This STTR Phase I project will develop Android and Apple iPhone apps to allow for mobile-enabled, rapid correction of improper or dangerous techniques in sports activities. The project goal is to eliminate dangerous, unhealthy behaviors in young athletes and replace them with non-damaging skills and techniques. In its simplest form, the technology presents a player with a video clip of their own behavior, paired with head impact data measured using worn sensors and physics-based simulations showing what occurs in the brain during dangerous hits. The quantitative biomechanical data is used to predict possible functional brain deficits and presented to the user in an age-appropriate manner. By combining a mouth guards with sensors, sideline video replay technology, physics-based brain simulations, on-line instruction and observational learning, coaches and trainers will be able to correct dangerous techniques and behaviors in sports activity as they occur. Coaches and trainers will also be able to show players video of their own technique following a significant impact to the head next to a synchronized clip of an athlete completing the same movements, but with no head impact. As a result, children and adolescents will learn there is never an acceptable level of head contact. Whether applied to football, hockey, lacrosse, soccer or one of any number of physical activities, this coaching tool will provide immediate instruction and self-reinforcing behavior modification. The proposed technology enables unprecedented resolution of the biomechanical response during sports activities by combining synchronized video, wearable impact sensors and physics-based simulations that will identify dangerous incidents, with the goal of obtaining real time technique modification and therefore a dramatic reduction in the occurrence of injury. It is important to note that while sensor technology and analytical methods have advanced dramatically in the last several years, the integration of synchronized video technology would be a critical tool in helping players understand and prevent dangerous head impacts from occurring in contact sports. The mobile apps will be an innovative approach to reducing the number and severity of concussive and sub concussive blows to the head. Integrating sensor data, synchronized with video technology and physics-based impact simulations showing what occurs in the brain during dangerous impacts into a mobile app is innovative to the sporting industry and offers an opportunity to improve player safety in sports. The broader impact of the system is to show students and athletes dangerous techniques as soon as they occur along side of how their behavior could be modified, which will reduce the occurrence of serious injuries in sports and fitness pursuits causing health-enhancing activities to be rendered much safer.

该STTR第一阶段项目将开发Android和Apple iPhone应用程序，以允许移动启用，快速纠正体育活动中的不当或危险技术。该项目的目标是消除年轻运动员中危险、不健康的行为，代之以非破坏性的技能和技术。 在最简单的形式中，该技术向玩家展示了他们自己行为的视频片段，并结合使用佩戴的传感器和基于物理的模拟测量的头部撞击数据，显示了在危险撞击期间大脑中发生的事情。定量生物力学数据用于预测可能的功能性脑缺陷，并以适合年龄的方式呈现给用户。通过将护齿器与传感器、边线视频回放技术、基于物理的大脑模拟、在线指导和观察学习相结合，教练和训练员将能够在体育活动中纠正危险的技术和行为。教练和训练员也将能够向球员展示他们自己的技术视频后，一个重大的影响，以头部旁边的同步剪辑的运动员完成相同的动作，但没有头部的影响。因此，儿童和青少年将了解到，头部接触永远不会达到可接受的水平。无论是应用于足球，曲棍球，长曲棍球，足球或任何数量的体育活动之一，这个教练工具将提供即时的指导和自我强化的行为修改。所提出的技术通过结合同步视频、可穿戴冲击传感器和基于物理的模拟来实现体育活动期间生物力学响应的前所未有的分辨率，这些模拟将识别危险事件，其目标是获得真实的时间技术修改，从而大幅减少受伤的发生。 值得注意的是，虽然传感器技术和分析方法在过去几年中取得了显着进步，但同步视频技术的集成将是帮助球员了解和防止接触性运动中发生危险头部撞击的关键工具。 这些移动的应用程序将是一种创新的方法，可以减少对头部的脑震荡和亚脑震荡打击的数量和严重程度。将传感器数据与视频技术和基于物理的碰撞模拟同步，显示在移动的应用程序中发生的危险碰撞过程中大脑中发生的情况，这对体育行业来说是一种创新，并为提高运动员的安全性提供了机会。该系统的更广泛的影响是显示学生和运动员危险的技术，只要他们发生沿着他们的行为可以修改的一面，这将减少发生严重伤害的运动和健身追求造成健康增强活动变得更加安全。
