  • Abstract
    Over the past 15 years, inertial sensors have evolved at impressive rates and have contributed greatly to the field of human movement analysis. The Olympic athletes can gain valuable insight into key aspects of their performance through the use of such technology and engineering experts can contribute greatly to their success. This paper sheds some light on the important role that engineering expertise can play in helping athletes achieve their dreams.
