Abstract
Systems and methods of motion tracking are disclosed that can be used in connection with sports motion. Such a method can include placing one or more inertial measurement units (IMUs) on at least one of a person or one or more pieces of equipment, recording motion data associated with the at least one of the person or the one or more pieces of equipment, and synchronizing the recorded motion data. The method can also include analyzing the synchronized motion data in connection with a motion standard, and generating feedback based at least in part on the analyzed motion data.
Claims20
A system that facilitates motion tracking, comprising:
- a control component that receives and synchronizes motion data monitored by each of a set of one or more inertial measurement units (IMUs) that are associated with at least one of a person or a piece of equipment;
- and
- an analysis component that analyzes the synchronized motion data in connection with a motion standard and generates feedback based at least in part on the analysis.
A method of motion tracking, comprising:
- capturing motion data associated with at least one of a person or one or more pieces of equipment via one or more inertial measurement units (IMUs) on at least one of the person or the one or more pieces of equipment;
- synchronizing the captured motion data;
- analyzing the synchronized motion data in connection with a motion standard;
- and
- generating feedback based at least in part on the analyzed motion data.
