Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To measure stroke parameters during swimming under open water environment (OWS) have not yet achieved by difficulty in creating the measurement environment. There were two main purposes in this study. The first one was to attempt at measuring stroke frequency and representing its trend during swimming for an actual triathlon race, and the other was to verify the validity of the method using a motion sensor, which was developed for human motion measurements, to measure stroke parameters during front crawl swimming. This study was the first to measure stroke frequency of elite triathlete and to represent its trend during swimming for an actual triathlon race, and besides, was able to clarify great significance in analyzing strokes during OWS. Furthermore, the validity of the method using a motion sensor was verified in comparison to the method using video analysis. These results suggested that using a motion sensor could measure stroke frequency more easily during OWS.
