Embedded systems for gold: the use of electronics in sports

Excellent sportive achievements are most commonly the result of a combination of strength, endurance, agility, technique and a lot of hard training. But can the support of embedded systems also contribute to better performances ? And if so, what do these systems look like ? What can they do and how is this beneficiary to the athlete ?
Next to that, embedded systems play an important role in creating the ideal circumstances wherein extraordinary sportive performances can be achieved: clocking lap-times, measuring distances,... .

All these questions and issues will be addressed in this DSP Valley technology seminar on December 21st, 2010. During this event we will let electronics companies show what systems they have developed that could be of use or are already used in sports today
