Abstract
With the development of science and technology, how to use advanced monitoring technology to improve athletes’ performance and prevent sports injuries has become a research hotspot. The practical application of infrared thermal radiation image technology in badminton monitoring is studied, especially in the defect detection and expression recognition of players. In the process of badminton training and competition, the high resolution infrared thermal camera is used to capture the real-time thermal radiation image of athletes, and the expression of athletes is recorded by high-definition cameras. Image processing software is used to preprocess infrared thermal radiation images, develop and apply specific algorithms to analyze thermal radiation images, identify abnormal hot areas, and match them with known patterns of muscle fatigue and injury. Using a machine learning approach, the model is trained to recognize and classify athletes’ expressions to analyze their emotional states. The results show that the infrared thermal radiation imaging technology successfully identifies the abnormal hot areas of athletes during high-intensity training and competition, which are highly correlated with muscle fatigue and potential injury locations. The facial expression recognition technology accurately captures the emotional changes of athletes in different stages of the game, such as tension, excitement, fatigue, etc., and provides real-time emotional feedback for coaches. Combined with infrared thermal radiation imaging technology and expression recognition technology, coaches can adjust training plans and competition strategies more effectively, thus improving the overall performance of athletes. Through defect detection and expression recognition, the technology can not only help prevent sports injuries, but also improve the efficiency of training and competition.
期刊介绍:
Thermal Science and Engineering Progress (TSEP) publishes original, high-quality research articles that span activities ranging from fundamental scientific research and discussion of the more controversial thermodynamic theories, to developments in thermal engineering that are in many instances examples of the way scientists and engineers are addressing the challenges facing a growing population – smart cities and global warming – maximising thermodynamic efficiencies and minimising all heat losses. It is intended that these will be of current relevance and interest to industry, academia and other practitioners. It is evident that many specialised journals in thermal and, to some extent, in fluid disciplines tend to focus on topics that can be classified as fundamental in nature, or are ‘applied’ and near-market. Thermal Science and Engineering Progress will bridge the gap between these two areas, allowing authors to make an easy choice, should they or a journal editor feel that their papers are ‘out of scope’ when considering other journals. The range of topics covered by Thermal Science and Engineering Progress addresses the rapid rate of development being made in thermal transfer processes as they affect traditional fields, and important growth in the topical research areas of aerospace, thermal biological and medical systems, electronics and nano-technologies, renewable energy systems, food production (including agriculture), and the need to minimise man-made thermal impacts on climate change. Review articles on appropriate topics for TSEP are encouraged, although until TSEP is fully established, these will be limited in number. Before submitting such articles, please contact one of the Editors, or a member of the Editorial Advisory Board with an outline of your proposal and your expertise in the area of your review.
