ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A device for translating exercise movement from a mechan- ical repetitive exercise means into the motion of a marker on a tele- vision screen. The device comprises a frequency monitoring means to be associated with a mechanical repetitive exercise means to convert the frequency of repetition of the exercise means into electronic pulses of related frequency. An electronic control means is provided to be electronically connected to receive input from the frequency monitoring means and to be electronically associated with a video screen. The electronic control means comprises input scanning means to scan input pulses received from the frequency monitoring means, and a microprocessor electronically associated with the input scanning means and, when operational, a video screen to translate frequency of pulses to a corresponding rate of motion in a given direction for a marker on the video screen. The device preferably further comprises a turn control means manually actuable by the operator to provide electronic signals to identify a degree of turn for the operator, the electronic control means to translate such signals into a corresponding direction of motion for the marker on the video screen. The electronic control means may also comprise memory means electronically associated with the microprocessor for storing one or more basic game patterns according to which the motion of the marker will be affected. Such device permits one or more operators of mechanical repetitive exercise means to coordinate the motion of one or more corresponding markers on a video screen with the operation of that exercise means.
