The STE Artificial Athlete is used to measure the shock absorption (%) and vertical deformation (mm) of sports surfaces. Typically used on athletics tracks and indoor sports halls, the device makes measurements using a load cell and two LVDT displacement transducers when the device mass is dropped onto the surface. Shock Absorption and Deformation are two critical player/surface interaction metrics which have a significant impact on athlete performance and injury risk.
