Abstract
Provided is a treadmill-related technology. That is, the treadmill device and the operating method of the same is configured to detect a user who is taking exercise in real time, take pictures of the detected user's looks, and insert user image data as the results of data analysis, which are obtained from the taken pictures, into a virtual 3D object moving image which indicates the selected exercise course background, so as to project a 3D user image in which the user's behavior patterns are engaged with a virtual 3D object moving image. Therefore, since the treadmill device is used to allow a user to see his own looks taking exercise in real time, it is possible to prevent the user from feeling boring during exercise, and it is easy to continuously check the user's own physical status or conditions. Also, since a user may actively employ exercise course backgrounds which are freely changed during exercise by the user's choices, the best information on the physical rhythm and exercise conditions may be offered to the user, thereby improving the user's satisfaction and buying power, which leads to an expected increase in the sales.
