Sport performance system with ball sensing
First Claim
1. An apparatus for use with a portable performance system including a processor, a memory and a display, the training apparatus comprising:
- an American-style football;
at least one sensor carried by the football to sense at least one attribute of the football;
at least one transmitter coupled to the football and operably coupled to the sensor; and
a non-transient computer-readable medium containing code to direct the processor to;
determine at least one football event by comparing the at least one attribute of the football to one or more predetermined signature characteristics of different football events; and
an output device to present output to a person based on the determination of the at least one football event.

Abstract
A apparatus for use with a portable performance system. The portable performance system includes a processor, a memory and a display. The training apparatus includes an American-style football, at least one sensor coupled to the football, at least one transmitter coupled to the football and operably coupled to the sensor, and a non-transient computer-readable medium containing code. The code directs the processor to: determine at least one football event by comparing the at least one attribute of the football to one or more predetermined signature characteristics of different football events; and an output device to present output to a person based on the determination of the at least one football event.
