USE OF MICRO ELECTROMECHANICAL SYSTEMS IN SPORTS

Öz

The global positioning system (GPS) and inertial sensors are a widely used technology in sports performance to evaluate athletes' movement patterns and monitor training loads, both during competition and training. The data obtained from this system can be used to better understand the demands of both competitions and individual training. With the increasing speed of the competitions, technological developments in training science continue with it in order to better prepare the athletes for the conditions micro electromechanical systems, which is used in the world of sports science, is a product of this need. In order for athletes to be prepared for challenging competition conditions, it is very important to be able to observe the stressor factors in the training environment and the competition environment. By using MEMS, sports scientists and trainers can observe extreme training loads in competitions and trainings, and follow their athletes based on more objective data. MEMS allows us to monitor not only excessive training loads but also individual differences in athletes and follow up insufficient training loads. Thanks to the correct observation of the athletes through MEMS, it can achieve optimum performance by protecting them from injuries. MEMS, which has been widely used in recent years to transform the training of athletes into objective data, is of great importance in sports science. The aim of this review is; To research the information in theory about MEMS for sports scientists and coaches and to bring them together with the readers as applicable information.

MİKRO ELEKTROMEKANİK SİSTEMLERİN SPORDA KULLANIMI

Öz

Global pozisyon sistemi (GPS) ve atalet sensörleri hem müsabaka hem de antrenman sırasında sporcuların hareket modellerini değerlendirmek ve antrenman yüklerini görüntülemek için spor performansında yaygın olarak kullanılan bir teknolojidir. Bu sistemden elde edilen veriler hem müsabakaların hem de bireysel antrenmanların taleplerini daha iyi anlamak için kullanılabilir. Müsabakaların artan yoğun temposuyla birlikte sporcuların şartlara daha da iyi hazırlanabilmesi için antrenman bilimindeki teknolojik gelişmeler de beraberinde devam etmektedir. Spor bilimi dünyasında kullanılan mikro elektromekanik sistemler (MEMS) de bu ihtiyacın bir ürünüdür. Sporcuların zorlu müsabaka şartlarına hazırlanabilmesi için antrenman ortamında ve müsabaka ortamındaki stresör faktörlerinin gözlemlenebilmesi oldukça önemlidir. MEMS kullanarak spor bilimciler ve antrenörler müsabakalarda ve antrenmanlar da oluşan aşırı antrenman yüklerini gözlemleyip, sporcularını daha objektif verilere dayanarak takip edebilmektedir. MEMS sadece aşırı antrenman yüklerinin değil aynı zamanda sporculardaki bireysel farklılıkları da gözlemleyip yetersiz antrenman yüklerinin takibini yapabilmemize de olanak tanımaktadır. MEMS aracılığıyla sporcuların doğru gözlemlenmesi sayesinde sakatlıklardan koruyarak optimum performans elde edebilmektedir. Sporcuların antrenmanlarını objektif verilere dönüştürmek için son yıllarda oldukça popüler olarak kullanılan MEMS spor bilimi açısından büyük öneme sahiptir. Bu derlemenin amacı; spor bilimciler ve antrenörler için MEMS ile ilgili teorideki bilgilerin araştırılıp uygulanabilir bilgiler halinde okuyucularla buluşturulmasıdır.
