Some projects ideas: 

My Digital Drone twin
Research project to build
a follow-me drone system that is equipped with a depth camera for kinematic analysis of human movements. Providing the possibility of obtaining near motion capture quality data of human body movement, in the field. Contact person: Martin Jacobsson, KTH,  martin.jacobsson@sth.kth.se

AugmentIT for shot put
A solution by developing an application that uses an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) as a method of detecting acceleration. Through the application, the obtained measurement data is presented visually with an associated synchronized video for motion analysis.
Contact person: Mikael Swarén, SUMS (Swedish Unit for Metrology in Sports),  swaren@kth.se

Sprint power plate with a registration application
Objective: Development of a board with starting blocks that measures the forces at sprint starts and where the start is controlled via an App that also registers and reports power games from the starting blocks.
Project mode: Start-up block with power sensor and Arduino electronics with certain software are already developed by KTH students and work well. Continued programming is, however, desirable in order to further refine the analysis possibilities of collected data.

Encodes with a continuous line for speed calculation at sprint starts
Objective: Development of a system where a wire, connected to a sprinter in athletics or swimming and the like, drives an encoder that enables continuous calculation of speed for about 20 m. Presentation of data in the app.

Timing system for measuring time at exercise and competition events
Objective: Development of time measuring equipment that can be used indoors and outdoors. Passing of start and finish position is registered with appropriate technology and with dual sensors. Communication between sensors at start and finish take place wirelessly to android. Time results are presented in the app.

contact person: Johnny Nilsson, GIH, johnny.nilsson@gih.se

Wii Balance board
Objective: Design a circuits and PCB board that suports higher sampling frequency and BLE transmission 

Carnival light
Objective: Built a light tower that in realtime can be controlled over BLE 

"Sensor pellet"
Objective: Continued development of IMU unit of very small format and with energy-efficient radio communication (BLE), SD-card, vibrator. 
contact person: Linus Remahl, KTH, remahl@kth.se

Team analysis with sensor setup
Objective: Configuration of a WiFi/Bluetooth setup together with motion sensors fitted on athletes/gear in a sports team. AI is used to convert sensor data to relevant insights. The setup communicates individual and team data to a cloud dashboard. Goal is to provide players and coach with insights such as player activity, player style, strenghts and weaknesses.
Multi-sensor player analysis
Objective: Evaluate the ultimate hardware design, configuration and viability for a case where 5 sensors are mounted on a human body. The system would operate with unsupervised AI in order to provide input for creating individual algorithms to understand a person's complete motion pattern no matter if in sports, lifestyle or ergonomics. Potential extra: correlation analysis with biometric data.
Sports health analysis
Objective: Sensitivity analysis of extremely fine sensor data output with purpose of finding patterns and deviations indicating health risks such as strain, muscle issues or fatigue.
Contact person: Felix von Heland, WRLDS, felix@wrlds.com 
Exxentric kBox leaderboard
Objective:  Development of UX to connect multiple Exxentric's kMeter sensors, displaying users training data vs. each other.
Exxentric Force plates
Objective: continuous development of Exxentric's force plates. A working prototype exists (except Ui) and can be provided. A project can include data-analysis and visualization from current prototype or continuous development of hardware/ firmware. More specified projects can be provided within each development area if requested.
Contact person: Jonathan Hussmo, Exxentric,  tech@exxentric.com

Measurement of nocturnal erections
Objective: Continuously measure over a 10 hour period using wire strain gauge sensor. 
contact person: Anders Cajander, KTH, cajander@kth.se

PCB construction of common health sensor:
Objective: In the courses sport and health instrumentation and medical and health instrumentation you will or have built different electronic circuits. Modernise the components and design PCB cards for the different circuits. 
Contat person: Mannan Mridha, KTH, mannan@kth.se
