ROCK CLIMBING NAVIGATIONAL WATCH
First Claim
1. A rock climbing watch, comprising:
- a location determining component configured to determine a current geographic location of the rock climbing watch;
a sensor array configured to measure an orientation of the rock climbing watch;
a memory configured to store rock climbing navigational data; and
a processor configured to;
calculate a first angle between a starting location and a first rock face location based upon the orientation of the rock climbing watch when the rock climbing watch is pointed from the starting location towards the first rock face location, andstore the first angle as rock climbing navigational data.

Abstract
Embodiments are disclosed to calculate and store rock climbing navigational data using a rock climbing watch including a sensor array configured to measure an orientation of the rock climbing watch and a processor configured to calculate an angle between two rock face locations along a rock climbing route based upon an orientation of the rock climbing watch when it is pointed from a current rock face location towards another rock face location. A processor may determine route segments for traversing the rock climbing route. A processor may convert route climbing navigational data into a three-dimensional wireframe rock climbing navigational map including rock face locations, calculated distances and angles between rock face locations, and a rock climbing route. The rock climbing watch may present information to guide the user along a rock climbing route by displaying a graphical directional indicator and a distance to the next rock face location.

11. A rock climbing watch, comprising:
-
a communication unit configured to receive rock climbing navigational data; a memory configured to store the rock climbing navigational data, the rock climbing navigational data including a plurality of rock face locations and a plurality of rock climbing route segments for traversing a rock face, the plurality of rock face locations including a first and a second rock face location, and the plurality of rock climbing route segments indicating an angle and distance between each of the plurality of rock face locations; a processor configured to receive an input indicating that the rock climbing watch is currently located at the first rock face location; and a watch face display configured to display a direction and a distance from the first rock face location to the second rock face location upon receipt of the input, the direction and distance being based upon an angle and a distance indicated by a rock climbing route segment from among the plurality of rock climbing route segments that spans the first and second rock face locations. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
