Webinar | Plantar Pressure Mapping in Team Sports (Part 1): How to Profile Players with XSENSOR’s Intelligent Insoles

Written by XSENSOR Marketing | Aug 22, 2023 8:45:27 PM

In XSENSOR Technology's first webinar in the all-new 'Plantar Pressure Mapping in Team Sports' series, we explore using the Intelligent Insoles system to assess and profile players in team-based sports.

Team sports have been defined as a complex biological system where many factors are interconnected. The multidisciplinary nature of an athlete's care requires implementing testing and monitoring technologies to ensure adequate support and risk management.

Yet, the limited time available for testing players poses a problem, and the need for fast and reliable technology that provides accurate and detailed data is of paramount importance. Plantar pressure mapping can play a crucial role in team sports to support performance and decrease the risk of injury.

Key Takeaways from This Webinar:

  • Learn – The characteristics of team-based sports and why they need fast and reliable data to support player performance and monitor the risk of injury.
  • Understand – How plantar pressure mapping, like XSENSOR's Intelligent Insoles, can assist sports biomechanists and coaches in evaluating the biomechanical efficiency of players during movement patterns.
  • Experience – How to use a plantar pressure mapping system to create individual baseline pressure profiles for each player during the preseason.
