The convergence of semiconductor technology, physiology, and predictive health analytics from wearable devices has advanced its clinical and translational utility for sports. The detection and subsequent application of metrics pertinent to and indicative of the physical performance, physiological status, biochemical composition, and mental alertness of the athlete has been shown to reduce the risk of injuries and improve performance and has enabled the development of athlete-centered protocols and treatment plans by team physicians and trainers. Our discussions in this review include commercially available devices, as well as those described in scientific literature to provide an understanding of wearable sensors for sports medicine. The primary objective of this paper is to provide a comprehensive review of the applications of wearable technology for assessing the biomechanical and physiological parameters of the athlete. A secondary objective of this paper is to identify collaborative research opportunities among academic research groups, sports medicine health clinics, and sports team performance programs to further the utility of this technology to assist in the return-to-play for athletes across various sporting domains. A companion paper discusses the use of wearables to monitor the biochemical profile and mental acuity of the athlete.

可穿戴设备的半导体技术、生理学和预测健康分析的融合提高了其在运动中的临床和转化效用。与运动员的身体表现、生理状态、生化成分和精神警觉性相关和指示的指标的检测和随后的应用已被证明可以降低受伤风险并提高表现，并促进以运动员为中心的协议的开发以及队医和教练的治疗计划。我们在这篇综述中的讨论包括市售设备以及科学文献中描述的设备，以帮助人们了解运动医学的可穿戴传感器。本文的主要目的是对可穿戴技术在评估运动员生物力学和生理参数方面的应用进行全面综述。本文的第二个目标是确定学术研究小组、运动医学健康诊所和运动队表现项目之间的合作研究机会，以进一步利用该技术来帮助各个体育领域的运动员重返赛场。配套论文讨论了使用可穿戴设备来监测运动员的生化特征和精神敏锐度。
