The Science of Athletic Movement and Biomechanical Analysis 🏃
Athletes have worked with inertial sensors and motion capture systems to adjust their running and throwing techniques. Real-time data analysis allows for correcting cadence, launch angle, or force distribution in the stride. This approach, based on machine learning algorithms, aims to reduce the margin of error and optimize performance under real competition conditions, without relying on the coach's intuition.
