Abstract
As we delve into the diverse applications of motion tracking from Space to Air and Land, we encounter distinct challenges and opportunities. However, the most significant arise in the aquatic domain, particularly in the maritime environment. The unique characteristics of water behaviour demand novel solutions for accurately tracking and interpreting movement in this dynamic environment. An outstanding outcome of my Sports Sciences PhD was the Fluid Flow Sensor. This groundbreaking multi-sensor innovation enables tracking data considering water flow, expanding research horizons of analytics in water sports. Notably, the technology showcased its exceptional potential through a successful pilot study during a surfing session in the extreme conditions of Nazaré Giant Waves (Portugal), illustrating its remarkable capabilities for advancing research in water sports and related fields.
