System for the detection and signalling of hits in the sport of fencing

摘要

A system for the detection and signalling of his in fencing is characterized in that its main components are portable hit detection units (1) each carried by a fencer and electrically connected to the corresponding weapon (2), at least one central (3) hit discrimination and signalling unit electrically connected to the conductive strip (4) and shoes with conductive soles (5) carried by each fencer and allowing an electrical connection between the conductive strip (4) and the hit detection units (1) and eventually the conductive valid hit surfaces worn by each fencer (6) (foil and saber).
