Multi-sensor monitoring of athletic performance
First Claim
1. An athletic performance monitoring system, comprising:
- a device configured to be worn by an athlete during an athletic event, the device comprising;
a display;
a sensor;
an input device configured to receive input data relating to a route to be used during an athletic event;
a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions that when executed by a processor perform at least;
receiving input data from the input device comprising route information;
receiving, from the sensor, athletic sensor data relating to an athletic performance along the route during the athletic event;
producing an actual or animated view of the route simultaneously displaying information from the input data relating to the route and from the athletic sensor data relating to the athletic performance so as to provide data playback of the athletic performance over the route of the athletic event; and
output the actual or animated view to the display,wherein the playback of the athletic performance between a first location and a second location of the route of the athletic event is set at a first playback speed, andwherein the first playback speed is based on, at least in part, a route difficulty rating for the route or a corresponding portion of the route between the first location and the second location.

Abstract
Athletic performance monitoring systems and methods, many of which utilize, in some manner, global positioning satellite (“GPS”) data, provide data and information to athletes and/or to equipment used by athletes during an athletic event. Such systems and methods may provide route information to athletes and/or their trainers, e.g., for pre-event planning, goal setting, and calibration purposes. Such systems and methods optionally may provide real time information to the athlete while the event takes place, e.g., to assist in reaching the pre-set goals. Additionally, data and information collected by such systems and methods may assist in post-event analysis for athletes and their trainers, e.g., to evaluate past performances and to assist in improving future performances.

12. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
-
receiving input data from an input device comprising route information of an athletic event; receiving athletic sensor data from a sensor worn by an athlete during the athletic event, relating to an athletic performance along the route during the athletic event; generating with a processor, based upon the athletic sensor data and the input data comprising the route information, an actual or animated view of the route that simultaneously displays information from the input data relating to the route and from the athletic sensor data relating to the athletic performance so as to provide data playback of the athletic performance over the route of the athletic event; outputting the actual or animated view to a display device; and setting the data playback of the athletic performance on the route of the athletic event spanning between a first location and a second location at a first playback speed, wherein the first playback speed between the first and second locations is based, at least in part, according to a change in elevation of a user between the first location and the second location. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. An athletic performance monitoring system, comprising:
a device configured to be worn by an athlete during an athletic event, the device comprising; a display; a sensor; an input device configured to receive input data relating to a route to be used during an athletic event; a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions that when executed by a processor perform at least; receiving input data from the input device comprising route information; receiving, from the sensor, athletic sensor data relating to an athletic performance along the route during the athletic event; producing an actual or animated view of the route simultaneously displaying information from the input data relating to the route and from the athletic sensor data relating to the athletic performance so as to provide data playback of the athletic performance over the route of the athletic event; and output the actual or animated view to the display, wherein the playback of the athletic performance between a first location and a second location of the route of the athletic event is set at a first playback speed, and wherein the first playback speed is based on, at least in part, athletic sensor data collected between the first location and the second location during the athletic event.
