  • Patent number: 10215542
    Abstract: Systems for analyzing performance of an activity involving using an implement to strike a moving target object effectively have a first sensor attached to the implement, a second sensor attached to a launcher human or mechanically operable to launch the moving target, wherein the first sensor generates a signal associated with motion of the implement, wherein a second sensor generates a signal associated with motion of at least one of the group consisting of the launcher and the moving target being launched, a processor operably coupled to the first and second sensors to receive the signals generated by the first and second sensors, and wherein the processor analyzes the received signals to measure performance of the activity. The implement may be a firearm. The implement may be a shotgun. The launcher may be a clay pigeon trap.
