Sport Informatics and Analytics/Capstone/Monitoring Performance

Monitoring performance
The third theme in this course was Performance Monitoring. In this theme we:


 * Presented some background information about performance monitoring.
 * Discussed the development of wearable technologies to monitor performance.
 * Explored some examples of motion and video tracking technologies.

We took the opportunity to look at the quantification of personal performance (the quantified self). This gave us the opportunity to consider some of the ethical issues involved in monitoring and surveillance including a discussion about anonymity and confidentiality of data.
