Playing Games, Sports clothing can help a players performance. Designs for…

- - - - Sports players need to warm up to prepare their bodies for activity and prevent injury. In the excitement of wanting to practise it can be easy to forget or skip warm up so a device that reminds the sports player to warm up and gives them a variety of different and sport appropriate exercises would be useful
      - All sports have a risk of injury associated with them, and most sports have a form of contact in them. Shin pads, helmets and mouth guards can protect athletes from being injured
    - - When injured, sports players often want to continue with their sport although they may risk greater injury in doing so. Supports can allow stabilisation of injured ligaments so that athletes can carry on with their activities
      - Injured athletes need to perform exercises to recover quickly. Along with devices to remind them to do so, specialist equipment like resistance bands and other physio devices can speed up recovery of strength
- - - - Controllers must be a shape that fits the user's hands well and limit pains or cramps
      - Buttons on the controller must be easy to press so it is easy to mash buttons without straining
      - Buttons must be a correct size so that marks aren't left on your hand from holding the button down
    - - Safety features such wrist straps can secure the controller to your person in the event the controller is dropped or let go of when moving or swinging it around
      - If someone were to drop the controller, it would need to be strong enough to sustain the impact
      - Controller could be made of materials (such as rubber or a dense foam) that are softer but also keep the inner, more delicate, components of the controller safe
    - - VR equipment is heavily reliant on sensors that, if damaged, can wildly affect the performance of the gear; therefore, VR equipment needs to be resistant so that if dropped it can survive
      - VR equipment requires special storage as it is more expensive than regular gaming equipment and is a lot bigger.
  - - - Gaming equipment (e.g. controllers, headphones) are awkward shapes and therefore difficult to store
      - Gamers may own many different games and it can be very difficult to keep game disks organised but also stored in a small space due to the size of the game boxes
      - Wires can get tangled and take a long time to untangle
      - Playing video games often is very time consuming and sometimes gamers will get dehydrated as they won't drink due to not having any space to place a beverage
      - Gaming equipment is often left lying around because gamers will think that they are going to play again soon so why bother putting it away in a cupboard just so they can take it out again in 20 minutes
    - - Players want to store items safely in fear of breaking them or scratching them
      - Gaming is expensive and therefore property is required to be kept safe
      - Items left on the floor can be a trip hazard for users and people who live with them, which could injure the person and damage the item. (This can also be applicable to wires strewn across the floor between console and controller)
