| 摘要 |
This invention is a Global Positioning System (GPS) based personal athletic performance monitor for providing an athlete with real time athletic performance feedback data such as elapsed exercise time, distance covered, average pace, elevation difference, distance to go, and/or advice for reaching preset targets. The monitor is integrated with an AM/FM/TV personal radio (607), and the athletic performance feedback is provided through a set of audio headphones (202) using an audio module (606). The monitor can be connected to an external personal computer (701) via a serial (118) or infrared port (124) for further data storage, for long term trend analysis, or to a remote computer via modem (613), where historical performance data is collected, and logically compiled from participating athletes worldwide. Results are then transferred to an Internet web site which displays comparison data representing the relative performances of two or more athletes, provides customized individual training advice, virtual competitions, and an opportunity for advertisers to reach highly well defined potential customers.
