"Analog Devices is very excited to lead this initiative, as it involves
a unique set of measurement and analytical challenges that we're
uniquely positioned to solve," said
Complementing Analog Devices' sensing and measurement expertise, the
solution utilizes Hexoskin's innovative e-textile platform, which has
received strong praise and validation from the athletic and medical
communities. "Sports organizations are looking for integrated data
analytics solutions," said
The Microsoft Azure IoT technology helps to solve analysis and
user-experience challenges with a cloud-based analytics engine as well
as the user dashboard application. "Helping our customers quickly and
easily innovate with IoT is core to our Microsoft Azure IoT offerings,"
said
The IoT solution is currently being implemented and tested in collaboration with one of Ireland's most prominent hurling clubs. "It's an extremely tough and demanding team sport, with athletes at the pinnacle of performance," said Cotter. "We felt this was one of the toughest environments in which to test the technology."
While the initial prototypes were developed for athlete management, the technology has implications across numerous team-based settings (e.g. emergency services first-responders) where performance, health and safety, and tactical decision-making are critical to enable a successful outcome.
