The Rio Olympics play: LED, VR, high-tech wearable devices such as Qi battle!

Although Rio Olympic schedule has been more than half, but the player was in full swing. For great athletes, success and failure are often only a line of separation - 1/100 seconds, the end line fine as the hair gap. The 2016 Rio Olympic Games should look at what? In addition to the Olympic athletes on the field, this year's "black science and technology" is definitely you should not miss the highlights ~!

1, gymnastics baby: infrared LED wearable therapeutic instrument

Although the level of infrastructure is not so satisfying the Rio Olympic Games, but the saying goes, "who better -- the American gymnastics group undoubtedly to understand this very place on their own, in order to help their Olympic athletes reduce pain, relieve tension at any time, they put the LumiWave therapeutic instrument and take over the upgraded version of the.

It is understood that the Lumi Wave is a wearable infrared therapeutic instrument, can use light therapy to help patients relieve pain, especially for injury, sprain and joint inflammation is very effective for patients after recovery can be fast. As early as in 2004, Lumi Wave began to spread within the Olympic team, but until today officially foreign sales.

Specifically, the device is equipped with 50 infrared LED lights, when the athletes put Lumi Wave worn on the body, the device will transmit pulse signal so as to promote the athletes injury affected the blood circulation, to further enhance the human body the release of nitric oxide, and ultimately accelerate the restoration of individual cells.

2, GE lighting LED biosensor monitoring athletes

2016 Summer Olympic Games held in Rio De Janeiro from 21 to August 5th. GE lighting for the Olympic Games to provide LED biosensors are used in many lighting venues for monitoring the performance of athletes.

According to the Jakarta post, GE provides services for many areas of the Rio Olympics, including lighting, healthcare, energy and digital performance management etc..

LED lights are not only used to illuminate the stadium, it has also been embedded in the biosensor to visually monitor the performance of athletes. DailyDot's report shows that the development of LED GE embedded biometric sensors, can monitor the performance of athletes, their trajectory into light and shadow.

GE global business marketing leader Steve Pepe said: "the use of GE pulse sensor receives the analog, and the signal is converted into digital information, and noise processing for measuring collocation customized software, then the analog signal into a series of different red green and blue LED lights. "

The information received from the sensor is converted to light at a rate of 240 times per second, so it is very accurate to reflect the activities of the players. These LED lights will become a digital pen, the use of slow motion photography, as well as time-lapse exposure photography will be able to visualize the light, showing the flexibility of the athlete's body.

3, the welfare of their own teams: Solos smart glasses improve training efficiency

This is a Google glasses with similar smart devices, the only difference is that it is very popular in cycling athletes -- it is the name of the Solos smart glasses, the current team USA Cycling in training has been very popular.

Specifically, this very common appearance of the glasses were adjusted for the cyclist, built-in heart rate sensors, can monitor the athlete's heart rate, combustion heat, can also provide real-time navigation and telephone function. Similar to Google glasses, Solos will display in the direct projection lens, motion quantization, and then according to the given state athletes personalized advice, so as to help the athletes to adjust the tempo and speed. To facilitate communication between coaches and athletes, Solos also supports stereo headphones.

4, swimmer's Gospel: BMW underwater tracking

BMW will not only do the car, they will also help coach quantify the athletes in the underwater action.

It is understood that BMW as a partner of the U.S. Olympic Committee, specifically for the butterfly runner launched a smart system can monitor posture. Specifically, BMW's underwater system through the mini LED lights attached to the joint of athletes, such as wrist, shoulder, hip, knee, ankle and other locations, use light in underwater light, with the help of the underwater camera athletes swimming posture. Since then, the computer will use visual algorithm for analysis, data quantization. The algorithm has been used in BMW's automotive product line, as the core of its automatic cruise technology, can be used to identify road obstacles.

5, track and field athletes blessed: Aero Blades

This time China's national track and field team is really a "low-key luxury" - using Nike's Aero Blades technology, and this technology has only been used in sprint events.

It is reported that the technology in the tracksuit leg and arm sides add a "small triangle", in sports, these small triangle "dynamic environment surrounding gas regulation, thereby reducing the resistance of human body". At the same time, the Chinese team's sportswear is also said to have adopted the "black science and technology fabrics" - a high strength of the special fiber fabric. Athletes wearing this kind of material, can effectively improve the venous return, reduce blood stasis, accelerate metabolism and achieve short-term human energy recovery.

6, with the TV to watch the game? Try it with the VR helmet

If we can prove that VR technology has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, then the United States announced that it will provide 85 hours of NBC Virtual Olympic experience is undoubtedly the best
