SYSTEMS, DEVICES, AND METHODS FOR RECORDING AND TRANSMITTING DATA
First Claim
1. A sensor for measuring data, comprising:
- a housing;
a circuit board assembly disposed with the housing, the circuit board assembly including a wireless transmission element and at least one of an accelerometer, a gyroscope, and a magnetometer; and
a power source electrically coupled to the circuit board assembly to provide power to components of the circuit board assembly;
wherein the sensor is configured to be attached to an object and measure data associated with the object regardless of an orientation of a coordinate system of the sensor with respect to an orientation of a coordinate system of the object.

Abstract
Systems, devices, and methods for recording and transmitting data are provided. The systems, devices, and methods can be used in a variety of contexts, including in conjunction with swinging devices and prosthetics. In one exemplary embodiment, the sensor is configured in a manner that allows it be omni-directional such that its orientation with respect to the object for which it is detecting data is irrelevant to the ability to accurately record and transmit data. In another exemplary embodiment, the system allows a user to use the same sensor across multiple platforms, such as using it for golf and prosthetics, for golf and tennis, or for a regular golf swing and a putting stroke. Other devices, systems, methods, and uses of the same are also provided.

10. A system for use in multiple swinging contexts, comprising:
-
a sensor configured to be associated with multiple types of swinging devices; and a control application configured to communicate with the sensor to adjust operation parameters that correlate with the type of swinging device to which the sensor is attached, wherein data that is determined and transmitted by the sensor is based on a type of use for the sensor selected using the control application. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A method for measuring data, comprising:
-
attaching a sensor to an object at any orientation such that a coordinate system of the sensor is located at any location with respect to an akin coordinate system of the object; instructing the sensor to detect particular types of data based on the type of object to which the sensor is attached; and receiving data from the sensor based on the types of data the sensor is instructed to detect. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
