MOTION EVENT RECOGNITION SYSTEM AND METHOD
First Claim
1. A motion event recognition system comprising:
- at least one motion capture element configured to couple with a user or piece of equipment or mobile device coupled with the user, wherein said at least one motion capture element comprisesa memory;
a sensor configured to capture any combination of values associated with an orientation, position, velocity, acceleration of said at least one motion capture element;
a radio;
a microcontroller coupled with said memory, said sensor and said radio wherein said microcontroller is configured tocollect data that comprises sensor values from said sensor;
store said data in said memory;
analyze said data and recognize an event within said data to determine event data;
transmit said event data associated with said event via said radio;
a mobile device comprisinga computer;
a wireless communication interface configured tocommunicate with said radio to obtain said event data associated with said event;
wherein said computer is coupled with wireless communication interface wherein said computer is configured toreceive said event data from said wireless communication interface;
analyze said event data to form motion analysis data;
store said event data, or said motion analysis data, or both said event data and said motion analysis data;
display information comprising said event data, or said motion analysis data, or both associated with said at least one user on a display.

Abstract
Enables recognition of events within motion data including but not limited to motion capture data obtained from portable wireless motion capture elements such as visual markers and sensors, radio frequency identification tags and motion sensors within mobile device computer systems, or calculated based on analyzed movement associated with the same user, other user, historical user or group of users. Provides low power transmission of events. Greatly reduces storage for events such as a shot, move or swing of a player, a concussion of a player, boxer, rider or driver, or a heat stroke, hypothermia, seizure, asthma attack, epileptic attack. Events may be correlated with image(s) as captured from internal/external camera(s) or nanny cam, for example to enable saving video of the event, such as the first steps of a child, violent shaking events, sporting, military or other motion events including concussions, or falling events associated with an elderly person.
