INTRODUCTION AND MOTIVATION
Plantar pressure measurements have been integrated into AI algorithms to enhance technique classification. Data collection in ski mountaineering, including both ascents and descents, supports continuous analysis and long-term development of performance insights.
Combining inertial data and AI allows a deeper understanding of technique and performance in ski mountaineering.

IMU SYSTEM FOR SKI MOUNTAINEERING
The system was applied in ski mountaineering to capture real movement dynamics using IMUs placed on the skis. This allowed the measurement of acceleration and motion patterns during ascents in real mountain conditions.
The collected data supports the analysis of stride behavior and technique, providing valuable insights into performance in ski mountaineering scenarios.
Performance Analysis
Our integrated system utilizes high-precision IMUs placed strategically on the skis and athlete. This allows for synchronization between video analysis and physical
movement data.
