female “velcro” fabric sewn on the surfaces, and provide the user with strips of male “velcro” fabrics to connect the strips of female “velcro” fabrics to the surfaces.
- the various pressure-sensitive surfaces located on the Block can be separated from the Block and distant from each other while remaining electrically connected.
- Three pressure-sensitive surfaces can be arranged as follows: two at the corners of the upper part of the Block, and a third between the first two.
- the advantage of this embodiment lies in that it makes it possible to cover surfaces sensitive to pressure and therefore to make interactive a non-interactive "step” that the user would already have, this "step” then taking the place of Block of the device according to the invention.
- the pressure-sensitive parts will be wedged at the top of the non-interactive "step", for example using a flange 34 or adhesive parts.
- Another embodiment with pressure-sensitive surfaces located on the upper part of the Block and having the possibility of deviating is obtained by connecting the pressure-sensitive surfaces to each other by an elastic fabric that can be tightened around the Block.
- Such a fabric will have dimensions designed to be able to adapt to the majority of the upper parts of the non-interactive "steps" and remain subject to it.
- the pressure-sensitive surfaces of the Block are not placed on the Block but below it.
- the way in which the user carries his weight and feet on the top of the block is then transcribed mechanically on these pressure-sensitive surfaces and causes them to generate signals which are transmitted to the digital processing unit to be interpreted by it.
- the pressure-sensitive surfaces, located under the Block are two in number and are placed under the left and right feet supporting the Block.
- these surfaces may be more than two in number and arranged side by side under the block, in particular in the case where the block is devoid of a foot and its weight is supported by its entire lower surface. These surfaces will send a variable signal depending on the importance of the weight they support.
- the device according to the invention will allow the device according to the invention to be calibrated so that it recognizes the weight of the block alone and, by difference of the signals emitted by these surfaces, to estimate thanks to the weight of the user when he is on the block. , is rather on one or the other or in the middle of said surfaces.
- the advantage of this embodiment is to be able to use a non-interactive step with the device according to the invention.
- analog pressure sensors such as atmospheric pressure sensors connected to gas bags included in the sensitive surfaces located under the Block and sending an electrical signal as a function of the atmospheric pressure of each air pocket, itself a function of the weight exerted on the Block.
- the comparison of the signals sent by these sensors will make it possible to evaluate a pressure differential exerted by the Block on the sensitive surfaces supporting it and consequently the position of the user.
- one or more differential pressure sensors connected to all of the gas pockets included in the surfaces placed under the block so as to be able in particular to obtain a differential of the pressures exerted by the left and right sides of the Block.
- each pressure-sensitive surface has a wireless transmitter.
- the signals created by the surfaces are transmitted, via their wireless transmitter, to a receiver connected to the digital processing unit which makes these signals interpretable by said digital processing unit.
- each pressure-sensitive surface has an emitter
- each pressure-sensitive surface is connected to a transmitter of so-called RFID technology.
- a switch depending on the pressure exerted on the surface would make said transmitter operational or not, which transmits to the associated RFID receiver information indicating that the user exerts or not a pressure on said surface.
- the choice of an RFID technology is motivated by the fact that this technology is fortunate to have inexpensive transmitters and is capable of managing correctly in transmission and reception of simultaneous signals, which will be the case in the envisaged use of the device according to the invention.
- the set of different signals transmitted by the device according to the invention to the digital processing unit is less than or equal to the number of different signals transmitted by a conventional game controller to a game console and interpretable by the latter.
- the advantage of this embodiment is that the device according to the invention can be more easily connected to a game console.
- the purpose of the imaging and sound process is to provide an interactive gymnastic “step” session.
