1. A method comprising:

  • receiving, by a computing device, accelerometer data generated by a sportsman'"'"'s motion from an accelerometer coupled to the sportsman and in communication with the computing device;

    applying, by the computing device, a plurality of fuzzy logic membership functions to a plurality of parameters associated with the accelerometer data to detect a pattern associated with a jump, wherein detection of the pattern associated with the jump includes;

    determining a fuzzy logic initial jump probability membership function;

    determining a fuzzy logic jump start probability membership function;

    determining a fuzzy logic landing shock probability membership function;

    determining a fuzzy logic false jump probability membership function; and

    combining the jump start probability and landing shock probability membership functions together using fuzzy logic rules;

    identifying a subset of the accelerometer data representing the jump based upon the detected pattern; and

    transforming the accelerometer data, by the computing device, by separating the identified subset of accelerometer data representing the jump from accelerometer data associated with other motion by the sportsman.
