MSc Research Position in Wireless Technologies at Tyndall National Institute

Overview
University College Cork, Tyndall National Institute invites applications for an MSc by Research position in Wireless Technologies to investigate and develop very low power, intelligent, easily configurable and deployable Wearable Wireless Inertial Sensor Networks for 3D motion capture for professional sports.

Background
In professional sports there are in general three steps required to improve performance namely task definition, training and performance assessment. This process is iteratively repeated and feedback generated from quantitative performance measurement is in turn used for task redefinition. However non-subjective performance evaluation is difficult due to the complexity of the movements involved. When considering the subset of sports where precision accuracy and repeatability are a necessity this problem becomes inherently more difficult to solve. Until recently these sports for example Tennis, Golf and Darts, where the smallest deviation from a prescribed movement goal can result in large outcome error, were deemed too difficult to characterize fully.
