A System and Methodology for Non-Contact Measurement of a Wheel Speed: a Case Study on Cardio Machines

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: In this study, a novel approach for measuring the velocity of a wheel is proposed. The paper specifically focuses on determining wheel dimensions such as radius, diameter, or circumference in order to calculate speed. The proposed algorithm can be used where the exact dimension of the wheel is unknown or difficult to measure. This article presents the use of the proposed solution for measuring the speed of rollers that move the belt on a training treadmill. The originality of approach presented in this paper is confirmed by patent number WO2022089764A1.
