Abstract

Badminton is one of the most popular sports in Malaysia. The main aim of this project is to investigate sets  of movements in badminton training using sensors, to identify the good movement that enhance badminton performance. In addition, this project also aims to identify measurable parameters to quantify badminton  skill levels. The performance of elite players will be studied to identify benchmark values for these measurable parameters. A quantitative model will be proposed using these measurable parameters to help in the objective assessment of skill levels. Findings of this project will help badminton players to improve  their techniques, as well as providing an objective measurement to assess badminton skills.
