Measurement device for measuring distance traveled or speed for a skier or snowboarder, comprises pressure sensor and inclinometer whose signals are used to calculate distance traveled from the hill slope and a change in altitude

摘要

The distance traveled measurement device and or speedometer, especially for fastening to a ski or snowboard, whereby the distance traveled is measured by measuring hill gradients and changes in altitude. Altitude changes are measured using an electronic pressure sensor. An independent claim is also included for a corresponding device in which distance traveled and or speed are measured using a GPS receiver.
