All events of the 33rd Summer Olympic Games ended at 5 pm local time on August 11th in Paris, France. The Chinese sports delegation concluded with excellent results of 40 gold medals, 27 silver medals, and 24 bronze medals. Among them, the number of gold medals created the best record in overseas competition history, tied for first place with the US team. Competitive sports pursue "faster, higher, stronger", and in this process, technology plays an important role. Behind the shining "Chinese Red" on the Olympic stage, the "competition" of sports technology is also unfolding, from material selection, training, equipment to sports rehabilitation, every link cannot do without technological support. The application of new technologies has also become the focus of competition in the "technology arena". Intelligent assistance, more significant training effect. At the Paris Olympics tennis court, 21-year-old Zheng Qinwen competed continuously and won the first Olympic individual tennis gold medal in Asian history. At the China Sports Big Data Center of Beijing Sport University, a data analysis team of 17 people provided strong support for Zheng Qinwen's championship journey. More than 200 pre match analysis reports and over 30 post match sports performance analysis reports... During the Paris Olympics, in order to overcome the time difference problem, the data analysis team took turns working in shifts and collaborated to complete data collection, post match analysis, potential opponent analysis, and other tasks, providing comprehensive technological support services for Chinese tennis players. This is one of the typical cases of big data empowering sports training and competition. Cui Yixiong, Associate Professor of the School of Sports Engineering at Beijing Sport University, introduced that relying on big data, Beijing Sport University has independently developed a tennis big data performance platform, established a professional tennis competition database, and become the "smart brain" serving the training and competition of national tennis teams. Wu Wenqiang, Dean of the China Academy of Athletics and Physical Education at Beijing Sport University, also stated that new technology makes training more intuitive and helps to further optimize training. At the training base of the national shooting team, a miniature laser aiming tester will be installed at the lower end of the air rifle muzzle, along with wearable devices such as foot pressure testers and wireless surface electromyography testers. This is a synchronous testing system independently developed by Wu Wenqiang's team for the national shooting team. When the athlete picks up the rifle and starts shooting, the entire shaking trajectory from hitting the target to firing becomes clear and visible, and the changes in plantar pressure and muscle force data are also generated synchronously Wu Wenqiang told reporters that these invisible details of movements are the "golden key" for coaches to discover and solve training problems. During the 3-year preparation training, the Wu Wenqiang team provided data comparison and reports for athlete training, combined with the experience of relevant coaches and scholars, standardized the causes and correction suggestions of technical errors, and integrated them into analysis software, allowing the data to showcase its skills on the field. At this year's Paris Olympics, the Chinese team won a total of 5 gold, 2 silver, and 3 bronze medals in rifle, pistol, and frisbee events, surpassing the number of medals won at the 2008 Beijing Olympics and creating the best performance in shooting events at any Olympic Games. On August 7th, in the men's 61kg weightlifting competition at the Paris Olympics, Chinese athlete Li Fabin successfully defended his title and won China's first gold medal in weightlifting. To achieve excellent results, in addition to the hard training on the training ground, the coaching team also mentioned the role of weightlifting shoes in enhancing abilities. The weightlifting shoes worn by Li Fabin are designed for the foot shape of Chinese athletes, allowing him to maintain higher stability during weightlifting. The weightlifting shoes that accompanied Li Fabin to win the Olympic championship feature a "tripod shaped" carbon plate embedded in the forefoot and a hexagonal anti overturning structure on the heel support surface. As a result, weightlifters have significantly improved their upward lifting force and backward overturning resistance when performing technical movements. Chen Xiaoping, a specially appointed researcher at the Sports Science Research Institute of the General Administration of Sport of China, stated that sports equipment often integrates new material research and design, with fast technological updates and iterations, high technological content, and is also a frontier for sports research and innovation. At the shooting arena of the Paris Olympics, Chinese athlete Liu Yukun won the championship in the men's 50m rifle three position shooting competition. The shooting leather suit he was wearing was a tailor-made 'battle robe'. Rifle shooting leather suits should not only provide athletes with good support and improve stability, but also meet a series of "hard indicators" set by the International Shooting Federation. Previously, due to a lack of technology and materials, the leather clothing and shoes used by the national shooting team were monopolized by foreign brands for a long time. In March 2022, Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology formed an interdisciplinary team to initiate research and development work. In order to meet the standards of the International Shooting Federation, we conducted many experiments and overcame multiple challenges such as material development and pattern design Professor Wang Yueping from the School of Materials Design and Engineering at Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology said that after more than two years of unremitting efforts, the team has finally produced clothing that meets the official competition standards, breaking the monopoly of foreign brands in this industry. At the Paris Olympics, from shooting competition uniforms to functional underwear, and even shooting shoes, the shooting leather clothing products with completely independent intellectual property rights helped Liu Yukun win the gold medal all the way.
