Injury Prediction and Prevention through AI
AI's Injury Prediction and Prevention have taken a big step toward securing athletes' care. Technology and techniques are leading the way to safer player mindfulness with less injury and a more effective rehabilitation process. AI powered wearables and biometric tracking devices such as the WHOOP strap, Oura Ring, and Catapult are changing the way the athletes' physiological variables are monitored in real time. These devices monitor variance in heart rate, sleep quality, muscle strain, and respiratory rate. BY continuously analyzing these data, AI recognizes the first signals of potential overexertion, dehydration, or insufficient recovery that, eventually, may end in an injury. For example, a decrease in heart rate variation may be a sign of fatigue which makes coaches rearrange an athlete's training. AI doesn't only just monitor data, it gives specific recovery methods for individual cases. Monitoring biometric trends over time, AI supports development of indivi...
