Abstract

The measuring method involves using a marked track having two visual references situated apart form each other and whose separating distance can be varied. A camera with incorporated high precision chronometer, is connected to a computer and a printer which outputs results on a paper strip. The camera takes pictures of the athlete or animal moving between the two reference points.

Description

La présente invention a pour objet une technique pour mesurer la vitesse, la longueur de la foulée et la cadence des foulées d'un athlète humain ou animal. The present invention relates to a technique for measuring the speed, the stride length and the cadence of strides of a human or animal athlete.

En effet, 4 années d'expérimentation de cette technique ont démontré que la connaissance de ces 3 paramètres et leurs variations permet d'évaluer les capacités, les aptitudes aux distances aux terrains, l'état de forme, la résistance à l'effort de tout athlète humain ou animal.Indeed, 4 years of experimentation with this technique have demonstrated that knowing these 3 parameters and their variations makes it possible to assess the capacities, the aptitudes for distances to the terrain, the state of form, the resistance to the effort of any human or animal athlete.

La technique selon l'invention comporte un dispositif constitué des éléments suivants
1) une piste sur laquelle sont fixés deux repères visuels situés a une distance qui peut être variable.The technique according to the invention comprises a device made up of the following elements
1) a track on which are fixed two visual cues located at a distance which can be variable.

2) une caméra à laquelle est intégré un chronomètre de grande précision ou un "time code". 2) a camera with a high-precision stopwatch or a "time code" built into it.

3) un ordinateur spécialement programmé pour recevoir des données mathématiques et les traiter de façon à calculer les valeurs des 3 paramètres en question. 3) a computer specially programmed to receive mathematical data and process it so as to calculate the values of the 3 parameters in question.

4) une imprimante qui délivre les résultats sur une bande de papier. 4) a printer which delivers the results on a strip of paper.

La technique selon l'invention comporte également une suite d'opérations appartenant à
1) la technique d'enregistrement d'images.The technique according to the invention also comprises a series of operations belonging to
1) the image recording technique.

2) le langage et la technique informatique. 2) computer language and technique.

3) la science des mathématiques. 3) the science of mathematics.

Ces différentes opérations sont
1) enregistrement vidéo du sujet courant du premier au deuxième repère.These different operations are
1) video recording of the current subject from the first to the second marker.

2) visionnage des images sur un téléviseur ou autre appareil en utilisant le ralenti ou l'arrêt sur image. 2) viewing images on a TV or other device using slow motion or freeze frame.

3) introduction dans l'ordinateur des données suivantes 8
a) les horaires précis de passage devant les 2 repères.3) entering the following data into the computer 8
a) the precise timetables for passing in front of the 2 markers.

b) la distance séparant les 2 repères. b) the distance separating the 2 marks.

c) les horaires de début et de fin d'un nombre déter
miné de foulées.c) the start and end times of a specific number
undermined by strides.

d) le nombre déterminé de foulées en c)
4) traitement des données par ordinateur suivant le programme informatique conformément à la planche 1/2.d) the determined number of strides in c)
4) data processing by computer according to the computer program in accordance with plate 1/2.

Ce programme informatique conçu spécialement permet d'obtenir les longueurs de foulées précises à un milimètre près, ainsi que la valeur de la cadence des foulées, la vitesse de l'athlète conformément à la planche 2/2. This specially designed computer program provides precise stride lengths to the nearest millimeter, as well as the value of stride cadence, athlete speed according to Plate 2/2.

5) sortie sur imprimante d'une bande conformément à la planche 2/2.  5) printout of a tape in accordance with sheet 2/2.
