Abstract
An impact detection system includes: a memory configured to store at least one property of a structure; a sensor unit configured to detect movement of the structure and to generate movement data; and a processor configured to: receive the movement data from the sensor unit; determine, based on the movement data, whether an impact to the structure has occurred; and determine, based upon determining that the impact has occurred, the information about the impact based on the movement data and the at least one property of the structure.
Claims20
An impact detection system, the impact detection system comprising:
- a memory configured to store at least one property of a structure;
- a sensor unit configured to detect movement of the structure and to generate movement data;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- receive the movement data from the sensor unit;
- determine, based on the movement data, whether an impact to the structure has occurred;
- and
- determine, based upon determining that the impact has occurred, the information about the impact based on the movement data and the at least one property of the structure.
A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to:
- receive movement data associated with movement of a structure from a sensor unit;
- determine, based on the movement data, whether an impact to the structure has occurred;
- and
- determine, based on determining that the impact has occurred, information about the impact based on the movement data and at least one property of the structure.
