Abstract

Enables detection of events using motion capture sensors and potentially other sensors electromagnetic field, temperature, humidity, wind, pressure, elevation, light, sound, or heart rate sensors to confirm and post events, differentiate similar types of motion events to determine the type of equipment or activity or quality of the event, such proficiency. Enables motion capture data and other sensor data to be utilized to curate text, images, video, sound and post the results to social networks, for example in a dedicated feed. Embodiments of the system also may post or filter to social media sites using any other filter besides location and time and the text in the social media posts for example. May use motion or other sensor data to define and event, eliminate false positive events, post true events, and/or correlate the events with social media to confirm the events, or post the events in a particular channel.
