Primary outcomePrimary: Accuracy of the Pitching Detection Algorithm — 98.6 percentage

Summary

The primary objective of this study is to collect motion-capture data on movements common to baseball play in order to develop an algorithm for a wearable device for the prevention and rehabilitation of sports-related overuse injuries. Secondary objectives include evaluating the feasibility of wearing the throwing device during simulated baseball play.
