Systems and methods for determining performance data
DCFirst Claim
1. A system for determining performance data of a moving person, comprising a monolithic protective housing for attachment to the moving person or to a non-motorized vehicle ridden by the person, one or more sensors configured within the housing for generating signals indicative of movement, a microprocessor configured within the housing for processing the signals to determine the performance data, and a wireless transmitter configured within the housing for generating wireless signals indicative of the performance data.

Abstract
The invention determines performance data during activity of a person. A microprocessor and a sensor, such as a GPS sensor, attach to the person or to a vehicle ridden by the person. The sensor and microprocessor may integrate in clothing or in a watch worn by the person. Wireless signals may be generated to a remote base station or to a watch. Performance data may for example include speed, drop distance, airtime and power.

- 9. A system for determining performance data of a moving person, comprising a watch for attachment to the person, a GPS sensor configured with the watch for generating signals indicative of movement, a microprocessor configured within the watch for processing the signals to determine the performance data for display at the watch.
- 15. A method for determining the performance data associated with a moving person, comprising sensing movement of the moving person via one or more sensors, including a GPS sensor, attached to the person or to a vehicle ridden by the person, processing the signals via a processor coupled with the sensors and also attached to the person or to the vehicle to determine the performance data, and wirelessly communicating the performance data to a remote receiver.
- 19. A wearable sensor system, comprising at least one sensor sewn to an article of clothing for generating a signal indicative of movement of a person wearing the article of clothing, a processor sewn to the article of clothing for processing the signal to determine performance data, and a wireless transmitter sewn to the article of clothing for generating wireless signals indicative of the performance data.
