Activity Tracking Racquet Attachment Device
First Claim
1. An activity tracking racquet attachment device comprising:
- a housing having a first face, a perimeter sidewall extending from and around said first face;
a processor coupled to said housing;
a motion detector coupled to said housing such that said motion detector detects movement of said housing, said motion detector being communicatively coupled to said processor wherein said processor receives motion data from said motion detector; and
a coupler coupled to and extending from a second face of said housing wherein said housing is configured for being coupled to an end of a handle of a racquet such that said first face of said housing faces outwardly from the end of the handle of the racquet.

Abstract
An activity tracking racquet attachment device tracks activity such as calories burned over a period of using a racquet to which the device is attached. The device includes a housing having a first face and a perimeter sidewall extending from and around the first face. A processor is coupled to the housing. A motion detector is coupled to the housing such that the motion detector detects movement of the housing. The motion detector is communicatively coupled to the processor wherein the processor receives motion data from the motion detector. A coupler is coupled to and extends from a second face of the housing coupling the housing to an end of a handle of a racquet such that the first face of the housing faces outwardly from the end of the handle.

16. An activity tracking racquet attachment device comprising:
-
a housing having a first face, a perimeter sidewall extending from and around said first face, said perimeter sidewall being angled relative to said first face such that said perimeter sidewall extends outward laterally from a peripheral edge of said first face of said housing and towards said second face of said housing, said housing defining a well extending into said first face of said housing, said housing having a notch extending from said well; a processor coupled to said housing; a motion detector coupled to said housing such that said motion detector detects movement of said housing, said motion detector being communicatively coupled to said processor wherein said processor receives motion data from said motion detector, said processor processing said motion data to determine calories burned corresponding to said motion data; a coupler coupled to and extending from a second face of said housing wherein said housing is configured for being coupled to an end of a handle of a racquet such that said first face of said housing faces outwardly from the end of the handle of the racquet; a transmitter coupled to said housing, said transmitter being communicatively coupled to said processor wherein said processor transmits said motion data to an extrinsic apparatus, said transmitter transmitting said motion data using a wireless personal access network; a speaker coupled to said housing, said speaker being operationally coupled to said processor wherein said processor broadcasts audio through said speaker; a display screen coupled to said housing, said display screen being operationally coupled to said processor wherein said processor displays images on said display screen, said display screen being parallel to and inset from said first face of said housing, said display screen being positioned in said well wherein said display screen is visible within said well; a cap, said cap being positionable in said well such that said cap covers said display screen, said cap being removably coupled to said housing for selectively exposing said display screen, an exposed portion of a perimeter edge of said cap being accessible through said notch to facilitate removal of said cap from said well; a groove extending into an inwardly facing wall defining said well, said groove being positioned in spaced relationship to said first face of said housing, said groove extending a full length around said inwardly facing wall; a lip extending outwardly from a perimeter edge of said cap, said lip being positionable in said groove coupling said cap to said housing, said lip extending fully around said perimeter edge of said cap; a timer coupled to said housing, said timer being communicatively coupled to said processor; and a receiver coupled to said housing, said receiver being communicatively coupled to said processor wherein said processor is controllable from transmissions received by said receiver.
