1. A method for determining reaction time of an individual performing an athletic activity, the method comprising:
- receiving, at a sensor module coupled to the individual, instructions to perform an instructed movement;
sensing magnetic field data and acceleration data during a movement of the individual, using the sensor module;
comparing the magnetic field data and the acceleration data with a lookup table including a movement data profile for the instructed movement;
identifying, based on the comparison, that the movement corresponds to the movement data profile for the instructed movement; and
calculating a reaction time based on the elapsed time from receipt of the instructions to a point in time with reference to the movement of the individual.

Abstract
A method for monitoring an individual engaged in an athletic activity includes detecting movement of the individual at a first time, using a sensor module coupled to the individual, determining that the movement of the individual corresponds to a predetermined activation movement, entering an active state of the sensor module in response to the determination that the movement of the individual corresponds to the predetermined activation movement, and detecting movement of the individual at a second time, using the sensor module in the active state.

14. A method for determining reaction time of an individual performing an athletic activity, the method comprising:
-
sensing magnetic field data and acceleration data during a movement of the individual, using a sensor module; comparing the magnetic field data and the acceleration data with a lookup table including a movement data profile for the instructed movement; identifying, based on the comparison, that the movement corresponds to a specific movement data profile; and calculating a reaction time based on the elapsed time from a first point in time to a second point in time with reference to the movement of the individual and the specific movement data profile. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)

18. A method for defining a motion of an individual performing an athletic activity, the method comprising:
-
receiving, at a sensor module coupled to the individual, instructions to perform an instructed movement; sensing magnetic field data and acceleration data during a movement of the individual, using the sensor module; and storing a representation of the magnetic field data and acceleration data in a lookup table in association with the instructed movement. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
