The problem this group wants to tacke is that many swimmers have flaws in their swimming technique, while the quality and quantity of trainers is declining in many amateur clubs. To solve the problem we want to create a swimsuit with sensors that track the position and orientation of the limbs of swimmers. The suit should then be able to give feedback based on the data the sensors aqcuire. | |||
The users: people who swim for sport (as amateurs, professionals generally have a lot of good coaches) and wish to improve their technique (pretty much all of them). | |||
Requirements: The suit should not be too heavy or inhibit motion too much, as the swimmers should be able to swim as normal while the suit is measuring. It should also be a one size fits all solution, as this means swimming clubs have to purchase less suits. | |||
Approach: Preferrably we would like to do this using sensors on the suit, as this means that all of the technology would be on the suit, meaning no external infrastructure is required in the swimming pool.

Problem statement and objective
The problem this group wants to tacke is that many swimmers have flaws in their swimming technique, while the quality and quantity of trainers is declining in many amateur clubs. To solve the problem we want to create a swimsuit with sensors that track the position and orientation of the limbs of swimmers. The suit should then be able to give feedback based on the data the sensors aqcuire.
The users: people who swim for sport (as amateurs, professionals generally have a lot of good coaches) and wish to improve their technique (pretty much all of them).
Requirements: The suit should not be too heavy or inhibit motion too much, as the swimmers should be able to swim as normal while the suit is measuring. It should also be a one size fits all solution, as this means swimming clubs have to purchase less suits.
Approach: Preferrably we would like to do this using sensors on the suit, as this means that all of the technology would be on the suit, meaning no external infrastructure is required in the swimming pool. The sensors would be placed on top of or near joint locations, such as the shoulder, elbow and wrist for arms, and the hips, knees and ankles for legs.
