| Summary: | Biosensor technologies have revolutionized various domains, including sports applications. The use of biosensors forsports applications are aimed at enhancing athlete performance, monitoring health and fitness levels, and preventing injuries. In Malaysia, several research institutions, universities, and sports organisations have been involved in the development and implementation of biosensors for sports. These institutions work on various aspects, including sensor design, data analysis, and integration with wearable devices.
One example of biosensor research in Malaysia is the development of wearable sensors for athlete monitoring and performance optimisation. These sensors can measure physiological parameters such as heart rate, body temperature, oxygen saturation, and movement patterns. The collected data can be used to assess an athlete's physical
condition, track training progress, and tailor training programs to individual needs.
Furthermore, In Malaysia, biosensors are also being investigated for use in sports injury prevention and recovery. Biosensors can help identify movement patterns that may result in injuries by monitoring biomechanical data such as joint angles, forces, and muscle activation patterns. They can also give athletes and coaches feedback to help them fix poor technique or posture.
The National Sports Institute of Malaysia (ISN) is one of the major sports organisations that implement sports science and technology programmes, such as the usage of biosensors. In order to incorporate biosensor technology into athlete training and monitoring programmes, the
ISN works with researchers and sports professionals. |
