4. Performance analysis:
Software and hardware is constantly being developed to enable sophisticated levels of recording and performance analysis.
These systems are available in many schools. Examples include Kandle and Dartfish. These use video recording and playback to enable features such as deja-vu and motion analysis. These enable the performer to track and view their own performance to gain feedback and even be shown with an exemplar.

6. Professional football clubs use ‘Prozone’.
This can analyse a whole game, individual players, sectional analysis (defense, attack etc) and physical analysis (distance run, passes made etc).

7. On a more basic level, digital cameras and video cameras can be used to record and playback performance.
Being able to slow down, rewind, fast forward action adds to the value of analysis. Performers can see what they have done and consider ways to improve.
Digital imagery can be saved and reviewed at a later date.

8. Performance aids:
Fitness monitoring
Devices can monitor heart rate, blood pressure, training zones and give a performer constant readouts and even advice.

9. Hawk eye
This is being used in tennis and cricket. It helps make decisions by tracking the flight and trajectory of the ball.

11. Video officials
Used in sport to check incidents and support decisions with wireless transmission links to officials from their reviewing booths.
