- Sport Specific Tool
- The sport specific tool has a plurality of embedded attachable and detachable contact sensors and internal electronic circuitry including wireless protocols for on and off the Cloud such a radio frequency transmitter, ZigBee, RFID, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Wi-Max, UMB, Sigfox, Thread, 2G (GSM), 3G and 4G, 5G, BLE, LTE Cato, LTE-M1, NB-IOT, Zwave, LoReWan, Ingenu, Weighless-N, Weightless-P, Weightless-W, ANT & ANT+, DigiMesh, Wi-Fi-ah (WiFi HaLow), MiWi, EnOcean, Dash7, WirelessHART, 6LoWPan, White Space, and GPS Sensing Circuitry.
- In this preferred alternative embodiment, at least one of the sensors is located at or proximate to an optimal location on a sports implement or a tool face for contact with any other sport specific tool or implement, and this location is designated. the “sweet spot”. The remaining two sensors are adjacent and on either side of the sweet spot. The contact sensors may be, but are not limited to, sensors employing piezo-active type transducers, specifically, either piezoelectric or piezoresistive transducers (similar, but not limited to the Cooper Instruments LPM 562).
- In an alternative embodiment, three sensors are applied to the face of an adapted sport specific tool by a Mylar tape or other means. Again, the electronic circuitry is internal to the sport specific tool and connects to the sensors by leads and GPS sensing circuitry and or gyroscope.
- In another alternative embodiment, to retrofit a or sports implement or gaming tool, contact sensors are part of an adapter attached to an ordinary sport specific tool and wire connected to electronic circuitry and GPS sensing circuitry attached to the club shaft or elsewhere on the sport specific tool.
- In another embodiment, a ball contacting any sensor produces a detectable variance indicating the magnitude and duration of sensor-ball impact. The variance may be a change in resistance of a piezoresistive transducer or a voltage change in the case of a piezoelectric transducer. The variance is detected and amplified by an associated amplifier and then is input to an associated integration circuit, the output of which represents the energy and impulse of the ball-club contact event. Connected to the integration circuit, a microcontroller, which is a multi-input channel signal processing circuit (similar, but not limited to, an NXP MC9S08), having analog to digital signal converting circuits (ADCs), one for each input channel, and a sequential digital signal encoding circuit connected so as to convert the ADC outputs into a time multiplexed serial digital data stream containing a binary-coded word for each channel indicating the energy and duration of the associated sensor-ball impact event. In the case of a virtual game and therefore a virtual impact, the game implement simulates the impact based on the velocity, acceleration, and spatial orientation of the game implement itself at the point of a virtual impact. A game projectile or object can therefore be real or virtual. Moreover, a processor or equivalently a computer processor is hereon and heretofore understood to be, and or comprise, a computer, a microcontroller, and or a microprocessor, and each of the latter is understood to be included in the former.
- A wireless radio frequency transmitting circuit receives the serial digital data from the microcontroller and wirelessly transmits the information via an internal antenna to the receiver for subsequent processing by the local computer.
- Ball Receptacle
- In another embodiment, a ball receptacle has a top shaped to allow entry of a ball. The receptacle has a contact sensor pad containing at least one contact sensor, a ball return mechanism, and internal electronic circuitry. The internal circuitry includes a wireless frequency transmitter. The preferred manifestation this embodiment has a sensor pad positioned within the receptacle such that the center activation area aligns with the center of a ball entry. Additional sensor activation areas are adjacent, one on either side of the center area. In the preferred embodiment, like the sensor used at the face of the club, the sensors may be, but are not limited to, sensors employing piezo-active type transducers, specifically, either piezoelectric or piezoresistive transducers.
- A ball entering the receptacle and contacting the sensor pad produces a detectable variance indicating the ball entry event. The variance may be a change in resistance in the case of a piezoresistive transducer (similar, but not limited to Cooper Instruments LPM 562) or a voltage change in the case of a piezoelectric transducer. The variance is detected and amplified by an associated amplifier. This amplified signal then is input to a microcontroller having an analog to digital signal converting circuit (ADC) and a digital signal encoding circuit connected so as to convert the ADC output representing the sensor's signals into a serial digital data stream containing a binary-coded word indicating the sensor-ball contact event. The microcontroller may be the same or similar to the microcontroller of the sport specific tool's electronics. A radio frequency transmitter or multifunction wireless frequency transmitter circuit receives the serial digital data from the microcontroller and wirelessly transmits the information via an internal antenna to the receiver for subsequent processing by the computer.
- The ball return mechanism can be as simple as a back plate located to be engaged by a golf ball entering the receptacle and supported and biased by a spring or springs to eject the ball. Other known ejection devices, similar to those used in pinball machines, and either mechanically or even electrically activated, can be used to improve the effect if desired.
- The receptacle configuration is susceptible to much variation. The receptacle illustrated and described above is well suited to indoor use, on carpet for example. It is clear, however, that an actual cup installed in an actual green, with real or synthetic grass, can be similarly equipped.
- Motion Sensor Plate.
- The motion sensor plate having a top motion plate and a bottom motion plate is used, wherein the top motion plate contains a plurality of capacitor-forming electrically isolated platelets (twelve platelets are illustrated in this exemplary preferred embodiment). They are evenly distributed at or just below the top plate's exterior upper surface. The bottom plate has a homogenous electrically conductive interior surface underlying the platelets. Each capacitive platelet contained in the top motion plate forms a capacitive component when the top and bottom motion plates are vertically closely spaced to form the golf club motion sensor plate or sports implement motion sensor plate. A suitable dielectric may be sandwiched between the two plates. The structure is adhesively or otherwise mechanically joined and it may be covered or coated as desired. The result is a golf club motion sensor plate or sports implement motion sensor plate or gaming tool motion sensing plate containing a capacitor matrix. The capacitive components are connected to form a capacitive network.
- Applying an energizing high frequency alternating electrical signal having a frequency in the range from 100 MHz to 200 MHz from an oscillator to the golf club motion plate capacitive network produces an electromagnetic field above the surface of each platelet of the capacitive components of the motion sensor plate. Any object, including a golf club, or sports implement, gaming tool or sports apparatus passing near the surface of the energized motion plate will cause a perturbation of the electromagnetic field as illustrated by the sample possible pathways across the plate. A network of electrical comparator amplifiers are connected to the capacitor network. The comparator amplifiers of the network are connected one-to-one with the capacitive elements of the capacitive network. The comparators of the network detect voltage variations occasioned by electromagnetic field disturbance due to a golf club, sports apparatus, sports implement or gaming tool moving over certain of the capacitive elements of the motion plate. Each different golf club motion or sports implement motion over the energized motion plate will produce a uniquely identifiable signal from the comparator amplifier network. There are a variety of known proximity sensors that could be gathered together in an array like that of the platelets to serve as the transducer portion of the golf club motion detector or sports implement motion detector.
- The electrical signal from the comparative amplifier network is applied to an analog to digital signal converter (ADC) and the ADC digitized output signal is converted into a serial digital data stream by a multiplexer. These data identifies each platelet having had its field disturbed. The serial digital data can be input directly by wire from a multiplexer to the computer located at the site of the golf player and golf club motion sensor plate or as in the preferred embodiment, the serial data can be transmitted to a remotely located receiver connected to the computer via a transmitter and an antenna included in the golf club motion sensing plate or sports implement motion sensing plate electronic transmitter communication circuitry.
- The computer, under the control of the golf system software, will analyze the serial digital club motion signal, or digital sports implement motion signal, or digital sports gaming tool signal, and recognize from the transmitted signals the platelets over which the club head or sports implement head passed, and display the sport specific motion.
- Wireless Signal Receiver and Computer.
- At each player site, a wireless radio frequency signal receiver is connected to the computer by either the serial (USB) or parallel computer ports. The wireless signal receiver detects digitally coded radio frequency transmissions from the communication circuit associated with any of the sports equipment, ball receptacle, or motion sensing plate. The received transmissions are demodulated by the RF receiver circuitry connected to a microcontroller, which converts the demodulated data signal to serial binary-coded data suitable for communications to a computer. The computer, under the control of the internally installed game system software or sports system software program, monitors and directs the flow of communications between remotely located players via the internet and displays the game simulations and performance information. In appropriate installations the wireless electromagnetic signals that communicate with the receiver may be infrared communications.
- At each remote player site, the computer under the control of the software system program monitors and controls initialization and the sequential play of the game, or alternatively, the individual player practice session. Upon start up by a player at a particular site, the system input parameters are set, and the system Internet and player data port interfaces are initialized as indicated. For Internet communications, the serial port of the computer is enabled in the preferred embodiment. A local player event listener (serial port listener) is initialized, and a remote player event listener (socket even listener) is initialized. It will communicate events from one or more of the sports implements, such as the smart golf club, the golf ball receptacle, and the motion sensor plate. The main operational software (program) thread is run and the system awaits data input from the appropriate computer communications port.
- If the competitive play mode has been selected, the program generates a player participation request and sends the request to the game internet server (GGC server). Upon identification of a player opponent by the GGC server, the program initiates the player identification sequence and sequential play begins. This software sequence and control routine occurs at each remote site where play has been initiated. During the game play sequences, the program generates the appropriate animation, display, and audio data and commands, and communicates with the associated display and speaker devices. Upon the occurrence of a local player event, the main operating program displays the event and communicates the event by causing a device transmission to be sent via the internet GGC server which displays the event for the opposing players and alerts an opposing player or players that it is his/her turn to play. The local player event may be, but is not limited to, the smart sports equipment impacting a ball, physiological data readings, athletic human motion capture and analysis, sound feedback data, location data cross, body and posture alignment, for example the swing of a golf club or tennis racquet across a sensing plate or the ball's entry into the receptacle. The system sensor is capable of capturing at least one type of data selected from the group comprising data which are characteristic of the equipment, physiological data of the user of the sports equipment, data describing the environment, and data describing the position of the sports equipment. The program contains time delay limits for player action, and delays of play beyond these limits generate play quit and disconnect signal if desired.
- A completed event at the local player's site by one or more local players also has the effect of indicating that it is no longer the local player's turn and enables the socket event listener to detect an event from the remote player, again via the Internet.
- If the single player practice mode is selected, the internet communications sequences are disabled, other software sequential operating routines continue as above described and the player's movement data, physiological data, ball-receptacle contact data, human motion analysis data and or sports apparatus. gaming tool, sports implement motion sensor, GPS sensor circuit data, accelerometer and gyroscope data information are communicated only to the computer located at the player's site and the performance information analyzed and displayed only at the local player's site.
- When a game is won, lost, or terminated, the software system generates the appropriate output signals, displays the player performance information, and resets to initial pre-game conditions. If one player opponent quits the game or is “timed out” (due to an excessive delay in play) and the remaining player wishes to continue play, the software resumes an Internet search for another opponent.
- The motion sensing device contains a multifunctional wireless processor that has built-in multiple protocols such as Radio Frequency, Bluetooth, ZigBee, Wi-Fi, Wi-Max, UWB, which detects and distinguishes various wireless protocols. For example, ZigBee, RFID, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Wi-Max, UMB, Sigfox, Thread, 2G (GSM), 3G and 4G, 5G, BLE, LTE Cato, LTE-M1, Zwave, LoReWan, Ingenu, Weighless-N, Weightless-P, Weightless-W, ANT & ANT+, DigiMesh, Wi-Fi-ah, MiWi, EnOcean, Dash7, WirelessHART, 6LoWPan, White Space, and GPS Sensing Circuitry from each other.

- A multifunction physiological processor and the multifunction sound processor work in a similar fashion. The multifunction physiological processor wirelessly secures, processes, and analyzes heart rate, respiration rate, brain waves and many other physiological functions, simultaneously on and off the Internet or Cloud using a variety of well-known and established technologies. Among these technologies is the electroencephalogram for measuring brain waves to tell the differences between the alpha and beta states, whereby sensors are attached to the head area. Heart rates are measured by electrocardiogram and oftentimes pulse readings are measured to determine heart rate by attaching an electrode to a fingertip or ear lobe. Respiration rates are sometimes measured by a piezoelectric respiration sensor, which is worn around the chest area. All three physiological measurements for heart rate, brain waves including an implantable sensor and respiration rates are sent to the multifunction physiological processor wirelessly for analysis and processing. Physiological measurements are now expanded to biosensor, ultrasound sensor, accelerometer sensors, Lidar sensor, sonar sensor, video camera sensor including video streaming, piezo sensor including electric and resistive, eye sensor, infrared sensor, capacitive hand sensor, tilt sensor, system on a chip sensor, foot pressure sensor, nano or mini computerized tomography sensor, magnetometer sensor, graphene sensor, resistive sensor, fingerprint sensor, pedometer sensor, blood glucose sensor, pulse oximeter sensor, nano and or mini MRI sensor, GSR or skin moisture sensor, real-time location sensor, gyroscope sensor, compass sensor, hand sensor, white space sensor, etc. The embedded single and multiplayer software allows the human motion processors, multifunction sound processors, multifunction physiological processor, body alignment processor, posture alignment processor to exchange messages and sensor motion and GPS sensor circuit data with other original and cloned sports apparatus data and other internet sports computer devices off and on the Internet, using client-server and peer to peer networks.

The LED device emits light upon activation of the same by a typical power supply, which may be a battery or other power source device. The power supply is also secured to the body of the user by conventional techniques. One can analyze the motion of an arm, back, and other body parts and develop the three dimensional (3D) or X, Y, and Z coordinate information for various body parts. For example, to measure the angle between the hip joint, one would need to know the coordinates at the knee joint with relation to the hip.
- Stored coordinate information from the human motion processor determines angular relationships between said athlete body joints as monitored in real-time inside of the Internet sports computer device using computer algorithms to generate real-time stick figure generation or animation display for the Internet sports computer device to display real-time athletic motion from said Internet sports computer device to the client and to display real-time athletic motion from said Internet sports computer device to the server and store said real-time athletic motion data from Internet sports computer device on the server.
