Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de chronométrage comprenant un boîtier, un système de commande à l'intérieur du boîtier, et un capteur de choc connecté au système de commande et situé à l'intérieur du boîtier. Le système de commande reçoit un premier signal provenant du capteur de choc lorsque le capteur de choc détecte un premier choc ou une première vibration. Le système de commande reçoit un second signal provenant du capteur de choc lorsque le capteur de choc détecte un second choc ou une seconde vibration. Le système de commande lance un chronomètre en réponse à la réception du premier signal. Le système de commande arrête le chronomètre en réponse à la réception du second signal.
