Projected score area calculator and method of use
First Claim
1. A projected score area calculator comprising:
- a sensing unit comprising a plurality of sensors in communication with a plurality of transmitters, wherein the plurality of sensors is disposed in a first moving object and the plurality of transmitters is disposed in a geographic area in which the first moving object is in motion, and further wherein the sensors and transmitters generate motion data relating to a movement of the first moving object, wherein the first moving object starts the movement at a point A and stops the movement at a point B;
an environmental detection unit comprising elements for collecting environmental data relating to the environmental conditions in the geographic area in which the first moving object is in motion; and
a calculating unit having preprogrammed therein field data which defines the geographic area, wherein the calculating unit integrates the motion data, the environmental data, and the field data to extract a score factor which defines where in the geographic area a second moving object, when subjected to the same motion data and environmental data as the first moving object, should be positioned in the geographic area such that the second moving object would land at a desired location in the geographic area, wherein the desired location is different from the point B.

Abstract
A device and system for measuring variables relative to a moving object on or over a geographic area, collecting such motion data, collecting environmental data including environmental conditions in the geographic area, collecting field data including data relating to the geographic area, and using the motion data, the environmental data, and the field data to calculate a score factor which defines where on the geographic area the moving object could have been moved from to land in a desired location and transmitting that extracted data to and through a variety of media including a portable device with a display, a personal computer, a broadcasting network or other storage device or system and using that extracted data for entertainment and educational purposes.

8. A system for projecting a score area comprising:
-
a score area calculator comprising; a sensing unit comprising a plurality of sensors in communication with a plurality of transmitters, wherein the plurality of sensors is disposed in a first moving object and the plurality of transmitters is disposed in a geographic area in which the first moving object is in motion, and further wherein the sensors and transmitters generate motion data relating to a movement of the first moving object, wherein the first moving object starts the movement at a point A and stops the movement at a point B; an environmental detection unit comprising elements for collecting environmental data relating to the environmental conditions in the geographic area in which the first moving object is in motion; and a calculating unit having preprogrammed therein field data which defines the geographic area, wherein the calculating unit integrates the motion data, the environmental data, and the field data to extract a score factor which defines where in the geographic area a second moving object, when subjected to the same motion data and environmental data as the first moving object, would land at a desired location in the geographic area, wherein the desired location is different from the point B; and a transmitter for transmitting the score factor over media. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A method for determining where in a geographic area a first moving object ought to be positioned so that the first moving object will land at a desired location within the geographic location, wherein the method comprises:
-
setting the first moving object in motion and then stopping the motion so that the first moving object stops at a point A within the geographic area; collecting motion data relating to the movement of the first moving object when the first moving object is in motion; collecting environmental data relating to the environmental conditions present in the geographic area in which the first moving object is in motion; collecting field data relating to the geographic area; and deriving a score factor based on the motion data, the environmental data, and the field data, wherein the score factor indicates where in the geographic area the first moving object, when subjected to the motion data, the environmental data, and the field data, ought to have been positioned when setting the first moving object in motion in the geographic location such that the first moving object would have landed in a desired location, wherein the desired location is different from the point A. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
