“All water sports, specifically swimming, are very technically driven sports, where only small differences in execution of movements result in huge improvements. At CONTEMPLAS we work hard to make these small differences easier to analyse and understand.
“We are thrilled to be partnering the FINA World Aquatics Convention this year, and very excited to demonstrate the capability our new technologies to the industry in Windsor. The Convention gives us the opportunity to present a dedicated solution for a particular group of customers; it allows all the right people to be in the right place.” (Stefan Klippel, Managing Director, CONTEMPLAS)
CONTEMPLAS are currently finalising a major installation in the Hong Kong Sports Institute, which includes 28 cameras for start-turn analysis, integration of force analysis, a timing system and full kinematic biomechanics analysis.
