Abstract

Dynamic visual indicators such as counter-predictive indicators are applied to apparel and apparatus for activities such as athletics. The counter-predictive indicators are configured to provide an indication of wearer / user orientation or anticipated future movement that differs from a true orientation or actual movement. Alternatively, the predictive indicators can be provided to reinforce or heighten perception of wearer / user orientation or anticipated future movement. In some examples, dynamic visual indicators provide apparent body axes that are tilted or displaced from a wearer's actual body axis. Such dynamic visual indicators can be selected based on measured responses to activity specific images or events.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to methods for configuring athletic apparel to increase or decrease the accuracy of visual estimates of expected player movement. Background technique [0002] Apparel for various sports has been customized to provide safety and comfort to the wearer, or for aesthetic reasons. For example, uniforms for sports teams are often outfitted in bright colors or made of materials that wick perspiration or control heat loss. Sports apparel is often adorned to be visually appealing or contain branding related to team sponsorships. Apparel for these and other sports may be configured for functionality and to help identify the wearer as a member of a team or other group. [0003] While apparel has been configured to enhance personal comfort and performance in many sports, typically decorated uniforms and apparel merely enhance wearer comfort or provide an attractive appearance. Such garments do not reflect important aspects of the...
