Abstract
A jump height measuring device for measuring vertical jump height of a user includes a detector and a microphone, which are communicatively engaged to a microcontroller. The detector is positionable on a surface so it can detect feet of a user upon the surface and communicate a first signal to the microcontroller upon the feet leaving the surface. The microphone is attached to a landing mat, which is positionable on the surface proximate to the detector. The microphone detects a sound of the feet of the user landing upon the landing mat and communicates a second signal to the microcontroller. The microcontroller is programmed to calculate a height of a jump based upon a difference in time between receipt of the first signal and receipt of the second signal. The device also can be used as a timer and to assess Explosive Leg Power Force and response time.
