Application of Smart Wearable Devices in Sports Performance Analysis and Enhancement

Sports characteristics and physiological signals serve as critical benchmarks for analyzing athletic performance and enhancing training methodologies. This study explores the design and development of an advanced smart wearable device system tailored for monitoring sports training. This system is engineered to track athletic performance in real-time by integrating embedded wearable devices with sophisticated software. It primarily encompasses the recognition of human movement states, detection of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals, and monitoring of respiratory signals, thereby facilitating comprehensive analysis of human physiological parameters and movement metrics. This, in turn, supports athletes in optimizing their training routines. Empirical results from the study indicate that the mean-square error for both ECG and respiratory signals recorded during testing approximated ±0.8Hz, falling within the predetermined error tolerance range. Additionally, analyses of joint angle variations during running activities confirmed the efficacy of the proposed smart wearable system in improving sports performance.
