  • Patent number: 7944472
    Abstract: A system and method for standardized speed-evaluation of athletes that uses a photoelectric sensor configuration to create a laser grid by which an athlete's position over time will be monitored during, and analyzed after a test session. The photoelectric laser sensors are configured to establish the athlete's starting and stopping time along with the integrated synchronized video motion sensing. The athlete's motion is processed and transmitted by both a high-speed motion camera and a secondary test camera installed at specified distances. The secondary camera streams video data to the remote viewers in a wide-angle perspective. The athlete's movement is captured on video and transmitted to remote viewers via internet-streaming.
