Predictive flight path and non-destructive marking system and method

摘要

Systems and methods for acquiring and targeting an object placed in motion, tracking the object's movement, and while tracking, measuring the object's characteristics and marking the object with an external indicator until the object comes to rest is provided. The systems and methods include an acquisition and tracking system, a data capture system, and a marking control system. Through the components of the system, an object moving through two or three dimensional space can be externally marked to assist with improving the performance of striking the object.

主权项

1. A system for tracking the motion of an object and marking the object while moving comprising:
a first system, the first system having a processor, configured to track a trajectory of an object in motion; a second system, the second system having a processor, configured to receive data from the first system and calculate an orientation of the object and a position of the object within a space as the object moves through the trajectory; a third system, the third system having a processor, configured to mark the surface of the object in motion according to the position of the object within the space as calculated by the second system, the mark comprising a visual indicator.
