description Badminton is a sport that combines several different physical aspect. At a professional level, the sport demands excellent fitness criteria namely the player’s aerobic stamina, agility, strength, speed as well as precision.

This system uses a combination of two Kinect, and relevant sensors that are required to capture necessary parameters for badminton analysis such as the motion detection, as well as the acceleration of the player. The training system can be used by the coach and/or biomechanics to analyse the performance of the athletes. The motion detection of the athlete is captured by means of Kinect skeleton tracking algorithm that tracks up to 20 joints of the body including their x-axis, y-axis and z-axis coordinates.
