Designing Inclusive Sports Technology for Broader Participation in Physical and Digital Sporting Environments
Sport and active participation play a critical role in physical health, social inclusion, wellbeing, and community connection. However, many people continue to face significant barriers to participation, including people with disabilities, and individuals experiencing mobility, sensory, cognitive, social, or economic constraint. Emerging sports technologies present new opportunities to broaden access and participation, yet many products, services, and systems remain designed for narrow user groups and performance contexts.This PhD project will investigate how sports technologies can be designed to support more …

My flow: Menstrual cycle Femtech for elite athlete performance optimisation through wearable technology
There is a need for additional studies to monitor on-field performance parameters in female elite athletes (Meignié 2021). We know that wearable sensors can be used to monitor the physiological and biochemical profile of athletes (Seshadri 2019), and a combination of several wearables is going to be more effective for accessing all relevant parameters (Düking 2016). However, there is limited research on the effects of menstrual cycle phases on elite athlete performance (Meignié 2021).This proposed research aims to bridge the …
