REAL-TIME SPEED ESTIMATION METHOD OF MOVING OBJECT
20230324431 · 2023-10-12 ·

A method of estimating a speed of an object in real-time includes acquiring from an acceleration sensor mounted on the object a first original acceleration signal indicative of an acceleration of the object in a direction parallel to a travelling direction of the object, filtering the first original acceleration signal to remove noise to produce a first filtered acceleration signal, down-sampling the first filtered acceleration signal to obtain a first optimized acceleration signal, and calculating an estimated speed value of the object along the direction parallel to the travelling direction of the object based on the first optimized acceleration signal.

Equipment fitting system that compares swing metrics
11565163 · 2023-01-31 · ·

An equipment fitting system that measures swings by a user of different pieces of equipment with inertial sensors, and analyzes sensor data to recommend which piece of equipment is optimal for the user from among those tested. Illustrative applications include fitting of baseball bats and golf clubs. Swing metrics calculated from sensor data may include an acceleration metric, a speed metric, and a momentum metric; these metrics may be combined into a metrics score for each piece of equipment. Other factors may be included in an overall score, such as the user's subjective score for each piece of equipment, and ratings from experts or other consumers. Users may assign the relative importance for the different factors to calculate an overall equipment score.
