65 Taiwan Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association performance. You’ve probably used GPS on your smartphone or smart watch without even realizing it. It’s everywhere these days! GPS helps runners measure their distances and set training goals. Cyclists rely on it for real-time speed info, keeping their rides smooth. GPS isn’t limited to personal use; it’s also an essential tool for professional sports teams to monitor their athletes. For instance, in sports like soccer and rugby, where players cover large areas, GPS tracking helps teams keep an eye on their players. By continuously monitoring players’ positions through GPS, along with algorithm, teams can obtain data on player speed, acceleration, and various biomechanical parameters. This information is invaluable for long-term fitness tracking and monitoring. During a game, coaches can access this real-time data on tablets for quick decision-making and post-match analysis and adjustments. But GPS has its limitations, it’s signals can be obstructed indoors. That’s where Local Positioning System (LPS) comes to the rescue. It specifically designed for precise indoor athlete positioning. In the past, LPS was primarily used for tracking people or objects inside buildings, determining their coordinates in indoor spaces. Back in the day around 2010-2015, GPS ruled the athlete tracking game, but its accuracy issues pushed LPS into the spotlight.
