Multi-sensor monitoring of athletic performance
First Claim
1. An athletic performance monitoring system, comprising:
- a device configured to be worn by an athlete during an athletic event, the device comprising;
a user interface;
a sensor;
a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions that when executed by a processor perform at least;
receiving, from the sensor, data relating to at least one physical characteristic of an athletic performance along a route during the athletic event;
receiving from the user interface, data related to at least one physiological characteristic of the athlete during the athletic event;
calculating difficulty ratings for one or more portions of the route based on the at least one physical characteristic and the at least one physiological characteristic;
producing a view of the route simultaneously displaying the calculated difficulty ratings; and
outputting the view to the user interface.

Abstract
Athletic performance monitoring systems and methods, many of which utilize, in some manner, global positioning satellite (“GPS”) data, provide data and information to athletes and/or to equipment used by athletes during an athletic event. Such systems and methods may provide route information to athletes and/or their trainers, e.g., for pre-event planning, goal setting, and calibration purposes. Such systems and methods optionally may provide real time information to the athlete while the event takes place, e.g., to assist in reaching the pre-set goals. Additionally, data and information collected by such systems and methods may assist in post-event analysis for athletes and their trainers, e.g., to evaluate past performances and to assist in improving future performances.

12. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
-
receiving data from a first sensor worn by an athlete comprising at least one physical characteristic of an athletic performance along a route during an athletic event; receiving data from a user interface worn by the athlete comprising at least one physiological characteristic of the athlete during the athletic event; calculating difficulty ratings for one or more portions of the route based on the at least one physical characteristic and the at least one physiological characteristic of the athlete; generating with a processor, a view of the route that simultaneously displays the calculated difficulty ratings; and outputting the view to a display device. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
