Benefits of technology

The patent text describes a system and method for capturing and reporting scores in clay pigeon shooting competitions. The invention aims to improve the accuracy and reliability of scoring by automating the input of shot data and reducing human error. The invention is designed to be affordable, dependable, and effective in achieving its intended purposes. It uses existing processors for processing data and improves on existing methods for scoring. The technical effects of the invention include faster and more accurate scoring, reduced human error, and improved data integrity.

Problems solved by technology

For the 3S program, shooter and shot data input is slow and prone to errors.
The poor 3S interface does not easily accept digital data, in particular respecting scores.
Copying scores from paper applications and score sheets into the input screen of a computer program is cumbersome and unreliable, particularly for score sheets in at least two important ways.
First, especially during popular competitions, human errors may unintentionally suppress or enhance a competitor's true performance on the range.
Second, especially where wagering is a permitted component of the competition, human motives may intentionally alter a competitor's true performance.

Abstract

Described is a method of capturing and reporting scores including receiving shot event data composed of identity data respecting an identity of a shooter and shot data respecting a shot made by the shooter; recording the identity data, the shot data and a relationship therebetween; and processing the shot event data according to competition rules and generating score data. An apparatus and system configured for performing the method also is disclosed.

Description

REFERENCE TO EARLIER APPLICATION[0001]This Application incorporates by reference and, under 35 U.S.C. §119(e), claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 62 / 111,142 filed on Feb. 3, 2015.STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT[0002]This invention is not the subject of federally sponsored research or development.RESERVATION OF COPYRIGHTS[0003]Portions of the disclosure of this document contain material that is subject to copyright protection. The copyright owner has no objection to any reproduction of the document or disclosure as it appears in official records, but reserves all remaining rights under copyright.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0004]Clay pigeon shooting includes three major disciplines: 1. trap shooting; 2. skeet shooting; and 3. sporting clays. In trap shooting, the targets are launched from a single “house” or machine T, as shown in the Figure, generally away from the shooter. In skeet shooting, the targets are launched from t...
