AIML Special Presentation: Translating Running Gait Assessments to In-field Application Using Wearable Sensors
- Date: Fri, 23 Aug 2024, 10:30 am - 11:15 am
- Location: AIML
- Dr Joel Fuller Sports Scientist & Physiotherapy Lecturer, Macquarie University
Dr Joel Fuller is a Sports Scientist and Physiotherapy researcher from Macquarie University. He has expertise in research areas related to biomechanics, wearable technology, performance enhancement and injury prevention. Joel presented findings from his most recent wearable technology research which used IMU systems to (1) identify fatigue onset in athletes during an intensive running training intervention and (2) identify and retrain runners at high risk of impact-related injuries. He described how his work is seeking to engage with machine learning and deep learning to enhance performance and injury prevention outcomes for athletes and explore potential avenues for research translation.
