Enhanced Hang-Timer For Console Simulation

US Patent:
7650257, Jan 19, 2010
Filed:
Nov 23, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/286092
Inventors:
Jeffrey Michael Alexander - North Bend WA, US
Erich T. Griebling - Seattle WA, US
Assignee:
Drop Zone Inc. - North Bend WA
International Classification:
G01C 17/00
US Classification:
702150
Abstract:
An enhanced hang-time evaluation mechanism is disclosed, where the mechanism is capable of providing data to a game console for simulation. Such data may correspond to the actions of an object, such as snowboarder, skier, or mountain biker, and then be simulated in a game console. The simulation of such an object may be proportional in accuracy to the types of data gathering devices employed. An accelerometer measuring hang-time via static acceleration may be used. Also, any data gathering device capable of providing spatial positioning data may be used, whether it is a compass providing orientation data, a altimeter providing altitude data, or a global positioning device providing positioning data. Such data may also be stored in a memory module, where the data may be characterized, evaluated, and then provided to the game console, regardless of whether the memory module is internal or external to the hang-time mechanism.

Hang-Timer For Providing Recording Instructions

US Patent:
2007015, Jul 5, 2007
Filed:
Jan 3, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/325212
Inventors:
Jeffrey Alexander - North Bend WA, US
Erich Griebling - Seattle WA, US
International Classification:
G06F 17/30
US Classification:
702127000
Abstract:
A hang-timer device is disclosed that is capable of issuing recording instructions to a recording device, such as a digital camera. The hang-timer can measure a static acceleration profile of a wearer of the hang-timer, and based on this static acceleration profile it can issue recording instructions to a recording device. For example, if the static acceleration profile changes from about 1 g to about 0 g, the hang-timer can issue instructions for the recording device to record; additionally, if the profile changes from about 0 g to about 1 g, it can issue instructions to stop recording. Moreover, the hang-timer can issue instructions for the recording device to record some period of time before a hang-time event and some period of time after a hang-time event. Various other such variations on the general notion described above are also disclosed.
