  • a material for this example is leather.
  • a side effect here is that the cover also has a certain protective effect.
  • the covering element could be designed for use in boxing in the manner of a head protection, as is customary in amateur boxing or in training, and thus assume a certain protective function in addition to the function of receiving and transmitting the action values.
  • the display system can help increase the acceptance of protective clothing in the various sports.
  • a further embodiment of the invention to trigger an alarm when exceeded according to predetermined thresholds for the shock, pulse, acceleration and / or pressure, for an examination by a doctor present or to cancel the event leads, if the health of the athlete is to be feared by the impact.
  • optical signals can be used on the display device.
  • an acoustic signal as an alternative or in addition to the visual display on the graphical representation of the body part in the display device. This acoustic signal can optionally be issued only when the alarm / threshold value is exceeded or, alternatively, generally be output during an action, wherein pitch and / or pitch can be modulated depending on the strength of the action.
  • a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention relates to the use of the display system in boxing matches.
  • the protection of the head is of particular importance. Therefore, a cap / cap or thin helmet made of leather or other soft material is used as the cover.
  • This head protection has a defined thickness and contains a plurality of pressure sensors, which are introduced into the head protection at a defined distance from each other.
  • head hits can be detected and measured by the pressure sensors in their strength and the place of occurrence.
  • the size of the Impact surface are detected, as the result of multiple hits sensors are operated simultaneously. ..
  • the outputs of the sensors arranged closely in the head guard are transmitted by means of a transmission device wirelessly, for example by radio or infrared technology, to an external receiving device.
  • a transmission device wirelessly, for example by radio or infrared technology
  • an additional controller or a controller may be connected upstream, which carries out a preprocessing of the transmitted data, for example with regard to the assignment of the individual pressure sensors to a specific location of the head protection.
  • the receiving device is connected to a display device, which can be realized for example via a computer.
  • the computer evaluates the received data and is used for further processing and presentation of the received pressure values.
  • To display this offer, for example, large screens, which are hung visible to the audience.
  • the video screens often used in large sports arenas can be used.
  • the use of video projectors so-called Beamem conceivable.
  • the strength and location of the hit on a representation of the head of the boxer can be represented by tints or fades with different colors.
  • the graphical representation which is used as the basis for the representation of the hit, can be a schematic representation of the head. But it is also possible to capture from the often existing camera images by means of motion detection in the computer, the real head of the boxer and be used on the display device for displaying the hit. For this purpose, in an advantageous embodiment of the invention, corresponding markings can be present on the head protection, which facilitate motion detection in the computer and improve the local assignment of the hit.
  • the pressure sensors are calibrated accordingly and set a threshold for the intervention of a ring doctor.
  • a summation of the head hits can be used as a threshold for a possible abortion of a fight, when a predetermined total amount of acceleration trauma is reached at the head.
  • the head protection should also cover the chin area and parts of the neck so as to be able to record hits that occurred there as well.
