Abstract
Systems and techniques for facilitating archery implemented in conjunction with a bow mountable laser-based speed measurement instrument or a speed sensor bar as well as a bow movement sensor system which may be affixed to any of the available mounting positions on a conventional bow.
Claims8
A user induced bow shake sensor system mountable to said bow comprising:
- a shake sensing module, said shake sensing module comprising a rate gyro and an associated analog to digital converter;
- a communication module coupled to said shake sensing module;
- a bow shake indicator coupled to said shake sensing module;
- a power source for said shake sensing and communication modules as well as said bow shake indicator;
- and
- an associated processor coupled to said shake sensing and communication modules for calculating shake of said bow and determining an approximate center of said user induced bow shake and informing said user through said bow shake indicator whether said user induced bow shake is within a certain established tolerance of said determined approximate center.

A system for an archery bow comprising:
- an arrow speed measurement instrument, said instrument attachable to said bow and directable toward an arrow flown from said bow;
- a processor associated with said instrument for calculating a speed of said flown arrow;
- and
- a sensor bar mountable to a stabilizer mounting position on said bow for directing light toward an arrow flown from said bow, said sensor bar comprising first and second light emitting and detecting pairs of light emitting diodes and associated detectors respectively displaced along a length of said sensor bar and wherein said sensor bar is operatively coupled to said processor for calculating said speed of said flown arrow.
