ABSTRACT:
A follow-through measuring device for measuring and displaying the time duration of impact comprises a piezoelectric sensor for sensing the presence of force while the athletic implement is in contact with a ball. The sensor provides a signals with a time duration equal to the time of contact of the ball with the striking implement. The follow-through measuring device further comprises a display unit which houses a receiver, a timer circuit, and a clock display. The signal provided by the sensor is transmitted to the receiver in the display unit, via an rf signal. The timer circuit measures the duration of time which the signal exceed a predetermined trigger level. The display unit then displays the measured time on the clock display.
