Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The low amount of information reported in articles´ methodology about the use of electronic performance and tracking systems (EPTS) in sport has been highlighted before. A survey published in Sensors asked what criteria should be considered using these systems. This Special Issue on “Methodology Applications for Sensors-based Electronic Performance and Tracking Systems (EPTS) in Sport” aims to go into detail about the criteria suggested in the survey. Specifically, the aim is to assess the impact of the modifications in each criterion in the measurement, recording, and processing of the data. In this way, we can evaluate the accuracy of the measure according to the used methodology using sensor-based EPTS. This issue may drive a change within sport and the use of EPTS.
Considering that more research should be done and published about such important topics, the aim of this Special Issue is to publish high-quality original investigations and narrative and systematic reviews in the field. We look forward to receiving contributions related (but not limited) to the following topics:
- Electronic performance and tracking systems (EPTS);
- Sports analytics;
- Data recording;
- Data processing.
