Stemmer Imaging has received an order amounting to €12 million from a customer in the sports and entertainment segment
The Faculty of Sport at the University of Ljubljana, Slovenia, conducted a study aimed at establishing the optimal kinematic parameters of the take-off action of high jumpers. Biomechanical analysis was conducted using two synchronised cameras operating at 50Hz, and one Mikrotron Motion Blitz Cube high-speed camera with a 500Hz frequency
