Using Wearable Sensors to Estimate Mechanical Power Output in Cyclical Sports Other than Cycling: A Review

More insight into in-field mechanical power in cyclical sports is useful for coaches, sport scientists, and athletes for various reasons. To estimate in-field mechanical power, the use of wearable sensors can be a convenient solution. However, as many model options and approaches for mechanical power estimation using wearable sensors exist, and...

Getting the angles straight in speed skating: A validation study on an IMU filter design to measure the lean angle of the skate on the straights

To assist speed skaters in improving their skating performance, we would like to provide them with real time feedback on the orientation of the skate within a single stroke. While of course the forces generated by the skater on the ice determine the acceleration of the skater, the orientation of the skate determines in which direction this...
