ABSTRACT Sports related self-contained impact detection and display
device that allows the bat, racquet, club, or ball to determine the
intensity of the impact and provide an estimate on the speed, force,
direction or distance that would result from the impact. The device is
self-contained and allows the device to be mounted within or on the bat,
racquet, club or ball. In addition to estimation of speed, force, direction
or distance the device can collect multiple impacts and provide
minimum, maximum, average, sum and totals of the impacts. The user
interface can also provide a graphical representation of the resulting
trajectory or flight of the object being impacted.
