1. A method comprising:

  • measuring, by a gyroscope, angular velocity of one or more of an actor and the actor'"'"'s equipment over a time period;

    measuring, by an accelerometer, acceleration of one or more of the actor and the actor'"'"'s equipment over the time period;

    monitoring, by a Hall effect sensor, a speed of the actor'"'"'s equipment before the time period, during the time period, or after the time period;

    receiving, by a computer system, sensor data related to motion over the time period by one or more of the actor and the actor'"'"'s equipment, wherein the sensor data includes the measured angular velocity and the measured acceleration;

    determining, by the computer system and based on the sensor data, a plurality of motion characteristics; and

    identifying, based on the plurality of motion characteristics and the monitored speed of the actor'"'"'s equipment, an athletic maneuver associated with the motion during the time period.
