Sensor integration into clothes and sports equipment

Biomechanical and physiological measured data are increasingly contributing to athletes' training, for health monitoring and to improve the fitness during exercise. The miniaturization and performance improvement of embedded systems makes the use of small and smart sensors for fitness and sports applications interesting. Multiple body-worn sensors and sensors in sport equipment record physiological and biomechanical signals for motion analysis, statistical analysis or activity recognition.
