The goal is to evaluate the feasibility of developing a laser system (LiDAR) to objectify dressage scores given by judges during competitions. The equestrian sports industry is in need of an objective way to analyze performance of horse and rider. Most important...
The project’s goal is to design a marker model for the EquInnoLab. MOTION system that is based on Breeding and Biomechanics research. Other than that, conceptually test the model and evaluate the potential of the use of motion analysis in inspections. Having the...
The purpose of the project is to research athlete physiology related to climate and training effort, and to design and demonstrate how a climate chamber can help sport horses adapt to climate differences when travelling to different climates to participate in...
The purpose of this research is to demonstrate whether the EquInnoLab. 2D measurement system is valid and, if necessary, how the validity can be improved. We have developed a 2D marker analysis system which is a technologically functional system. However, we want to...
The goal of the project is to formalise the ‘eye of the master’ through technological innovation, thus making the judgement of performance more transparent and less subjective. Currently, the level and performance of the rider and horse are often judged...
The goal is to research valuable performance indicators for Show Jumping competitions that can be used to feeds into training and preparing for future competitions. We develop a tool that allows us easily to transfer mobile videos - e.g. send by Whatsapp - into data....
The goal of this project is to develop content for an interesting knowledge sharing event on the use of data in the equestrian sports, specifically for Coach 5 (and obviously Coach 6 as well) classified KNHS instructors. A licensed Coach 5 has made the crossover to...
The purpose of this research is to develop a first test protocol for testing the physique of riders on physical capacities needed for horse riding (rider-specific). Aiding in understanding the sport specific physical requirements. At EquInnoLab. we already have...
This is the third project with Limburg Sport Horse Breeding Association's project Fokker zoekt Ruiter - freely translated as Breeder searches Rider. We aim to provide insights and objective guidance for newly formed combinations, guiding the breeder/owner, rider and...
The project aims at delivering a Concept for a Sustainable Building for a Equine Sports Facility, studying the welfare and the norms of keeping horses and a demonstration building that can be used as a model for scaling up. We truly need to redefine the standards of...
The project aims to implement Practoraat as part of the curriculum of the MBO Instructor Horse Sport Education. Regarded as one of the more traditional sports industries, the equestrian industry is trying to catch up with the times. As technology and innovation are...
We wouldn't be an innovation centre if we do not want to continuously challenge the technology that we work with. Throughput times of analysis, access from anywhere in the world with any laptop, and a directly linked and updated database are key wishes. The goal is...
