Exploring the Impact of IT-Enabled Innovations on Athlete Performance: Insights from Rapid Product Development Research
Abstrct
This study explores the revolutionary effects of IT-enabled innovations on athletic performance, utilizing knowledge from the vibrant field of research on fast product development. Sports have embraced a digital revolution that has transformed training, performance analysis, injury prevention, and fan involvement in an era where technology is developing at an unheard-of rate. With wearable technology and immersive virtual worlds, training approaches have undergone a paradigm change that benefits athlete today. These developments stretch the limits of human potential by allowing athletes to fine-tune their performances with unmatched accuracy. Data-driven insights have replaced subjective evaluations in performance analysis. Coaches may use advanced analytics, powered by machine learning, to improve player performance, create strategic game plans, and gain a competitive advantage. Additionally, IT-enabled innovations have changed how players, teams, and spectators interact. The spectator experience is improved with augmented reality overlays, and fan participation on social media and interactive platforms is increased regardless of a fan's location. Although these developments are revolutionary, moral issues are very important. Complex issues that must be resolved include preservation data privacy, maintaining fair competition, and establishing the limits of performance enhancement.

The advent of cinema brought with it its use as a propaganda device with which to transmit ideals and doctrines. As a result, newsreels and cinema documentaries were born with the aim of showing the «most relevant» news of the country and abroad, the former with a shorter duration. In this study, the Spanish NO-DO and «Sucesos Argentinos» are used as primary sources to interpret the images and imaginaries that were projected between 1943 and 1955 on female physical culture. The intention is to understand the official discourse of both political regimes on what Argentinean and Spanish society should be like, especially by questioning those meanings about women. In total, 69 issues of NO-DO and 14 editions of «Sucesos Argentinos» have been found which aim to show female physical culture in this period. The female physical culture shown in both newsreels was aimed at strengthening women’s bodies so that they could carry out their «natural functions» (mother, wife, housewife), as well as highlighting their «inferiority» in relation to men through lower impact activities and the homogenization of bodies through clothing, and the performance of the same exercises in synchrony. And all this in countries with different regimes, but which, in the end, coincided.
