General Description
Introduction
STT provides trainers and sportmen (of any level) with the most advanced motion-capture technologies, artificial vision, biomechanical calculations and 3D visualization. All these products are the result of years of experience (the first developments were made in Barcelona ’92) and cooperation with entities such as the High Performance Center of San Cugat (www.car.edu), the Real Sociedad de Fútbol of San Sebastian and with professional golf, tennis and soccer players and trainers, swimmers, etc.


Technical gesture and motion capture
The use of the motion capture technology is a very important added value in any step when training, especially in those sports where the technical movements are exercised during training sessions. The golf swing is the technical gesture where these applications have been mostly used. Though in other sports like tennis, soccer, throwing disciplines in athletics, cycling, etc they have already started using the analysis of captures integrated with biomechanical analysis with excellent results. STT has developed specific applications for each of the following sports : golf, tennis, soccer, baseball and throwing disciplines.


Machine vision
The application of machine vision to the swimming team (or swimmers) represented in the Barcelona 2003 World Championships a very important leap, obtaining partial data and swimmers’ statistics. The INTHEPOOL system, developed together with the Olympic Training Center of San Cugat and the University of Granada was very successfully used in the a.m. championship.
