Athletic Performance Rating System

View page
US Patent:
20100129780, May 27, 2010
Filed:
Sep 14, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/559082
Inventors:
Kristopher L. Homsi - Portland OR, US
David H. Annis - Charlotte NC, US
Assignee:
NIKE, INC. - Beaverton OR
International Classification:
G09B 19/00
US Classification:
434258
Abstract:
In one embodiment, the present invention is directed to an athleticism rating method for normalizing and more accurately comparing overall athletic performance of at least two athletes. Each athlete completes at least two different athletic performance tests. Each test is designed to measure a different athletic skill that is needed to compete effectively in a defined sport. The results from each test for a given athlete are normalized by comparing the test results to a database providing the distribution of test results among a similar class of athletes and then assigning each test result a point number based on that test result's percentile among the distribution of test results. Combining the point numbers derived from the at least two different athletic performance tests for an athlete produces an athleticism rating score representing the overall athleticism of each athlete.

US Patent:
20120115682, May 10, 2012
Filed:
Nov 10, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/943742
Inventors:
Kristopher L. Homsi - Portland OR, US
Assignee:
NIKE, INC. - Beaverton OR
International Classification:
A63B 71/00
US Classification:
482 8
Abstract:
Systems and techniques relating to evaluating performance characteristics are provided. One or more fitness devices, for example, a ball and/or a mat, may have sensors for measuring a user's actions during an activity protocol, such as a testing drill. Sensor configured to detect if the fitness device meets operational criteria are disclosed. In one embodiment, the fitness device may comprise a ball and the operational criteria may relate to the weight, dimensions, and/or internal pressure of the ball. In one embodiment, data from fitness device(s) may be used to calculate a score. In other embodiments, a score may be calculated; however, it may not be associated with credentials or certified if an operational criteria is not met.

US Patent:
20120302301, Nov 29, 2012
Filed:
May 24, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/114467
Inventors:
Kristopher L. Homsi - Beaverton OR, US
Assignee:
NIKE, INC. - Beaverton OR
International Classification:
A63F 9/24
US Classification:
463 2
Abstract:
Aspects of this disclosure relate to systems and methods for conducting sport-specific activities. Illustrated systems may be adjustable to permit a performance of different sport-specific activities. Further aspects relate to using sensor data to evaluate a user's performance and determine sport-specific fitness parameters. Various fitness parameters may measure reactive agility and/or the physiological state of the user, such as when in an exhausted state. Illustrated systems may have structures with an output device and a sensor. The structure may include a vertically-arranged planar surface to form a wall. Several structures may be configured to form a boundary. The boundary may be automatically adjustable, for example, depending on one or more specific fitness routines to be implemented. Calculated fitness parameters may be visually mapped on the structures of the system.

Golf Athleticism Rating System

US Patent:
20130079907, Mar 28, 2013
Filed:
Nov 20, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/682217
Inventors:
KRISTOPHER L HOMSI - PORTLAND OR, US
DAVID H ANNIS - CHARLOTTE NC, US
International Classification:
A63B 24/00
US Classification:
700 91
Abstract:
Aspects of this disclosure relate to systems and methods for rating the performance of an athlete, particularly a golf athlete. The systems and method may include instructing the user to perform multiple golf-relevant athleticism drills or tests such as a stepping exercise, a broad jump, a wood-chop bounce, a countermovement lateral hop and/or a side-sling object launch. One or more drills or tests may be performed in a hip-neutral manner so as to simulate a golfer's stance. The performance data collected from each of these tests may be input into a processing system to generate an athleticism rank and score for each test as well as an overall, multi-factorial rating of golf athleticism.
