59 Taiwan Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association to provide immediate corrective feedback. For example, if knees collapse or the trunk leans excessively during a squat, the system instantly alerts: ‘Your right knee is caving inward—reset your stance before continuing’. This ‘AI + motion perception’ model helps users maintain good movement quality without direct coach supervision, greatly reducing risks. AI also records long-term data to chart growth curves and design progressive challenges. In children’s fitness education, for instance, AI can recommend personalized games based on coordination and reaction speed, making sports education fun and adaptive. Conclusion Reviewing the three core trends of sports technology—markerless motion capture, wearable sensors, and AI-assisted analysis and prediction—it is evident that technology is redefining the relationship between people and sports with unprecedented speed and depth. Whether you are an elite athlete, an ordinary fitness enthusiast, or an elderly person seeking healthy aging, this revolution of data, sensing, and intelligent algorithms is quietly tailoring your next stage of training and health. For the sports industry, this transformation is not just an upgrade in tools, but a reorganization of the entire ecosystem. Coaches are shifting from traditional instructors to ‘data interpreters’ and ‘strategic planners’. Gyms and fitness centers are evolving into smart hybrid environments. Equipment manufacturers, health insurance companies, and data platform providers are collaborating to co-create new business models. The integration of AI and sports science will create an era of more personalized, efficient, and predictive training. However, we must remain cautious—technology is not omnipotent. It cannot replace bodily awareness or completely eliminate risks. The key lies in making technology a tool that assists decision-making and enhances awareness, not one that leads people to over-rely on indicators while neglecting their own sensations. Therefore, ‘human-centered design’ and ‘technological literacy’ will be the keywords that determine whether this revolution can successfully take root.
