First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for generating move data from a physical activity, comprising:
- providing a sensor for each user in the physical activity, at least one sensor for a ball or implement used during the physical activity;
gathering raw data from each sensor being used in the physical activity;
processing the raw data from each sensor into one or more pieces of move data for the physical activity;
outputting the one or more pieces of move data using an interface; and
using the one or more pieces of move data by one of a social network and a virtual game.

Abstract
A system and method for capturing and using move data from a user are disclosed. The system may use one or more sensors to capture raw data about a physical activity of the user. The raw data about the physical activity of the user may be processed into one or more pieces of move data relating to the physical activity of the user. The processed move data may be used for various purposes, such as, for example, to play a virtual game, to provide to a social network system or to provide training to the user.

9. An apparatus for generating move data from game play with sensor-containing accessories, comprising:
-
a computer implemented move data processor that receives raw data from at least one sensor associated with a ball being used for a physical activity and at least one sensor from a user participating in the physical activity and generates one or more pieces of move data for the physical activity based on the raw data from the sensors; an interface, coupled to the computer implemented move data processor, that outputs the pieces of move data for the physical activity; and one of a social network and a virtual game that uses the one or more pieces of move data. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
