Pennine Theatre, City Campus, Sheffield Hallam University

Learn about the research being carried out at Sheffield Hallam to understand the fundamental mechanics of an athlete's interaction with the equipment they use. The research uses video technology to slow down the action of sportsmen and women so their movements can be analysed. In this Olympic and UEFA European Championship year, the use of technology leads to the inevitable question – when is it considered cheating?

The presentation is suitable to those with an interest either in sport or technology and the physics will be understandable to those in secondary or higher education, or those with a general technical
bias.

Tickets are free and include tea and coffee on arrival followed by wine and nibbles. Places should be booked in advance by e-mailing events@shu.ac.uk or phone 0114 225 4957
