SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTING MOMENT OF IMPACT AND/OR STRENGTH OF A SWING BASED ON ACCELEROMETER DATA

摘要

An example system and method is provided for detecting a moment of impact and/or strength of a swing based on moving a hand-held device including an accelerometer arrangement. A moment and a magnitude of simulated striking of the object are determined based on one or more accelerometer arrangement outputs resulting from the moving of the hand-held device. Using one or more of aural, visual and tactile outputs, the striking of the object is simulated in accordance with the determined moment of simulated striking and the determined magnitude of the simulated striking.

1. A system for detecting aspects of motion related to moving a hand-held device, the system comprising:
a processing system having at least one processor, the processing system configured to:
determine when a first output for a first axis of an accelerometer arrangement resulting from moving the hand-held device exceeds a specified value,determine a magnitude related to moving the handheld device based at least in part on a second output for a second axis of the accelerometer arrangement corresponding to centripetal force resulting from moving of the hand-held device, andprovide responsive output related to the aspects of motion based at least in part on the first output for the first axis of the accelerometer arrangement and the second output of the second axis of the accelerometer arrangement corresponding to the centripetal force resulting from moving the hand-held device.
