Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A training system for training of part of a trainee's body includes a training machine, a control device controlling the training machine, and a display unit displaying a game screen. The training machine imposes a load on the trainee, with an MR-fluid load generating unit using MR fluid, which has viscosity varying with a magnetic field strength. The load is calculated on the basis of a target load and a relationship between the current in the MR-fluid load generating unit and the load generated by the MR-fluid load generating unit. The control device produces the game screen in correspondence with the trainee's training motion detected by a displacement detection sensor, and makes the display unit display the game screen, while controlling the load in the training machine.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A training system for training of a predetermined part of a body of a trainee, comprising: a training machine; a control device configured to control the training machine; and a display unit configured to display a game screen during training of a trainee; wherein the training machine includes: a Magneto Rheological fluid (MR-fluid) load generating unit configured to generate a load to be exerted on the trainee, by using an MR-fluid having variable v…
