In 2014, Smart clothing embedded with microscopic sensors and wireless networks changed the game for coaches, trainers and players. Now players can wear apparel that gathers sport data and monitors activity that all integrates with tables giving a competitive edge for both team and solo sports. Currently a player can track heart rate, temperature, hydration levels, and more over a wireless network to mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones. Another amazing innovation with smart clothing is the fast drying synthetic fibers that wink moisture away from the body. There are even upgrades to the material to make it water and wind resistant.
