Title: Baton de ski avec capteurs integres pour la mesure de force et de puissance
Inventor: FISCHER HANS CHRISTIAN
IPC: G01L1/04
Filed: 2017-02-17
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un bâton de ski ayant un ensemble de capteurs intégrés qui supportent le calcul de la force dépensée par un skieur. Les capteurs comprennent un processeur d'ordinateur incorporé dans la poignée de bâton de ski et un capteur de force, connecté au processeur, pour détecter la force axiale qui est montée sur le ski. Pour calculer la force appliquée tangentiellement par le skieur dans la direction parallèle à la surface sur laquelle le skieur se déplace, l'angle auquel la section de pôle est au cours de la force appliquée doit être détecté et ceci peut être obtenu avec divers capteurs, un exemple non limitatif étant des capteurs IMU intégrés dans le processeur d'ordinateur dans la poignée. Afin de calculer la puissance délivrée par le skieur, il y a un capteur pour déterminer la vitesse (par exemple, un GPS d'un dispositif mobile connecté sans fil aux capteurs de bâton de ski et au matériel), et des capteurs appropriés pour déterminer la pente du terrain. Dans un mode de réalisation donné à titre d'exemple, la pente du terrain est déterminée en supposant un angle constant du bâton de ski par rapport au sol, et en utilisant le changement d'orientation du bâton de ski pour déterminer et cartographier le changement correspondant du terrain. La vitesse, la pente du terrain, l'orientation du bâton de ski par rapport à la gravité, et la force polaire axiale connues peuvent être utilisées pour calculer une puissance dépendante du temps.
