Application: Multi-modal on-field position determination (Patent ID: US20240188027A1)
The patent filed by NIKE Inc. describes a system that includes a player network hub forming a body area network with peripheral devices using a first wireless protocol and transmitting location information using a second wireless protocol. Relay network hubs form a wide area network with the player network hub and a master network hub, communicating in part via the second wireless protocol. The relay network hubs receive location information from the player network hub and determine the player network hub's location based on this information, using a reference point such as a field of play. The system allows for the transmission of data related to the player, including physiologic data and information about the proximity of auxiliary devices, to be collected and analyzed.
The method outlined in the patent involves forming a body area network with peripheral devices using a first wireless protocol and transmitting location information using a second wireless protocol with a player network hub. Relay network hubs then form a wide area network with the player network hub and a master network hub, determining the player network hub's location based on the relay network hubs' known locations relative to a reference point. The method also includes securing the player network hub during athletic activities, receiving and transmitting data from peripheral devices, and integrating the player network hub into apparel or equipment worn by the player. Additionally, the method involves using triangulation to determine the player network hub's location based on distance information from multiple relay network hubs.
