Real-time Sensor Monitoring System for University Sports Training
Advancements in material sciences and sensor technology have transformed sports engineering, enabling the real-time monitoring of physiological, biomechanical, and environmental parameters in university athletics.We reviewed recent developments and implications of real-time sensor monitoring systems in university sports training, emphasizing their effectiveness, challenges, and contributions to sensor technology development.The data collected from 2019-2024 publications across PubMed, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Xplore, Web of Science, and SPORTDiscus focused on athletes aged 18-25.The results showed that real-time monitoring systems improved training efficiency by 18-35%, reduced overtraining incidence by 28%, and enhanced skill acquisition rate, by up to 35% compared with traditional methods.Integrated multisensor platforms combining inertial measurement units, GPS, and environmental sensors are 40-60% more effective in enhancing performance and preventing injuries than single-sensor systems.Case studies from universities such as Notre Dame, Stanford, and Vermont in the United States of America demonstrated the successful implementation of the real-time monitoring system.The results provide a basis for next-generation sensor and material development, including MXene-based elastomer substrates and triboelectric nanogenerators, supporting the development of adaptive, high-durability, and energy-autonomous sensor architectures for high-stress collegiate training environments.
