WEARABLE DEVICE AND OPERATION METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18076467 titled 'WEARABLE DEVICE AND OPERATION METHOD THEREOF

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a wearable device that includes a motor, a motor driver circuit, a frame, a processor, and a sensor. The device is designed to support the body of the user and provide an exercise load based on the user's body motion.

The wearable device includes a motor, motor driver circuit, frame, processor, and sensor.
The frame is worn on the user's body to support their body.
The processor generates a control signal to control the motor driver circuit.
The sensor detects the body motion of the user.
The processor adjusts the exercise load provided by the frame based on the speed of the user's body motion.
The exercise load is controlled by changing the electrical connection in the motor driver circuit between a closed loop and an open loop.

Potential applications of this technology:

Fitness and exercise devices that provide adjustable resistance based on the user's body motion.
Rehabilitation devices that assist in supporting and providing resistance during physical therapy.
Virtual reality systems that provide haptic feedback based on the user's movements.

Problems solved by this technology:

Provides a wearable device that can support the body and provide an exercise load based on the user's body motion.
Allows for adjustable resistance during exercise or rehabilitation activities.
Enables haptic feedback in virtual reality systems to enhance the user's immersion and interaction.

Benefits of this technology:

Provides a more personalized and tailored exercise experience based on the user's body motion.
Can assist in rehabilitation and physical therapy by providing support and resistance.
Enhances the user's immersion and interaction in virtual reality systems through haptic feedback.

Original Abstract Submitted

A wearable device may include a motor, a motor driver circuit, a frame connected to the motor, the frame to be worn on the body of the user to support the body, a processor configured to generate a control signal to control an electrical connection in the motor driver circuit, and a sensor configured to sense a body motion of the user. The processor is further configured to provide an exercise load through the frame according to a speed of the sensed body motion by controlling, based on the speed of the body motion, a changing ratio per time between a first control state in which the electrical connection in the motor driver circuit is a closed loop and a second control state in which the electrical connection in the motor driver circuit is an open loop.
