Wearable Technologies in Sports

In recent years, wearable technology has significantly impacted the sports and performance. This technology is becoming indispensable for anyone looking to gain a competitive edge in the sports world. Wearable technologies have become increasingly popular in recent years, as athletes and coaches look for ways to gain a competitive edge. They have become a pivotal tool in sports, revolutionizing how athletes train, compete, and recover. Wearable technology in sports uses electronic devices to track athletes physical activity, physiological responses, and biomechanical movements to improve performance, optimize training, and prevent injuries. These devices include GPS trackers, heart rate monitors, and motion sensors, among others. The purpose of this paper is to familiarize readers with the various uses of wearables in sports. Matthew N.
