Mobile image capture system
View Patent ↗A mobile image capture system, a system comprising: a sensing unit for attaching to a vehicle, the sensing unit having a camera constructed and arranged to view a participant on the vehicle, the camera capturing at least one image; and processing electronics for storing data representing the captured at least one image or for relaying data representing the captured at least one image to a computer or a network.
1. A mobile image capture system, comprising:
a sensing unit comprising at least one sensor and at least one camera, wherein the at least one sensor and the at least one camera are attached to an article of footwear worn by a participant, and wherein the at least one camera is constructed and arranged to view the participant while the participant is wearing the article of footwear, the at least one camera capturing a sequence of images of the participant while wearing the article of footwear; and
processing electronics for storing data representing the captured sequence of images or for relaying data representing the captured sequence of images to a computer or a network.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the processing electronics relay data representing the captured at least one image to the computer or the network in real-time.
3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the at least one image includes a sequence of images.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the processing electronics include digital video memory for storing data representing the captured at least one image.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the sensing unit further comprises an interface for transmitting data representing the captured image to the computer or the network.
6. The system of claim 1 , further comprising an antenna and relay electronics for transferring data representing the captured image to a remote location.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the computer includes a CD or DVD ROM storage device for storing data representing the captured at least one image.
8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one image includes a sequence of images.
