Tagocycle Co., Ltd. (CEO Minseong Kang, Subin Kim) announced that it will participate in the ‘4 World IT Show (WIS 19)’ held at COEX in Seoul from Wednesday, April 21th to Friday, April 2023st.
Tagocycle is a sports spinning venture company that aims for a healthy life for modern people. Spinning is known as a high-intensity full-body exercise that burns 1 calories per hour. Unlike overseas, where it has established itself as a popular sport, it has not been universalized in Korea due to barriers to experience. Accordingly, Tagocycle focuses on the appeal of spinning as a sport and is developing online platforms and bikes in addition to offline centers by combining K-POP music, AI, and IoT technology.
In addition to the AI motion recognition cycle (Tago Stand) product, we are developing the K-POP AI rhythm game ‘SPIN THE BEAT’ with leading domestic spinning instructors, and provide differentiated spinning through the operation of an offline exclusive spinning center. A program is being provided.
AI TAGO STAND, currently being developed by Tagocycle, is a home fitness equipment that allows users to exercise while enjoying a systematic spinning program through a digital screen monitor. AI motion recognition technology and IoT handle technology equipped with eight sensors were developed to implement accurate movements according to the music desired by each user. In addition, the information collected through big data technology combined with this is provided as analysis results for each user’s health management, providing customized exercise methods for each user.
In addition, Tagocycle provides a smart exercise space platform that allows you to exercise easily and conveniently anywhere in your daily life through O2O services. The company explained that SPIN THE BEAT provides different levels of difficulty for each user and provides a variety of content for each music genre, leading to high motivation through various competition systems and challenges. The plan is to use the measured data to provide exercise content optimized for each individual to provide higher exercise effectiveness, and to continuously improve upon the product launch in 2023 to become a product that encompasses global consumers.
This exhibition will demonstrate hardware (AI TAGO STAND) and software (SPINNING RHYTHM GAME).
AI TAGO STAND is a wireless moving wheel that allows you to exercise anytime, anywhere. In addition, the screen height and camera height and angle can be freely adjusted, so it can be applied to a variety of exercises, including spinning, yoga, and pilates. Tago Stand’s motion recognition function accurately detects posture and transmits it to the 24-inch display, increasing immersion in the game. The touch screen that allows intuitive operation is also one of the product’s strengths. IoT DIGITAL BIKE can accurately recognize the user’s upper and lower body movements using handle and pedal sensors, and provides various actions (notes) to the game to increase immersion. By analyzing the user’s movements, it analyzes the user’s posture accurately and recommends customized exercise, and provides continuous motivation for exercise by accurately measuring the amount of exercise.
In the rhythm game SPIN THE BEAT, you can play the game by selecting the desired K-POP song and instructor and following the movements. An instructor icon (pictogram) is displayed at the bottom left of the video, and the integrated AI motion recognition technology recognizes the user’s full body movements.
Products will go through a sequential update process including milestones 12, 1, and 2 until December of this year, and AI TAGO STAND products corresponding to milestone 3 will be released in April of this year. It is planned to enable wireless communication, battery charging handle, voice recognition function, and pedal function, as well as 1 song content and extreme content.
Milestone 4, which is in the planning stage from April to September, will allow GX home training in real time with other users, and a metaverse will be established where various user characters can exercise together. In addition, the motion recognition function will guide accurate movements and enable various exercises such as spinning, Zumba, aerobics, and intervals. Milestone 9, which runs from September to December, will add member-related functions, provide and manage exercise information, add a level and ranking system, and provide a reward function based on exercise amount. A customized playlist will be provided according to the user’s play style, and a battle mode that can be played with other users will be introduced.
