Abstract
The importance for an athlete to control emotion has been widely accepted. However its measurement is still a difficult task. World Archery, an international federation, along with Tabrasco Ltd, wanted to measure the heart rate of their athletes, to help TV viewers understand the inner state of an athlete during main competitions. We present here this adventure, which resulted in having heartbeat measurements during world cup competitions, using a non-invasive technique, embraced by the athletes.
