The local organizers of the ECSS Congress 2015 in Malm\u00f6 will endeavour to increase the number of sessions and presentations \u2013 of all kinds \u2013 within the Social Sciences & Humanities area. To that end we will utilize the blog to present some of the sessions, and later presentations, in this particular area.<\/p>\n

The emerging technologies and infrastructures of connected devices and ubiquitous computing, commonly referred to as the Internet of Things, holds great potential for transforming sports practices: for competitive as well as recreational sports; for athletes as well as audiences; for performance as well as pleasure.<\/p>\n

The sports technology marketplace is brimming with new, digitally enhanced products, mostly combining biometric monitoring with social media to support improved training regimes for affluent amateurs in endurance and precision sports. However, there is a wealth of possibilities waiting to be discovered at the intersection of state-of-the-art research in biomechanics and physiology within sport science, data analysis and machine learning within computer science, and embodied interaction and experience design within interaction design. This amounts to the formation of an inherently interdisciplinary research area.<\/p>\n

The proposed invited session pulls together three presentations from cutting edge work in this area. What they all have in common is a fascination for the dynamic interplay between human practices and technological developments, leading to explorative research approaches where innovative technology evolves in parallel with forms of training and other sports practices. The presentations are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Internet of Sports Applications
    \n<\/em>Dr. Stina Nylander, Mobile Life Vinn Excellence Center, Swedish Institute of Computer Science, Sweden<\/li>\n
  2. Sport Analytics in Golf
    \n<\/em>Dr. Ulf Johansson, University of Bor\u00e5s, Sweden
    \nDr. Anders Dahlbom, University of Sk\u00f6vde, Sweden<\/li>\n
  3. Interaction in Motion
    \n<\/em>Dr. Joe Marshall, Mixed Reality Lab, University of Nottingham, UK<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Contact persons for this session are:<\/p>\n
