College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences, University of Al-Mustansiriyah obtained a patent on designing a devise of the movement performance parameters determination (M.P.P.D).

The patent, in which granted by the Central Organization for Standardization and Quality Control Unit of the Ministry of Planning, aimed at designing a device that helps in determining the movement performance via recording values of the axes of motion that can be used in a diagram which reviews the movement of the body of the athlete during the actual practice in the training under the conditions of real performance in the competition.

The patent reviewed that the device consisting of sensors for directions placed on the outside of the palm of the hand contains two segments, the first is for accurate controlling and the second is the memory as well as these sensors record the values of change in the axes of movement (x, y, z) besides processing of these data programmatically to obtain the shape of the movement performance of the body and analysis.

The patent included providing the possibility of knowing the forms of the tracks with no need to the imaging techniques that are difficult to be used in some sports, especially those related to the aquatic environment such as swimming.
