Choose the right report

Start with Biomech Profile

Use it when you want the general biomechanical movement base of the athlete.

Use Quality Biomech Profile

Use it when you want to understand how a measured biomechanical quality may be supported or limited by underlying movement factors.

Use Issue Dynamics

Use it when you want general interpreted issues and findings, including their evolution over time.

Use Offense Dynamics

Use it when the report need is about attacking context, initiative, pressure, and offensive movement patterns.

Use Defense Dynamics

Use it when the report need is about defensive response, consistency, and movement under pressure.

Report Modes

Static

Based on one eligible video.

Longitudinal

Requires at least 5 eligible comparable videos across time.

Versus

A comparative mode. Availability depends on the selected report family and analysis context.

Mode availability:
  • Biomech Profile supports Static, Longitudinal, and Versus.
  • Issue Dynamics supports Static and Longitudinal only.
  • Offense Dynamics and Defense Dynamics support Static, Longitudinal, and Contextual Versus.
  • Versus and Contextual Versus use one eligible video and compare the two visible athletes.
  • Quality Biomech Profile is available in Static mode only.

Video quality matters

Every uploaded video must show both fencers, be no longer than 15 seconds, have a minimum resolution of 720p and a minimum frame rate of 30 fps, and be supplied only as an MP4 or MOV file. Poor framing, occlusion, blur, camera instability, or insufficient weapon or body visibility may reduce reliability, produce partial output, or make the video ineligible. Review the Video Recording Guide before uploading.

Common Report Logic

Phenomenon

The measured or interpreted movement pattern identified within the analyzed video context.

Causes

Plausible biomechanical factors that may be associated with the identified pattern.

Effects

How the identified pattern may influence movement expression within the analyzed context.

How to read reports correctly

Reports are AI-assisted analytical software outputs. Objective measurements are presented as measurements; interpreted findings are contextual and may be uncertain. Reports do not provide personalised coaching or training prescriptions, medical or legal advice, official refereeing decisions, rankings, predictions, or guarantees of performance or improvement. They do not replace qualified professional judgment.

Language of report explanations
