  • Publication number: 20240123289
    Abstract: Performance of an athlete is evaluated using position data of the athlete over time during performance of a set of movements. Movement metrics for the set of movements are determined, the movement metrics including measures of acceleration and power. Performance metrics for the athlete are then calculated to indicate the athlete's strength and speed. A reference data set is defined based on various attributes associated with the athlete. The performance metrics are applied to the reference data set to determine a performance category for the athlete, the performance category indicating relative strength and speed of the athlete among other athletes represented in the reference data set. Lastly, a training regimen for the athlete is generated based on the performance category.

  • Publication number: 20200077990
    Abstract: Various technologies for cartilage harvesting are provided. Some of the technologies include a method including coupling a cutting head onto an actuator; applying a force to the cutting head via the actuator; and cutting a cartilage with the cutting head based on the force. Some of the technologies include a method including coupling an adapter to a rotary tool, wherein the adapter adapts the rotary tool from a rotary power to an impact power; coupling a cutting head to the adapter; applying a force to the cutting head via the adapter; and cutting a cartilage with the cutting head based on the force. Some of the technologies include a device including a cutting head hosting a plug that is able to travel within the cutting head. Some of the technologies may include an extracted chondrocyte including a sidewall inclined from about five degrees to about twenty five degrees.
