Abstract:
1. A swing analysis system comprising: a sensor section including a motion sensor adapted to detect a swing of sports equipment; a swing characteristic information calculation section adapted to calculate swing characteristic information of the swing based on output data of the motion sensor, the output data corresponding to the swing; a swing selection section adapted to select and store the swing characteristic information of the swing calculated by the swing characteristic information calculation section as a reference swing when a predetermined condition is met; a reference swing characteristic information calculation section adapted to calculate a primary reference swing having reference swing characteristic information wherein the reference swing characteristic information is calculated using a plurality of the swing characteristic information from a plurality of the reference swings selected by the swing selection section, and the reference swing characteristic information calculation section stores the reference swing characteristic information of the primary reference swing in a storage section; a comparison section adapted to compare the swing characteristic information calculated by the swing characteristic information calculation section with the reference swing characteristic information of the primary reference swing calculated by the reference swing characteristic information calculation section and to generate comparison information; and an output section adapted to output the comparison information.
