Patent ID: 8830162

Claim:
A system that is operated by a user to produce outputs, the system including: a garment that is worn by the user having at least two sensors attached to the garment for sensing the biomechanical position of two different joints of the user's body, each sensor being operated over two or more operating positions that each represent a different biomechanical position of the user, wherein the sensors are removably attached to the garment, thereby allowing the garment to be refreshed by washing or placed entirely as desired; an electronic device that receives output signals from the sensors and has a display that displays i) graphically representations of the operating positions, ii) assignable outputs of the system, and the electronic device also producing the outputs of the system; a transmitter that receives output signals from the sensors and wirelessly transmits the output signals to the electronic device; an input device that can be operated to calibrate the system by assigning each graphical representation of each operating position to at least one of the outputs of the system, and assigning ranges of the output signals of each sensor to each of the graphical representations of the operating positions, and wherein the input device comprises a plurality of selectable buttons corresponding to the graphical representations of each operating position of the sensors, and operating the buttons allows the user to assign ranges of the output signals of each sensor to the graphical representations of the operating positions of the sensors, and allows the outputs of the system to be assigned to the graphical representations of the operating positions of at least one of the sensors from a range of possible outputs of the system displayed on the display; a feedback means that communicates to the user the operating positions of the sensors by indicating on a display the graphical representation of the operating position for the output signal being received by the electronic at any one time, and the feedback means also communicates to the user information identifying which particular output of the system that has been assigned to each graphical representation of the operating positions; and wherein a set of outputs can be reproduced by the user by repeating biomechanical movements of the joints for which the garment has sensors.
