  • Biomechanics and the Olympics

    Dear Subscriber:

    We are Ariel Dynamics Worldwide -- we are a leading innovvator and service
    provider in the fields of Athletics, Biomechanics, and Sports and
    Rehabilitative Medicine. We have several clients who have benefitted from
    our innovations in the field of Biomechanics -- among them NASA (National
    Aeronautics and Space Administration), the U.S. Air Force, America's Cup,
    and IBM Corporation.

    It might be of interest to your readers that we are serving as the official
    research team for biomechanical analysis for the International Track and
    Field Association. In this capacity we are collecting high speed video
    data at the following events: High Jump, Javelin, Sprits, Shotput, and
    Tripple jump,

    This data is being processed almost in real time and will be downloaded to
    our website for anyone in the world to use. Files are in the AVI format
    and can be
    digitized frame by frame. Calibration points are given from known objects
    on the field. We are also porviding hourly updates on the Olympic Games
    with a special emphasis on the scientific aspects of human performance in a
    sports setting. Our website is at http://www.arielnet.com.

    Going about our work in metropolitan Atlanta has been a challenge, an
    adventure, and sometimes a very close call ... we walked by the place where
    the bomb had exploded just 2 minutes before, on our way back from the
    stadium. But after all is said and done, we still find the Games to be a
    very worthwhile experience for ourselves, for our clients and for the
    Olympic movement.

    Like everyone else, we are shocked and saddened by this terrible breech in
    Olympic pease and friendship. But what is closest to our hearts at the
    moment is that we remain active in the games. We are here with our
    clients, we care for their safety, comfort and convenience, and we are
    doing something about it by providing helpful and interesting information
    on an hourly basis.
