eesy-innovation is a leading expert in Internet of Things solutions in Germany, we are expanding what’s achievable in the sports industry.
Our skills cover almost every sport discipline, allowing us to create tailored IoT solutions in sports that address the specific challenges and opportunities within each field.

Explore our real-world case studies to discover how we empower athletes, coaches, and sports organizations with data-driven insights and revolutionary smart sport technology.

Our IoT solutions can benefit you in the sports industry

At eesy-innovation, we can create IoT solutions for sports that are capable of analysing real-time data from millions of points. We can assist you with the installation of IoT devices for tracking performance of players and for preventing players injuries in sports.
IoT devices provide essential information about the health of the players. This is helpful in avoiding injuries since they are used to identify “danger zones,” measure the amount of work that a player has done.

In order to enable players to assess their performance during the game we can design various devices, including wearables, sports equipment such as sportswear with embedded processors, GPS, cardio meters, accelerometers, and gyroscopes.

From player tracking and analysis, safety of players, to any intelligent sport solutions – we can collaborate to address the most pressing needs in the sports industry with IoT solutions.

CASE STUDY

A NEW COMMUNICATION FOR OLYMPIC SURFERS.

The challenge

Training for aspiring world class surfers has its fair share of challenges with communication being a major challenge. There are few issues as complicated as the manner by which surfers are taught due to the distances between them and their coaches along with the effects of water displacement. Furthermore, the fact that most surf training take place in areas that are hard to access and quite remote only adds to these problems of communication. The conventional approaches require surfers to swim back and forth to the shore for each conversation, resulting in rather tedious and unproductive practice sessions. This constant disruption is unproductive , time-consuming and hinders the implementation of lessons learned from the coaching process making it virtually useless at the moment.

The smart solution

In response, we have designed an exciting IoT application for surfing that revolutionizes the ways of communicating during surf training. The experience of using our IoT application is as simple and intuitive as it can be while incorporating cutting edge of the technology, making it highly effective for both surfers and their coaches.

Key features of our IoT surf training solution include:

Our IoT surf training solution using smart watches, Small Sensors and Communication Nodes, and smartwatch/mobile applications revolutionizing the surf coaching communication. Surfers wear smart watches that record real-time data and enable two-way communication. The BLE amplifier significantly extends the range of the communication which is limited by distance and water barrier. Coaches rely on a dedicated tablet application to track all surfers simultaneously , providing real-time feedback and instructions. Our solution provide the necessary security and simplicity to be easily integrated into other surf equipment therefore enhancing the training process for both athletes and coaches.

With this approach, our cutting-edge IoT applications in sport boosts the effectiveness of surf training and hence give the athletes the opportunity to make the most out of their time in the water to pursue their dream of becoming world-class athletes.

The challenge

Sports performance is a critical aspect in the competitive world of professional sports, and a method to quantify and evaluate the performance has always been a challenge Traditional methods often fall short as they fail to provide accurate and timely information to the athlete necessary for fine-tuning their training and performance. The general problem in the sports industry is that the metrics used are often incorrect and there is no real-time analysis of data that could show the margin of change in an athlete’s performance. Additionally, the problem of keeping up with the smooth communication between the athletes and the coaches especially in large and remote sports complexes has remained a challenge.

All these factors cumulatively deny the athletes the opportunity to achieve their best and compels the coaches struggling to offer informed guidance. The sports industry requires a solution that can close these gaps and offer complete and precise information on performance in real-time.

The smart solution

SportTECH offers an innovative IoT based solution to these challenges, using the latest technology to solve these problems. Our innovative system consists of  two advanced hardware modules:

BLE IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit):

    • A modern tool for accurate quantification of movement, acceleration and force.
    • Real time data acquisition and assessment.
    • Easy monitoring of performance including minor fluctuations  in performance levels.

 

BLE AMP (Bluetooth Low Energy Amplifier):

    • High tech radio signal booster.
    • Increasing Bluetooth operating range significantly.
    • Enhancing efficient communication between the athlete and the trainer especially during long distance training sessions.

 

Key benefits of SportTECH’s solution:

  • High-precision performance analysis.
  • Instant feedback for athletes and coaches.
  • Enhanced communication in challenging environments.
  • Data-driven training optimization.
  • Improved athlete safety through real-time monitoring.

 

Through incorporation of these state-of-the-art IoT devices, SportTECH provides athletes and coaches with valuable information on their performance parameters. Our system allows for real-time adjustments, facilitating for more effective decision-making ultimately resulting in improved athletic performance..

Real-time Body Temperature Monitoring Solution

The challenge

Measuring an athlete’s core body temperature during practice remains a challenge in the current world of competitive sports environment. This important factor is essential for the enhancement of high-level physical performance and protection of athlete. Conventional approaches are inadequate, providing limited or no real-time information to athletes and coaches.

At eesy innovation, our aim was to design an IoT solution that could fulfill this important requirement. We were to design a system to monitor body temperature in real-time at multiple points so as to meet the challenges of state-of-the-art sports science and performance athletics.

The smart solution

Thermaflow is our IoT solution designed to address the important issue of temperature control in the core of athletes. Our system achieves this by incorporating Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) features and highly accurate sensors enabling athletes, coaches and researchers gaining valuable information without interfering with user comfort and convenience. 

Key features of Thermaflow include:

  • Real time multiple point measurement functionalities.
  • Advanced waterproof design for harsh conditions
  • Using Bluetooth Low Energy integration for smooth data transfer
  • Using the least effort Discomfort free and contactless wearable biosensors

Thermaflow has garnered significant interest from leading institutions and professional sports teams like:

University of Almería: Our system has been deployed in a novel Physiology R&D project that is at the forefront of sports science innovation.

INEOS GRENADIERS: This world-class professional cycling team has shown high interest in the adoption of Thermaflow in the improvement of the athletes’ performances and safety.

With precise and real-time core temperature readings, Thermaflow enables the creation of specific cooling protocols enhancing athletic performance and minimize heat stress.

We are confident that our IoT solution will be the breakthrough in sports performance monitoring, providing athletes and teams across various disciplines , with a competitive edge. .
