The engineering.....
All the information above has also guided the engineering capabilities and design of my machines since day one. As the energy and ergonomic function of the machine has had to match what I wanted to deliver into the human body to a very precise degree.
It is also why the shape and function of my machines are like nothing else on the market. And the kind of high kinetic energy vibration I produce, but then bring down into an extremely controlled 1mm movement sometimes seems like an oxy-moron to others in the industry. Who want to promote higher amplitude and faster speeds to a degree you can see the person being thrown around.This is the complete opposite of my mentality and methods.
Note: I received my training in engineering in the Armed Forces ( Navy ).Vibration is the enemy of all things steel and electrical. But my personal fascination for physics allowed me to innovate and invent certain aspects of design that allow me to surpass the normal limitations of these machines. And give them the ergonomic factors I wanted.
Something else to ponder...
Once you know the history of the industry. Who designed machines and their motives behind each design ( which I will be disclosing here on this page in articles ) It will become obvious there were some very smart people involved with good intentions, but many only had one vision, just one task they wanted to complete for research purposes. Hence the original machines they made have a limited design. Nothing wrong with that, but just from an engineering and ergonomic point of view, when trying to produce a complete whole body program that does all it can for someone, logic would suggest to be forced to use a machine designed years ago for one task only would be highly frustrating. If not impossible. And indeed it is.
The fact is the theory behind Vibration Therapy and Training is sound, but often let down by the engineering, then that is covered up by the marketers. And " what does my machine NOT do I wish it did " is not something you will hear often enough. If ever. So development is dead in 99% of companies. I have no idea what their R&D team do. It is why you see the same couple of old designs get copied over and over again.
I hope my work breaks the mold in a number of ways, and I also hope by doing so we can live up to the promise VT has but because of the various factors mentioned above, has yet to reach.
Kind regards Lloyd Shaw
