Abstract

An interactive device for interactively operating music and speech with moving frequencies of exercisers comprises a sensor for sensing the moving frequency of the exerciser, and converting the frequency as signals for outputting; and the sensor is installed to a moving range of the exerciser which has a sector area; and a speech rhythm system for receiving the frequency signal from the sensor; the speech rhythm system; and for displaying music and speech according to the received signals in the speech rhythm system. The device is used with an exercise machine. The speech rhythm system includes a data microprocessor, an audio frequency output device, a built in music IC device, a speech device, a display and a plurality of adjust switches. The data microprocessor sets the moving frequency of the exerciser is based on the rhythm of the music IC.

Claims

1. An interactive device for interactively operating music and speech with moving frequencies of exercisers, the device comprising:

a sensor for sensing the moving frequency of the exerciser, and converting the frequency into frequency signals for outputting, and the sensor being installed in a moving range of the exerciser which has a sector area;

a speech rhythm system for receiving the frequency signal from the sensor;

the speech rhythm system; and

for displaying music and speech according to the received signals in the speech rhythm system.

2. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the device is used with an exercise machine which circularly move around an axial center or move forwards and backwards repeatedly, or move upwards and downwards reciprocally.

3. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the exercise machine is selected from one of a group containing a running machine, a treading machine, an elliptical orbit exercise machine;

a health treading machine;

a boxing training machine, a rhythm treading plate, a waist exercise machine, a horse-like exercise machine, and an elastic bed.

4. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the speech rhythm system includes a data microprocessor, an audio frequency output device, a built in music IC device, a speech device, a display and a plurality of adjust switches.

5. The device as claimed in claim 3, wherein the audio frequency output device serves to output the music from the music IC and the speech from the speech device;

the display displays the exercise time, moving frequency and times;

scores, and consumed heats;

the adjust switches include song selection buttons, time interval setting buttons, action times setting buttons, audio output buttons, score estimation buttons, data clear buttons; and

the data microprocessor serves to play music according to the moving frequency of the exerciser in a preset time internal,

wherein the data microprocessor sets the moving frequency of the exerciser is based on the rhythm of the music IC so that the rhythm of the music from the music IC is controlled by the moving frequency of the exerciser.

6. The device as claimed in claim 4, wherein data microprocessor actuate the score estimation button which estimate scores according to the moving frequency of the exercisers.
