Patent number: 10607349Abstract: A system that analyzes data from multiple sensors, potentially of different types, that track motions of players, equipment, and projectiles such as balls. Data from different sensors is combined to generate integrated metrics for events and activities. Illustrative sensors may include inertial sensors, cameras, radars, and light gates. As an illustrative example, a video camera may track motion of a pitched baseball, and an inertial sensor may track motion of a bat; the system may use the combined data to analyze the effectiveness of the swing in hitting the pitch. The system may also use sensor data to automatically select or generate tags for an event; tags may represent for example activity types, players, performance levels, or scoring results. The system may analyze social media postings to confirm or augment event tags. Users may filter and analyze saved events based on the assigned tags.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2018Date of Patent: March 31, 2020Assignee: Blast Motion Inc.Inventors: Bhaskar Bose, Piyush Gupta, Juergen Haas, Brian Estrem, Michael Bentley, Ryan Kaps

Patent number: 9911045Abstract: A system that analyzes data from sensors and video cameras to generated synchronized event videos and to automatically select or generate tags for an event. Enables creating, transferring, obtaining, and storing concise event videos generally without non-event video. Events stored in the database identifies trends, correlations, models, and patterns in event data. Tags may represent for example activity types, players, performance levels, or scoring results. The system may analyze social media postings to confirm or augment event tags. Users may filter and analyze saved events based on the assigned tags. The system may create highlight and fail reels filtered by metrics and by tags.Type: GrantFiled: April 10, 2017Date of Patent: March 6, 2018Assignee: Blast Motion Inc.Inventors: Bhaskar Bose, Piyush Gupta, Juergen Haas, Brian Estrem, Michael Bentley, Ryan Kaps

Patent number: 9401178Abstract: Enables event analysis from sensors including environmental, physiological and motion capture sensors. Also enables displaying information based on events recognized using sensor data associated with a user, piece of equipment or based on previous motion analysis data from the user or other user(s) or other sensors. Enables intelligent analysis, synchronization, and transfer of generally concise event videos synchronized with motion data from motion capture sensor(s) coupled with a user or piece of equipment. Enables creating, transferring, obtaining, and storing concise event videos generally without non-event video. Events stored in the database identifies trends, correlations, models, and patterns in event data. Greatly saves storage and increases upload speed by uploading event videos and avoiding upload of non-pertinent portions of large videos. Creates highlight and fail reels filtered by metrics and can sort by metric.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2015Date of Patent: July 26, 2016Assignee: BLAST MOTION INC.Inventors: Michael Bentley, Ryan Kaps, Bhaskar Bose, Piyush Gupta, Juergen Haas, Brian Estrem

Patent number: 9396385Abstract: A method that integrates sensor data and video analysis to analyze object motion. Motion capture elements generate motion sensor data for objects of interest, and cameras generate video of these objects. Sensor data and video data are synchronized in time and aligned in space on a common coordinate system. Sensor fusion is used to generate motion metrics from the combined and integrated sensor data and video data. Integration of sensor data and video data supports robust detection of events, generation of video highlight reels or epic fail reels augmented with metrics that show interesting activity, and calculation of metrics that exceed the individual capabilities of either sensors or video analysis alone.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2015Date of Patent: July 19, 2016Assignee: BLAST MOTION INC.Inventors: Michael Bentley, Bhaskar Bose, Ryan Kaps, Piyush Gupta, Juergen Haas, Brian Estrem
