Abstract

Introduction. The integration of modern technologies is crucial for enhancing elite athlete training,offering cutting-edge tools for performance optimization. The widespread use oftechnology in elite sports, including video assistant referees and wearable sensors,providing real-time biomechanical oversight, challenges related to ethics, data protection,and regulatory frameworks require resolution for widespread implementation.This study aims to conduct a thorough assessment of the integration of modern technologies,specifically examining their efficacy in optimizing the training performance andcompetitive outcomes of elite athletes in sports games.Material and Methods. Bibliometric techniques and expert evaluations were used to determine themodern trends in innovative technologies to improve the effectiveness of elite athletes`preparation. A thorough biomechanical analysis utilizing diverse methods wasperformed on 41 elite athletes in sports games.Results. The examination of sports science literature and expert assessments unveils predominanttrends in the utilization of innovative technologies in elite sports, with a particularemphasis on the widespread adoption of wearable technology, biomechanics andmotion analysis, and recovery and regeneration techniques. The outcomes fromOpenCap biomechanical analysis show a high correlation (r=0.99, α = 0.05) between thesymmetry of knee joint angles during barbell squats by elite athletes, confirming theefficacy of real-time monitoring exercise techniques. The Romberg coefficient of 194.5%± 2.47 indicates a notable degree of stability among elite athletes.Conclusions. This study enhances the comprehension of innovative technologies, exemplified byOpenCap biomechanical analysis, and their effectiveness in optimizing the trainingperformance and competitive outcomes of elite athletes in sports games. The findingsprovide valuable insights for coaches, sports scientists, and researchers aiming tooptimize training methods and elevate athlete performance in sports games.
