Limb motion measurement device for swimming training

Abstract

A limb motion measurement device for swimming training includes a sense glove and a sense shoe able to measure and collect the states of moving hands and feet of a swimmer in a training practice, including strength, displacement, velocity, bearing angle, number of times, frequency and time parameters, and to generate a serial of limb motion data of arm stroking and leg kicking motions. These organized and quantified limb motion data can be transmitted outwards to an external computer for the swimmer to study and to produce useful information of more efficient movements and tempos of swimming techniques. Accordingly, the limb motion measurement device for swimming training can be applied to improve swimming techniques in a scientific way.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A limb motion measurement device for swimming training comprising a sense glove and a sense shoe. 
     
     
         2 . The limb motion measurement device for swimming training of  claim 1 , wherein the sense glove comprising:
 a control circuit electrically connecting to and controlling all electronic components of the sense glove;   a pressure sense film electrically connected to the control circuit and covered on the palm side surface of the sense glove where the acting strength of the sense glove with water produced during an arm stroking motion;   an attitude sensor electrically connected to the control circuit and fixed to the sense glove to measure the orientation of the sense glove during an arm stroking motion;   a screen electrically connected to the control circuit and fixed on the lower portion of the back side surface of the sense glove to display the operational information being processed;   a timer embedded in the control circuit to provide all time parameters required to generate a serial of motion data of the sense glove during an arm stroking motion; and   an information transmission circuit embedded in the control circuit to transmit the motion data outwards to an external computer and the swimmer's commands in the opposite direction.   
     
     
         3 . The limb motion measurement device for swimming training of  claim 1 , wherein the sense shoe comprising:
 a control circuit electrically connecting to and controlling all electronic components of the sense shoe;   a pressure sense film electrically connected to the control circuit and covered on the upper and the bottom surfaces of the sense shoe where the acting strength of the sense shoe with water produced during a leg kicking motion;   an attitude sensor electrically connected to the control circuit and fixed to the sense shoe to measure the orientation of the sense shoe during a leg kicking motion;   a screen electrically connected to the control circuit and fixed on the upper surface of the sense shoe to display the operational information being processed;   a timer embedded in the control circuit to provide all time parameters required to generate a serial of motion data of the sense shoe during a leg kicking motion; and   an information transmission circuit embedded in the control circuit to transmit the motion data outwards to an external computer and the swimmer's commands in the opposite direction.   
     
     
         4 . The limb motion measurement device for swimming training of  claim 2 , wherein an elastic and touch fastener being provided at the lower wrist portion of the sense glove. 
     
     
         5 . The limb motion measurement device for swimming training of  claim 2 , wherein the sense glove being provided with a chargeable battery electrically connecting to the control circuit of the sense glove. 
     
     
         6 . The limb motion measurement device for swimming training of  claim 3 , wherein the sense shoe being provided with a chargeable battery electrically connecting to the control circuit of the sense shoe.
