MONITORING OF PHYSICAL TRAINING EVENTS
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented athletic performance analysis method, comprising:
- obtaining, at a computer system, first motion data generated by a test subject moving a test ball containing motion sensors through a predetermined exercise;
analyzing in the first motion data, with the computer system, the data from the inertial sensors; and
providing to a remote computer at a location of the subject a report regarding the first motion data, the report reflecting a comparison of the first motion data with corresponding motion data of other users who have performed the predetermined exercise.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method is disclosed that includes instructing a human player to perform a plurality of different actions in a determined order with a physical basketball, including actions of bouncing the physical basketball, and obtaining, with one or more electronic sensors, data that characterizes motion of the physical basketball being handled by the human player who is performing the instructed actions at a location. The method also includes communicating the data from the sensors to a console videogame system that is proximate to the location, and graphically representing, in a videogame displayed on a display device, performance by the human player, the performance being affected by the captured data, the representation of performance by the human player being compared against a standard of performance.

4. A computer-implemented method of capturing data indicative of athletic performance, comprising:
-
creating an event in a computer system; assigning a package of athletic drills to the event; registering an athlete with the computer system; correlating the athlete to the event; receiving data generated by motion sensors that are attached to the athlete or an object manipulated by the athlete during execution of he exercises; processing the received data to generate summary information that is descriptive of the athlete'"'"'s performance; and making the summary information available over a network for review to users of the computer system who are authorized to see information about the athlete. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6, 7)

8. An electronic sporting measurement method, comprising:
-
measuring motion of a sports ball using one or more motion detectors of an electronics assembly mounted inside the sports ball; forming a data communication link between the electronics assembly and a consumer electronics device; transmitting data that represents motion of the ball from the electronics assemble to the consumer electronics device; and analyzing the transmitted data or further transmitting the data with the consumer electronics device for producing data that reflects a skill level of a person who handled the sports ball while motion of the sports ball was measured. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
