Patent ID: 7365647

Claim:
An apparatus for training a subject to perform a specified physical activity, the apparatus comprising: a) two or more body sensors for monitoring a subject's movements arising from different, non-symmetrical muscular origins, said sensors each respectively producing sensor output signals indicative of the kinesthetic performance of the subject; b) signal processing means connected to receive sensor output signals from the body sensors, said signal processing means comprising means to generate a single composite signal with a value as an additive function of the individual sensor output signals, i) wherein the signal processing means assigns weighting factors to each of said individual sensor output signals to produce individual weighted sensor output signals, and ii) generates the single composite signal with a value as a function of the individual weighted sensor output signals, and c) display means connected to said signal processing means to receive said composite signal to provide feedback to the subject in the form of a display that is generated in response to the single composite signal, whereby a subject may receive feedback as to their physical activity.
