Definitions

  • Wearable device comprising one or more impact sensors
  • the present invention relates to a wearable device comprising one or more impact sensors and at least one unit transmitting the detected signals to a remote station .

  • the transducer is composed of a piezoelectric film coupled to a deformable material, or it is inserted between two layers of deformable material, and the output signal is generated on the basis of the impacts on the deformable material .
  • the transducer may be connected to a remote receiver and transmitter for providing an indication of the impact to a remote station. Therefore the known devices are part of the protective equipment of the athlete, for example they are composed of boxing gloves .
  • boxing glove by its nature is subjected to many and repetitive stresses even of considerable level and therefore it is subjected to wear above all in the external part which can be subjected to tearing or other similar damages.
  • the known devices have a single impact sensor and therefore they do not allow the type of impact to be finely detected, providing more detailed information above all as regards the geometry of the impact .
  • the document US 2006/047447 Al describes a gauze bandage provided with monitoring components, that wraps the hand of the athlete. This arrangement does not allow for a correct positioning of the sensors, because the gauze bandage needs to be wrapped around the hand of the athlete and a different tensioning of the bandage during the wrapping can lead to completely different positions of the sensors. The athlete must take an excessive cure on positioning the bandage, because an incorrect positioning of the sensor can lead to results that are distorted, even to a great extent.
  • the present invention overcomes the drawbacks of the known devices by providing a device such as described hereinbefore, which is composed of an inner glove wearable under a martial art glove.
  • the inner glove or glove liner can be used with different types of gloves or boxing gloves.

  • Biometric sensors can be of any type, for example heart beat sensors , body temperature sensors , blood pressure sensors, oxygen saturation sensors, perspiration sensors.
  • biometric sensors cannot be mounted directly on the glove, since the inner glove or the wraps prevent them from directly contacting the athlete skin .
  • biometric sensors are advantageously arranged on the inner glove, which is in direct contact with the athlete skin, guaranteeing an accurate detection of the biometric values desired to be monitored.
  • one or more of the fingers of the inner glove are truncated, such that the inner glove, in the worn condition, covers only the first phalange of one or more of the corresponding fingers of the user.
  • said impact sensors are of the piezoelectric type.
  • impact sensors can be of the capacitive type or of another type, for example strain gauges.
  • a plurality of said impact sensors which impact sensors are arranged in such a manner to form an array.

  • only two impact sensors are provided for each finger.
  • At least one sensor is placed on the glove portion corresponding to the back of the hand .
  • the unit transmitting the detected signals is set such to transmit the signals to the remote station in real- time .
  • the present invention further relates to a wearable device comprising one or more impact sensors and at least one unit transmitting the detected signals to a remote station, which device comprises a plurality of said impact sensors, which impact sensors are arranged such to form an array.

  • the device is composed of a glove or an inner glove and it comprises one or more of the characteristics listed above. Even if the characteristics listed above are described with reference to an inner glove, they can be considered valid for a glove or a boxing glove.
  • the signals generated by the accelerometer can be used to obtain an estimation of velocity in the three directions. Theoretically it is possible to obtain the velocity from the acceleration, by performing the following integration:
  • the measures of the acceleration generated by the accelerometer have some offsets that are not constant in time and that would lead the integral to diverge.
  • the integral is approximated with a low-pass filter, so to diminish the drift problems.
  • a high-pass filter is applied.
  • the present invention relate also to a method for estimating the velocity starting from the velocity lost during the hit. Thanks to this approach, it is possible to ignore the velocity variations before the impact and, therefore, also the problems related to them.
  • This method of measuring the power of an impact of a wearable device comprising one or more impact sensors and at least one accelerometer , comprises the following steps:
  • the energy of each impact is also calculated from the power .
  • the velocity vector is taken into account for the calculation of the power of the impact only in the time period when said velocity is decreasing during the impact .
