Abstract

Sports-specific feedback systems are becoming an essential part of elite sports training. Various sensors are embedded in the sport equipment, the environment, or attached to the athlete. Mobile computers acquire the relevant data and present feedback information to coaches and athletes. To be most effective, feedback should be given shortly after motion execution. Several feedback systems used in rowing, table tennis, and biathlon offer examples practical examples and illustrate principles developers should observe when constructing such systems.
