IPaT Thursday Think TankFrom performance and assessment analytics solutions to communication platforms, Georgia Tech athletic departments and sports teams are constantly gathering data, searching for efficiency solutions and identifying ways to implement those solutions. This ongoing process is designed to ensure that athletes are equipped for competition in the classroom and on the field. Many teams are also currently using wearables to track performance data without a means to analyze or interpret the data.
