Ram@Lincoln Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 You're seeing it wrong. He's actually doing harder work, as he's doing it with the extra weight of the fabric in the tshirt, against the lightweight sports bra everyone is wearing.

All the tech needs to be around the chest area and if they designed it as part of a full shirt it would be cumbersome and unhelpful, probably. Looks silly in that context though, I agree. In case anyone is curious as to what the Statsports tech is actually doing here's a quick summary: Viper Pod Capabilities Measures total distance Measures speed Measures acceleration & deceleration Measures metabolic load distance Monitors heart rate Reports collisions Reports fatigue index Measures step balance (left & right) Measures dynamic stress load A unique feature of the Viper Pod is the software that is associated with the device. It allows coaches to see real-time player positioning and player motions from a bird’s eye view on a computer or TV monitor. This feature would normally have to be done with a camera but is possible with Viper Pod’s computer processing chip and GPS system within the hardware. Also because of its hardware it is able to have less interference compared with other devices when used in large stadiums with spectators using their cell phone or other cellular devices on the same network.

That is as fascinating as it is amazing .. You also find out any shirkers . Brilliant in a macro sense . But What would it say about a certain sort of player .. The Berbatovs of this world .. Those who's computer stats don't quite cut it but somehow are still great players ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean for an expert, a coach, it's just information to add on. What you actually see is going to be your primary decision maker and if the berbatovs of this world keep scoring I don't think they'll go missing. That being said, I think for the younger more raw players in the U21s these numbers are more important to the decision making of the staff. Not going to take a technically gifted U21 into the team if you're unsure they'll physicially be up to senior play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
