Supplements for exercising individuals

In collaboration with the National Association swimming and archery Finland, VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland it has developed a technology to improve sports performance.

Wearable sensors can be connected, for example, to pallets for the hands of a swimmer or to the equipment of an archer. From there, the data is transferred wirelessly to your smartphone or tablet of the coach.

Sensors embedded in the equipment provide surprisingly accurate data on swimming technique / shooting of people using them. This means, for example, the path length and the changes in it during swimming, the relationship between return, the average tensile for the shot of the bow, the hand position and the pressure exerted by the race in different directions ... information useful to optimize the performance of athletes.
