Usage of visual Power Bar in taekwondo venue



Nov 2017-- a visual ‘Power Bar was used in World Taekwondo Grand Prix Series 3.

One such reform was trialled for the first time ever during this week’s World Taekwondo Grand Prix Series 3. During the semi-final and finals a visual ‘Power Bar’ was displayed around the venue to show the spectators the level of force with which an athlete hits his opponent. The power bar fills depending on the strength of the kick or punch, with the strongest strikes filling the bar completely.

“It is like in the video games. “Visually it tells the spectators if the hit is valid but is not at the level that will result in point. We are trying to make the game more entertaining for spectators here in the stadium and also at home. Visual effects will make the game easier to understand for the people who are not experts in taekwondo.” To begin with the power bar will only be used in the venues, but if it proves successful it will be rolled out into broadcast as well.

It is not just the introduction of new technologies that the Committee is looking into but also the development of existing technologies. The PSS has revolutionized the sport but WT are still looking to see how it can be enhanced to eliminate the small number of errors the PSS produces. They are also exploring ways to develop it further.
