Assignment 2

Below is a picture of my idea of an interesting physical fitness room.
The idea is developed from several concepts of human nature:

  • One is that people have a natural inclination of going the opposite way
  • As seen in beginning portion of the circuit, the person doing the exercise begins by going against an escalator
  • In addition: the circuit is built so the runner can run against the conveyer belt
    • Unlike traditional treadmills, the runner is able to move in a forward direction
    • By placing automatic doors at key separation walls, allows the runner to have motivation to move on
  • Second is that doing exercise while having fun
  • The runner presets the time of his or her exercise (after running up an escalator) by presetting a certain chapter of a movie
  • The chapter will run if and only if the runner is doing exercise
  • In addition each exercise area is made to improve the quality of your movie enjoyment
    • The “bike area” is made so that the biker plays a game of “tag”
    • The gooal of the biker is to capture his or her own movie to be watched during the remainder of the exercise
    • The wait lifting section is designed to enhance the quality of the movie
    • Everytime the person lifts the weight, the quality becomes slightly better
  • If the exercising person stops or gives up (riding the conveyer belt back to original position, the movie will shut off
  • There is a motivation to come back to exercise, because the exercising person only sees a portion of the movie
