Description
Summary:The use of innovative technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and wearable technology has revolutionized sports training, enhancing sporting performance as well as the prevention of injury. This review provides an overview of the utilization and effectiveness of these technologies in contemporary sport with main focus on their role in the tracking real-time performance, tailored training, and the development of cognitive skills. AI and machine learning models provide insightful recommendations on optimizing training loads and injury forecasting, whereas VR and AR create experiential environments for developing decision-making and mental resilience. Continuous physiological and biomechanical monitoring is made possible through wearable sensor devices, presenting athletes and coaches with actionable insights for personalized training plans. In spite of the encouraging developments, challenges abound in the form of data accuracy, privacy concerns, and the high cost of implementation. The review emphasizes the revolutionary nature of such technologies and outlines the imperative for ongoing research to overcome the shortcomings of these technologies and realize their full potential to sporting performance.
