By examining the current characteristics of #sport and #athlete, #sportfuturism is a thought experiment that establishes a hypothesis and expected trends for the #future in the light of developments in the social sciences, natural sciences, and interdisciplinary sciences. #sfx

The AI ​​Revolution in Sports How is AI Transforming Elite Sports and Coaching? Artificial intelligence (AI) has now left the lab and entered the sports field. It analyzes data that could previously only be judged by feeling or experience.

1. Performance analysis – when data speaks Artificial intelligence can process vast amounts of training data and recognize patterns that are invisible to the human eye. Speed, acceleration, heart rate, fatigue curves – every little vibration counts.

2. Motion analysis – AI as a digital technical coach Computer vision is revolutionizing motion analysis. AI is able to evaluate even the smallest movements: running stride, arm tempo, throwing motion, posture.

3. Personalized training planning AI is now able to evaluate thousands of data points about an athlete: age, body composition, sleep, hormonal changes, regeneration data. From these, it creates personalized training plans that adapt to the athlete's current condition day by day.

4. Regeneration and mental preparation Artificial intelligence is also increasingly decisive in the field of rest and mental health. AI models that analyze sleep quality, stress index or heart rate variability can predict when a rest day or mental distraction is needed.

5. Transformation of the role of the coach Artificial intelligence will not replace the coach - but will reinterpret his role. In the future, the coach will be a decision-support expert who draws conclusions from data but interprets it as a human being.

6. The sport of the future - harmony of man and machine Digital twins, virtual coaching assistants, tactical simulations - all this is no longer the world of science fiction. Artificial intelligence will be able to model the performance of the athlete and analyzing strategy.

However, ethical questions remain with us: How long will we let the machine decide for us? Where is the line between optimization and manipulation?

Alliance, not competition Artificial intelligence does not work against people, but for people. It helps us to better understand how the body works, optimize the load, and create a balance between performance and health.

I had the privilege of touring Figure's Sunnyvale office yesterday, though calling it just an office would be a massive understatement. There's a whole lot more happening under that roof than you'd expect. The first thing that struck me was how densely packed the space is.

BOA Technology typically turns around a 10 person study in three weeks, and it will have two or three studies running in parallel, meaning their #ViconPowered lab has to perform upwards of 850 tests per year. Read the full case study: https://t.co/fzTNp3rCaR
