Abstract
A system for motion capture and analysis is described. The system may include a motion sensor unit configured to capture data associated with movement of an object. The motion sensor unit is configured to be directly or indirectly coupled to the movement object at a first location. The system also includes a processor to process the captured data to determine one or more values and to translate the data and/or values to correspond to a second location on the movement object located away from the first location. The data and/or values, including translated data and/or values, may be transmitted by wireless transmitter and displayed by a display unit.
Claims22
A system, comprising:
- a motion sensor unit configured to be directly or indirectly coupled to a movement object at a first location, the movement object being used in a physical sport or leisure activity, the motion sensor unit being further configured to capture data associated with movement of the movement object;
- a processor to process the data to determine one or more values associated with movement of the movement object, and to translate the data or values to correspond to a second location on the movement object located away from the first location;
- and
- a wireless transmitter to transmit at least one of the data and the values to a display unit configured to receive and graphically display at least one of the data and the values.
A system, comprising:
- a non-wearable motion sensor unit configured to be adjustably coupled to, but not mechanically integrated with, an outer surface at a first location on a movement object using an adjustable attachment mechanism, the movement object being used in physical activity,
- the non-wearable motion sensor unit being further configured to be removed from the movement object and adjustably coupled to, but not mechanically integrated with, another outer surface of another movement object using the adjustable attachment mechanism,
- the non-wearable motion sensor unit being further configured to capture data associated with movement of the movement object;
- a processor to process the data to determine one or more values and to translate at least one of the data and the values to correspond to a second location on the movement object located away from the first location;
- and
- a wireless transmitter to transmit at least one of the data and the values to a display unit configured to receive and graphically display at least one of the data and values.
A system, comprising:
- a motion sensor unit configured to be directly or indirectly coupled to a movement object at a first location, the movement object being used in a physical sport or leisure activity, the motion sensor unit being further configured to capture data associated with movement of the movement object;
- a wireless transmitter to transmit the data to a processor;
- a processor to process the data to determine one or more values associated with movement of the movement object, and to translate the data or values to correspond to a second location on the movement object located away from the first location;
- and
- a display unit to graphically display at least one of the data and the values.
A system, comprising:
- a non-wearable motion sensor unit configured to be adjustably coupled to, but not mechanically integrated with, an outer surface at a first location on a movement object using an adjustable attachment mechanism, the movement object being used in physical activity,
- the non-wearable motion sensor unit being further configured to be removed from the movement object and adjustably coupled to, but not mechanically integrated with, another outer surface of another movement object using the adjustable attachment mechanism,
- the non-wearable motion sensor unit being further configured to capture data associated with movement of the movement object,
- a wireless transmitter to transmit the data to a processor,
- a processor to process the data to determine one or more values and to translate at least one of the data and the values to correspond to a second location on the movement object located away from the first location;
- and
- a display unit to graphically display at least one of the data and values.
