In his dissertation titled Sensor-Driven Examination of Alpine Ski Deflection: Lab and Snow Investigations, Christoph Thorwartl has presented an innovative sensor system that can be integrated directly into skis to precisely measure their movements and flexing behavior while skiing. Unlike existing technologies that are built into ski boots, this system, based on flexible PyzoFlex\u00ae sensors, provides valuable real-time data on skiing technique, performance, and the quality of turns. The developed technology could facilitate real-time feedback systems and personalized ski equipment in the future. As part of the dissertation, an innovative prototype was developed and successfully validated in various test environments, from laboratory experiments to real conditions on the slopes, as part of the COMET project \u201cDiMo\u201d. The developed prototype technology is [&hellip;]"}
