Athletic-wear having integral measuring sensors

Abstract

A system and method for tracking athletic movements, the system has one or more sensors, a computing unit, and external computing devices. The sensors generate electrical signals descriptive of detected physical movement of an athlete during a sporting event. The computing unit obtains the electrical signals generated by the sensors in real time. The computing unit determines athletic performance parameters in real time based on the electrical signals. The computing unit also computes performance assessments for the athlete based on the performance parameters. The performance assessments correspond specifically to a sport of the sporting event and indicate a peak athletic performance metric for the athlete. The external computing devices communicate data indicating content associated with the sporting event over a network to subscriber devices that are connected to a gambling network or fantasy sports league network, and the content enables an interactive display of performance assessments on the subscriber devices.
