Skates for measuring the interactive forces

Publication

Abstract

As a result of our work we created equipment capable of verifiable, calibrated and validated measurement of the interactive forces exerted on the skate during ice hockey skating. This equipment makes it possible to record two vectors of interactive forces, the loading force and the bending (medio-lateral) force.

The equipment simultaneously calculates the point of force action on the blade of a skate.
