Abstract

This study intends to develop a more improved starting block precision sensor for the enhancement of performance and for a kinematic analysis of the short-distance-dash. The production is equipped with a strain gauge attached to the symmetric beam structure for the existing starting block currently on the market. It is found to show that equipment has 5 times more improved effects, indicating that the beam structure devised in this study is effective, and that reliable results can be achieved. In the future, an additional research will be conducted on the impact of training track athletes with this starting block sensor upon correcting their starting positions and improving records in the short-distance-dash.
