This week Will, Andy and special guest Shaun Barratt discuss how machine learning can be paired with computer vision analysis techniques in sports to benefit performance and athlete welfare. Shaun is a software engineer currently studying for a PhD in the Sports Engineering Research Group at Sheffield Hallam University. His expertise in programming has resulted in apps that can quantify activity without the need for invasive instrumentation. The potential of the work can advise coaches and legislative bodies to benefit and protect athletes. You can find out more about Shaun and his work HERE.
