SMART TENDON BOOTS

Students developed ‘Smart Tendon Boots’- tendon boots for elite show jumping horses that can measure the acceleration of a horse landing after a jump, and then use this data to calculate the amount of force that is being exerted on the horse’s legs and whether this amount will be acceptable. It will feed this data back, in real time, to a smart phone/ smart watch, alerting the rider if the horse’s forelegs had experienced an excessive amount of force.

EXELEGRADE
