As attorney for the inventor of the innovative Indoor Walking Workout Facility we are currently seeking manufacturing companies to license, purchase patent rights or enter into a royalty agreement for this timely invention.

Objects of the present invention:

to provide an indoor walking workout facility that would allow a person to walk safely and comfortably regardless of the weather conditions

to provide an indoor walking workout facility wherein an air filtration system removes pollutants and toxins from the air introduced into the walking environment thereby maximizing the aerobic benefits of exercise

to provide an indoor walking workout facility with different paths offering varying levels of intensity depending on the obstacles and challenges provided such as inclines, steps, rope ladders, rock-climbing walls, etc.

to provide an indoor walking workout facility in as natural a setting as possible including living and ornamental foliage, ponds, rocks and so forth

to provide an indoor walking workout facility utilizing projections of digital images on the walls to transform an area into a visually dazzling scene that would, for example, allow a walker to stroll the flat terrain of the Mojave desert and then climb the Himalayan mountains

to provide an indoor walking workout facility that has physical information units placed intermittently along the paths to monitor the walker's vital signs and rate of progress from one unit to another

The following pictures are meant to display possible physical characteristics of the present invention and are not to be taken in a limiting sense. It is understood that other embodiments may be utilized and that structural changes may be made without departing from the scope of the invention.

PATENT DRAWINGS

FIGURE 1

Figure 1 is a perspective view of the present invention in use. Shown is a female walking along a path in a walking workout facility. She feels safe although she is walking by herself since she is in a secure building and the weather outside doesn't effect the duration or intensity of her workout. The air is filtered and the walker is not subject to the pollutants and toxins that would be taken into the body during increased cardiovascular activity outdoors.

FIGURE 2

Figure 2 is an isometric view of the present invention in use. Shown is a person walking along a path. Various inclines and steps are incorporated within certain pathways to increase the intensity of the workout. Physical information units are spaced apart and allow an exerciser to monitor his or her vital signs. The facility is segmented into several sections and allows for digital projections of various scenes to vary from section to section.

FIGURE 3

Figure 3 is a top view of the present invention showing the layout of the walking paths in relation to the various sections and the various inclines and steps incorporated within certain pathways to increase the intensity of the workout. Physical information units are spaced apart and allow an exerciser to monitor his or her vital signs. The facility is segmented into several sections and allows for digital projections of various scenes to vary from section to section.

FIGURE 4

Figure 4 is a perspective view of the present invention in use. Shown is a person walking into a rest area section of the walking workout facility. This section has a view of a mountainous region displayed by projection onto the walls. A physical information unit is located near the bench.

FIGURE 5

Figure 5 is a perspective view of the physical information unit of the present invention in use. Shown is a walker standing on a scale platform with her hands inserted into a biofeedback/progress monitoring recess in the physical information unit. Displays located on the top of the physical information unit provide data such as weight, heart rate, calories burned, miles walked during current workout, progress as opposed to previous workouts and advise the tips to achieve your most effective workout.

FIGURE 6

Figure 6 is a perspective view of a room having a multilevel configuration. Pathways can be moved from one location to another and lead from one section to another and can be redirected into another path or room.

FIGURE 7

Figure 7 is another perspective view of the room having a multilevel configuration.

FIGURE 8

Figure 8 is another perspective view of the room having a multilevel configuration.

FIGURE 9

Figure 9 is another perspective view of the room having a multilevel configuration.
