“…Sport is the quintessential domain of body feeling and emotional thinking, diametrically opposite to the abstract thinking of mathematics. Despite this, quantitative thinking has long been leaking into sports, starting from early attempts to rationalize and statistically analyze performances in major sporting events: think of the famous Moneyball events of the early '90, which have their roots in E. Cook's work (1). Sports analytics is now becoming a global trend, fueled by success stories in most major sports as well as by the availability of miniaturized and wearable sensors, themselves a byproduct of Moore's law and the popularization of MEMS devices in smartphones (2).…”

We describe the design of a modular sensorized climbing wall for motion analysis in a naturalistic environment. The wall is equipped with force sensors to measure interaction forces between the athlete and the wall, which can be used by experienced instructors, athletes, or therapists, to gain insights into the quality of motion. A specifically designed triaxial load cell is integrated into each hold placement, invisible to the climber, and compatible with standard climbing holds. Data collected through the sensors is sent to an app running on a portable device. The wall can be adapted to different uses. To validate our design, we recorded a repeated climbing activity of eleven climbers with varying degrees of expertise. Analysis of the interaction forces during the exercise demonstrates that the sensor network design can provide valuable information to track and analyze exercise performance changes over time. Here we report the design process as well as the validation and testing of the sensorized climbing wall.
