Research Question: Can we use smartphones sensor with developed assisting applications?
Hypothesis: Used sport monitoring application is a useful model to collect data for smartphones.
Exploratory or Descriptive Research?
This is a exploratory research because it tells relationship between smartphones’ sensor and sport monitoring application.
Abstract: The testing and monitoring of elite athletes in their natural training environment is becoming an area of interest to the sporting community. Specialised equipment is cumbersome and influences the training and analysis regimens athletes undertake to improve their performance. Ubiquitous and off-the-shelf versatile smartphones with advanced sensing capabilities can be applied to sports activity monitoring, providing a cost-effective means of widespread performance analysis. This paper briefly outlines the case for using these smartphones in sports monitoring applications, presents a model to collect data generated by these devices and presents the results of real-world usage when applied to cricket.

About Conclusions:
They said that: ”In future research we aim to expand the capabilities of our monitoring software with an improved user interface, processing options and designing a customized iOS application that can further improve our results and give real-time feedback to the user.” So, this analyze the sensor and network characteristic can be developed by them.
