Score It! Tennis

App OverviewPeople playing in a tennis match want to track and have an electronic record of their shot statistics, but cannot easily do so while participating in the match, they need a 2nd person to track their performance on a computer, tablet or smart phone.

While software does exist to allow sports statistics to be electronically entered on a PC, tablet, or Phone, it requires someone other than the participant – such as a spectator or coach – to input the data. The “Score It!” software running on the wrist-wearable device will allow the participant to enter their match data themselves.NOTE: ScoreIt! Tennis is a shot statistics tracking app, not a game scoring app. Game Scoring would complicate the data entry if the user had to enter both a score AND a shot stat after each point is played.

OperationThe user will install the software on their smart-phone or tablet, and then the smart-phone or table will deploy the user interface to the wrist-wearable device.Before a tennis match, the user will start the app on the Watch, which will then initialize and start the input interface on the Watch.

For a tennis match, the user will choose the Match type, and then swipe to the Set and Game screen. The software will automatically record the date and time of the match, and start a timer to record Match Time, Set Time, and Game time.

The software has an input screen on the wrist-wearable device for each type of shot during the match, such as Forehand or Backhand. While playing the match, when the user hits a shot such as a forehand winner, they will “swipe” to move between input screens to find the “Forehands” screen, and then tap a button to increment the number of Forehand winners. This can be done very quickly using the wrist wearable device as to not interrupt or delay match play. As the games and match progress, the user will continue to enter statistics, and when the game ends can press a stop button to record the game statistics, then select a new game, and start the process again. The software will provide interfaces for all of the possible shots the player can hit, such as Aces, Double Faults, Forehand Winners, Forehand Unforced Errors, etc. At the end of the match, the user will tap the “End Match” button, which will trigger the software to compile all match statistics and sync the data to the “parent” app on the Smart-phone. The user can then view reports on the smart-phone.

When the Watch App starts, the user selects the Match Type. The

user navigates between screens by “Swiping”

When the match button is tapped, The Button label changes to “End”

and will be pressed to end the match, and a Match timer starts. The user then Swipes to move to

the next screen.
