Abstract
A plot measurement system which enables a user to singlehandedly mark boundaries and features of a sports field or construction site with improved accuracy. The system utilizes a plurality of vertex markers connected by measuring leaders to provide triangulation. A three-vertex marker system can be used to construct triangles, which can then be used to construct any n-sided shape. The concept is scalable and a four-vertex marker system is presented to quickly construct quadrangle plots such as an endzone. The disclosure presents mechanical and electrical systems.
Claims14
A plot measurement system comprising:
- a plurality of vertex markers including a first vertex marker, second vertex marker, and a third vertex marker, wherein each vertex marker comprises two reels selected from the group origin reel and retractable reel,
- wherein the first vertex marker, second vertex marker, and third vertex marker are connected in pairs by an uncommon leader,
- wherein each leader traverses between an origin reel and retractable reel, and each leader has indicia corresponding to the distance between the connected vertex markers.
