In-Chest Sensors Gather Data on NFL Prospects | Playbook
Just below the sternum, the shirt also contains a removable sensor pack called a “bug” that holds a triaxial accelerometer, a processor and 2 gigabytes of storage. The information collected can be broadcast via Bluetooth to smartphones, iPads and laptops so that scouts and trainers can view the power and efficiency of each athlete’s movements. Heart-rate and breathing-rate monitors are placed on both sides of the sensor pack, helping to gather even more intel from the body’s core.
I just saw this on CNN, the athletes say after they perform a certain a skill they can check the readings and see if they got just a little better than the last time.
The shirt will track a complete core readout from the activity performed.
I real interested to see where this technology to lead.
