The AutoSpot was designed by myself and a classmate at the University of South Florida in my senior year. The intention of this device is to allow a person to bench press without the aid of a spotter. If the weightlifter is unable to lift the weights, he/she can kick the foot pedal and the electric motor engages to assist the lifter in pulling the weight off. |

The animated GIF below shows what the system would look like if the motor was engaged to assist the lifter.
