ABSTRACT
The use of technical refinement is playing an important role in the process of optimizing training efficiency and improving results of athletes. Therefore, we aim to develop an online monitoring and feedback tool to follow the swimming training using a single waterproofed and wireless motion sensor attached on the swimmers center of body (back). In this paper, as the first step, we investigated the feature quantities to discriminate four swimming styles using the data of a single three-axis accelerometer. We found that there was a possibility that the combination of simple feature quantities could be used to discriminate four swimming styles.
