Abstract

A system for measuring vertical jump is disclosed, in accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure. The system may include a vane assembly comprising a plurality of vanes movably coupled to an extendable member at a plurality of heights relative to a ground level, each being vane displaceable from an original position to a displaced position in response to contact from a user. The system may also include a measurement device configured to obtain at least one of: a baseline height from a first vane of the plurality of vanes to the ground level; a user height; a user reach; or a displacement height, wherein the displacement height is the height of the uppermost vane in a displaced position relative to the ground level. The system may also include a controller communicatively coupled to the measurement device.
