Object tracking system performance display
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented tool that displays performance of an athlete tracking system that receives signals from a tracking tag located within a tracking area to determine locations of the tracking tag and an error condition due to at least one of a hardware error of the tracking system, a hardware error of the tracking tag, and a configuration error of the tracking system, the tool comprising:
- a processor;
a non-transitory memory communicatively coupled with the processor; and
a visual plotting module implemented as machine-readable instructions stored within the memory and executable by the processor to display on a graphical representation of at least part of the tracking area;
(a) a sequence of non-error symbols corresponding to the determined locations of the tracking tag, and (b) an error symbol corresponding to a last-known location, of the determined locations, immediately prior to the error condition, the error symbol indicating the error condition.

Abstract
Systems, methods and software products optimize installation and operation of an object tracking system. Performance of the athlete tracking system is continually monitored and optimized based upon one or more of: statically positioned tags, grouping tags within two or more tag sets to assign ping rates, selecting receiver configuration and aim dynamically based upon environmental and situational conditions. Tracking tags are improved to facilitate coupling of the tag to an athlete and may be self-configurable. A trackable protection pad allows a tracking tag to be positioned substantially horizontal when the athlete is competing. A data replay tool replays location tracking information in chronological order and visually plots location of tracking tags and errors in the determined location. A tag manager automatically configures the tracking tags. A robotic vehicle automated installation of the object tracking system.
