Abstract

A method includes receiving a video input, receiving an indication of a first segment type corresponding to a first workout activity being performed in the video input, and generating a segmented timeline with the processor, the segmented timeline including a plurality of segments, and at least one segment of the plurality of segments corresponding to the first workout activity. The method further includes generating a user interface with the processor, the user interface including the segmented timeline displayed together with at least part of the video input. The method also includes providing the user interface to a plurality of exercise machines via a network.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method, comprising:
receiving, with a processor, video input data associated with an exercise class;
receiving, with the processor, a first indication of a first workout activity being performed at a first time and for a first duration in the video input data and a second indication of a second workout activity being performed at a second time and for a second duration in the video input data;
generating a segmented timeline comprising a visual representation of the exercise class, the segmented timeline having an overall length corresponding to an overall duration of the exercise class, a first segment having a first segment length corresponding to the first duration, and a second segment having a second segment length corresponding to the second duration, wherein the segmented timeline includes first visual indicia representative of the first workout activity and second visual indicia representative of the second workout activity;
generating, with the processor, a graphical user interface including the segmented timeline displayed together with at least part of the video input data; and
causing the graphical user interface to be displayed on a display of an exercise machine.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first workout activity or the second workout activity comprising at least one of bicycling, running, walking, aerobics, stretching, or weightlifting.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the graphical user interface further includes a leaderboard displayed together with the segmented timeline and the at least part of the video input data, the leaderboard indicating relative performances of a plurality of participants in the exercise class.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the segmented timeline includes a first indication of elapsed time and a second indication of a time.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the video input data comprises a video feed received from at least one recording device disposed within a performance studio.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving sensor information associated with a user participating in the exercise class using the exercise machine.

7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising:
receiving, with the processor, second sensor information associated with a second user participating in the exercise class, simultaneously with the first user, using a second exercise machine;
generating a leaderboard indicating a first performance metric of the first user and a second performance metric of the second user, the first performance metric being determined based at least in part on the first sensor information, and the second performance metric being determined based at least in part on the second sensor information; and
causing the leaderboard to be displayed on at least one of the display of the exercise machine or a second display of the second exercise machine.

8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the sensor information comprises at least one of speed, heart rate, distance, hydration, respiration, cadence, or output of the first user, and wherein the sensor information is received by the processor via a network.

9. A system, comprising:
a processor;
an exercise machine in communication with the processor via a network, the exercise machine including a display; and
memory in communication with the processor and storing instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving video input data associated with an exercise class,
receiving a first indication of a first workout activity being performed at a first time and for a first duration in the video input data and a second indication of a second workout activity being performed at a second time and for a second duration in the video input data,
generating a user interface including a segmented timeline displayed together with at least part of the video input data, the segmented timeline having an overall size representative of a total duration of the exercise class, a first segment having a first size representative of the first duration, and a second segment having a second size representative of the second duration, wherein the segmented timeline includes first visual indicia indicative of the first workout activity and second visual indicia indicative of the second workout activity; and
causing the user interface to be displayed on a display associated with the exercise machine via the network.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein at least one of the first workout activity or the second workout activity comprising at least one of bicycling, running, walking, aerobics, stretching, or weightlifting.

11. The system of claim 9 , wherein the user interface further includes a leaderboard displayed together with the segmented timeline and the at least part of the video input data, the leaderboard indicating relative performances of a plurality of participants in the exercise class.

12. The system of claim 9 , wherein the segmented timeline includes a first indication of elapsed time and a second indication of a time.

13. The system of claim 9 , wherein the video input data comprises a video feed received from at least one recording device disposed within a performance studio.

14. The system of claim 9 , the operations further comprising: receiving sensor information associated with a user participating in the exercise class using the exercise machine.

15. The system of claim 14 , the operations further comprising:
receiving second sensor information associated with a second user participating in the exercise class, simultaneously with the first user, using a second exercise machine;
generating a leaderboard indicating a first performance metric of the first user and a second performance metric of the second user, the first performance metric being determined based at least in part on the first sensor information, and the second performance metric being determined based at least in part on the second sensor information; and
causing the leaderboard to be displayed on at least one of the display of the exercise machine or a second display of the second exercise machine.

16. The system of claim 14 , wherein the first sensor information comprises at least one of speed, heart rate, distance, hydration, respiration, cadence, or output of the user.

17. A method, comprising:
receiving, with a processor, an indication of a first workout activity performed at a first time and for a first duration during an exercise class and a second indication of a second workout performed at a second time and for a second duration during the exercise class;
generating a segmented timeline with the processor, the segmented timeline including a first segment including a first visual representation corresponding to the first workout and a second visual representation corresponding to the second workout, the first visual representation having a first size corresponding to the first duration and the second visual representation having a second size corresponding to the second duration, wherein the segmented timeline includes first visual indicia indicative of the first workout activity and second visual indicia indicative of the second workout activity;
generating a user interface with the processor, the user interface including the segmented timeline displayed together with video of the exercise class;
causing the user interface to be displayed on a display of an exercise machine;
receiving, with the processor, sensor information associated with a user participating in the exercise cl
