Abstract
A mounting system for attaching a mobile device having a mobile device camera and an interface to sports equipment during use of such sports equipment. The mounting system includes a cradle adapted to retain the mobile device without obstructing operation of the mobile device camera or interfering with access to the interface. A pivoting joint attaches the cradle to an extension arm that permits the cradle to be moved in pitch, yaw, and roll relative to the extension arm. One or more mounting structures are provided to pivotally attach the extension arm to the sports equipment so that the interface is oriented toward and accessible by a user of the sports equipment, and the mobile device camera is oriented to capture user's perspective during use of the sports equipment. At least one sport-specific software application is loaded on the mobile device.
