SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CALCULATING PROJECTED IMPACT GENERATED BY SPORTS IMPLEMENTS AND GAMING EQUIPMENT
First Claim
1. A system for projecting and modeling an impact on an object, the system comprising:
- an electronic memory configured to store;
at least one first measurement received from a sensor associated with a subject of impact that includes one or more characteristics of movement of the subject in response to an external stimuli,at least one second measurement received from a sensor associated with an object of impact, andcollected statistical data on impacts of the subject on the object in previous situations; and
a computer processor coupled to the memory and configured to execute;
a projection tool configured to calculate a probability of a projected impact of the subject on the object in a current situation before the actual impact based at least on the one or more characteristics of movement of the subject and the collected statistical information, wherein the projection tool further determines that the projected impact of the subject on the object will occur when the calculated probability of the projected impact is above a threshold; and
a modeling tool configured to generate a model of movement of the object in response to the impact by the subject based at least on the projected impact determined by the projection tool and one or more rules defining a movement of the object based on the projected impact by the subject, wherein the modeling tool is configured to determine a correspondence between the model of movement of the object and the actual movement of the object after the impact to improve modeling, and wherein the modeling tool is configured to stop generation of the model of movement when a rule of the one or more rules is fulfilled.

Abstract
Disclosed are systems and methods of calculating projected impact generated by sports and gaming implements. An exemplary method comprises: receiving a measurement from a sensor associated with a subject of impact; receiving a measurement from a sensor associated with an object of impact; wherein the at least one received measurement includes one or more characteristics of movement of the subject in response to an external stimuli and one or more characteristics of movement of the object in response to the impact by the subject; calculating, by a projection tool, a projected impact of the subject on the object before the actual impact; and calculating, by a modeling tool, a model of movement of the object in response to the impact by the subject based at least on the projected impact and one or more rules defining a movement of the object based on the projected impact by the subject.
