The Sport and Technology Research Group met at the University of Canberra this morning.
There were two presentations of work in progress:
- Stephen Barras, Sonification and Sweatsonics
- Gordon Waddington and Tracey Dickson, Real-Time Spatial Variable Measurement in Snow Sports
Stephen used his blog, Swimming Bird, to share his work with the Group.
His talk included reference to:
- Sonification of Rowing (with Nina Schaffert)
- Flotsam, Jetsam and Lagan
- Sweatsonics
- Mozzi
Gordon and Tracey shared their research on Snow Sports data acquisition. Their presentation (Personal Speed in Snow Sports) was a follow up to their attendance at the 5th Asia Pacific Congress on Sports Technology (they have published two papers from this conference: Evaluating the use of a GPS data logging device; Investigating head impacts).
The presentation has been published as a paper (2012). Gordon and Tracey have work together on other snow sports projects including this study of hydration.
