Multidisciplinary solutions from the playground to the lecture theatre.
Hundreds of universities, schools and colleges worldwide use Fusion Sport technology on a daily basis. For many clients, the SMARTSPEED family of products are the most used pieces of equipment in their inventory, and many clients continue to add systems to their arsenal simply to keep up with the demand.
With education clients in over 20 countries, we have come to understand the challenges you face on a daily basis. Whether a school, college or university, Fusion has a wide range of multidisciplinary solutions to meet your specific needs.
Our solutions are based on a few important rules
Rule 1
Technology must be easy to use, and save you time.
Rule 2
Technology must represent BEST PRACTICE in accuracy and objective measurement.
Rule 3
A good technology is one which ENGAGES students and staff. It is fun and easy to use, and provides a variety of options for new challenges and thought.
Rule 4
Versatility and quality is vital - equipment must be robust enough to survive the playground or sporting field.
Innovate, Create and Motivate
For most of our education clients SMARTSPEED is simply their favourite and most used piece of equipment. Why? Because staff and students simply love using it. SMARTSPEED’s unique range of protocols like cutting drills and pacing provide endless opportunities for new training drills and research projects.
“Get with the Program”
Students of all ages and levels engage with the technology – flashing SMARTSPEED lights, new challenges, and wireless mobile technology bring your sessions to life.
SMARTABASE allows you to take your program to the web, with intuitive interfaces and mobile computing apps that understand and speak the language of today’s students.
Easy to Integrate – Your Teaching Assistant
Many teachers are reluctant to use technology in the teaching environment. How can you possibly be expected to operate a computer, whilst trying to engage and control a room full of students?! And what if something goes wrong? Nobody wants to wind up with egg on their face.
Fusion products put your mind at ease, using mature products that have been shaped by years of experience, leveraging technologies which work FOR you, not against you. SMARTSCAN and SMARTSPEED are a great example. Just set the system up before your lesson, hand out some wrist bands, and let it be your teaching assistant.
Multidisciplinary Versatility
Fusion technologies can be used in many aspects of the educational environment, from the playground to the computer lab, from physiology to motor learning and biomechanics. SMARTSPEED and SMARTABASE will embed the cultures of health, fitness and performance throughout your organisation, and play vital roles in both your intra and extracurricular programs.
