Over a past few years, technology is constructing the way humans live. With the rapid growth towards Internet of Things (IOT) and other connected services, companies are investigating the ways to enhance current living conditions. There are several devices that are launched in the market to help people to increase flexibility and most of all, to see beyond what is possible. It is helping us reinforce ourselves in our day to day activities. Even in sports, thanks to the latest technological developments, most people’s lives have been enhanced and simplified. Advances in technology has a huge impact on sports which includes- analysis of sport performance, improvements in design of sports equipment and facilitate coaches to provide feedback on players’ performance. Sports equipment continually undergoing research and development to improve sporting performance ensuring a superior game and positive results. Significant technology such as smart gear is popular among athletes to analyse their performance. The equipment usually includes sensors controlled by microcontrollers. The main contribution of this thesis is to investigate the possibilities of a suitable sports equipment to detect and calculate speed of a fast-moving object and providing the drawbacks while using different sensors. In this thesis, IR/Laser sensors, along with a Doppler radar module were tested to put forward a best suitable method to calculate the speed of a fast-moving object and transmit the data over a network.
