Lunds University, Parasport Sweden and Blekinge Technology of Institute have colloberate to build a platform for save and healthy parasport. From January to may has a student team build a prototye how this platform would look like and from there has a regional webcompany WIP continued the work. The platform will be released during autumn 2022.
From january to may have 5 different student teams from Industrial Engineering at Blekinge institute of Technology, developed business models, based on a new organisation called K3H. K3H workes with promoting physical and mental health in sociaty. Health & Sports Technology Initiative has worked with the students by inspiration and also acted as experts in the panel at the final presentations!

New resaerch with title “Generating Weekly Training Plans in the Style of a Professional Swimming Coach Using Genetic Algorithms and Random Trees”
Optimal training planning is a combination of art and science, a time-consuming task that requires expert knowledge. As such, it is often exclusively available to top tier athletes. Many athletes outside the elite do not have access or cannot afford to hire a professional coach to help them create their training plans. In this study, we investigate if it is possible to use the historical training logs of elite swimmers to construct detailed weekly training plans similar to how a specific professional coach would have planned. We present a software system based on machine learning and genetic algorithms for generation of detailed weekly training plans based on desired volume, intensity, training frequency, and athlete characteristics. The system schedules training sessions from a library extracted from training plans written by a professional swimming coach. Results show that the proposed system is able to generate highly accurate training plans in terms of training load, types of sessions, and structure, compared to the human coach.
