Abstract
In an approach to matching athletes for participation in an event, a system may include: a Global Positioning System (GPS) device; a display with a user interface (UI); and one or more computer processors. A first activity data for a user is retrieved from the GPS device. Second activity data is obtained from other athletes that have expressed interest in participating in the event. The first activity data is compared against the second activity data from the other athletes to create recommendations, where the recommendations match one or more types of activities the user participates in and the skill level of the user. The recommendations are displayed to the user on the UI.
Claims20
A system for matching athletes for participation in an event, the system comprising:
- a Global Positioning System (GPS) device;
- a display with a user interface (UI);
- one or more computer processors, the one or more computer processors configured to:
- retrieve a first activity data for a user from the GPS device;
- obtain one or more second activity data from one or more other athletes that have expressed interest in participating in the event;
- compare the first activity data against the one or more second activity data from the one or more other athletes to create one or more recommendations, wherein the one or more recommendations match one or more types of activities the user participates in and a skill level of the user;
- and
- display the one or more recommendations to the user on the UI.
A computer-implemented method for matching athletes for participation in an event, the computer-implemented method comprising:
- retrieving, by one or more computer processors, a first activity data for a user from a Global Positioning System (GPS) device;
- obtaining, by the one or more computer processors, one or more second activity data from one or more other athletes that have expressed interest in participating in the event;
- comparing, by the one or more computer processors, the first activity data against the one or more second activity data from the one or more other athletes to create one or more recommendations, wherein the one or more recommendations match one or more types of activities the user participates in and a skill level of the user;
- and
- sending, by the one or more computer processors, the one or more recommendations to the user.
