Abstract
A control device for a jogging machine includes a stepping board, and a plurality of non-touch sensors arranged in line spaced apart equidistantly on two sides of the stepping board for sensing the position of the two feet of a user dropping on the stepping board for a controller to figure out the speed of the user and then adjust the speed of a moving band moving on and below the stepping board. The control device automatically adjusts the speed of the moving band to suit to the speed of the user's feet. Further, the control device has two angle adjusting sensors respectively fixed on two sides of a handle for adjusting the inclining angle of the stepping board by the user extending a hand nearer to either of the two adjusting sensors.
