Client story
SportScientia: a smart insole that predicts athlete injuries
Background
SportScientia is building an ecosystem of smart wearables that monitors, predicts and prevents injuries and extends athletes’ careers.
Challenge
According to SportScientia, injuries cost professional football clubs an average of USD 12.4 million per club in 2015. Player absences account for the loss of 10–30% of payroll. Amateur football has no affordable monitoring.
Solution
The sensor insole measures load distribution, gait and energy expenditure in real time; the mobile app and analytics portal predict injuries, support recovery and measure performance.
