The measurement of coordinate and conditional capacities during physical exercise, such as the reaction time to an external stimulus, can provide essential information to enhance cognitive and physical skills on performance. This work aims to extend the use of a hand movement detecting device from medical diagnosis purposes to sport environments with the goal to assess and measure the coordinative capacity parameters and inducted effects by specific training programs. Moreover, collected data can be used to identify relationship between investigated parameters and gender and age, to be able to propose psychological and physical interventions to maintain and improve the cognitive and coordinate capacities. Indeed, useful information can generally be achieved after a suitable processing stages, eventually including machine learning algorithms.

Abstract
The measurement of coordinate and conditional capacities during physical exercise, such as the reaction time to an external stimulus, can provide essential information to enhance cognitive and physical skills on performance. This work aims to extend the use of a hand movement detecting device from medical diagnosis purposes to sport environments with the goal to assess and measure the coordinative capacity parameters and inducted effects by specific training programs. Moreover, collected data can be used to identify relationship between investigated parameters and gender and age, to be able to propose psychological and physical interventions to maintain and improve the cognitive and coordinate capacities. Indeed, useful information can generally be achieved after a suitable processing stages, eventually including machine learning algorithms.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
