Abstract
An electronic system for selectively measuring predetermined athletic parameters, such as reaction time and impact energy, and for displaying the results of the measurements is disclosed. The system includes transducer apparatus for sensing a participant's athletic reaction or motion, a selectively actuable timing circuitry responsive to initiation for providing after a pseudo-random delay a start signal to which the participant is to respond, and logic circuitry responsive to the transducer output. The timing circuit utilizes information provided by the logic circuitry and provides outputs indicative of predetermined parameters of the participant's motion or reaction time. The disclosed system further includes display apparatus responsive to the timing circuit outputs for displaying indicia of the measured parameters.
