Enhancing
human performance has gained considerable attention in
the last 20 years. Athletics has been the most popular
sector in our society that has studied and searched for
this competitive edge.
However, this search is not isolated to the professional
level. Today, many parents and coaches at the grass roots
level enroll their athletes in a variety of specialized programs
in the quest to improve performance in their respective sport.
These training programs may range from physical conditioning
to sport specific related skills. But, little consideration
is ever given to train an athlete's visual system.
The importance of good vision in the participation and enjoyment
of sport activities cannot be overemphasized. Vision is not
always appreciated by parents, athletes, and coaches because
they do not realize that deficiencies in visual skills will
decrease optimal athletic performance. However, the fact
is, to play any sport well, you have to see well.
Individuals have a misperception that good eyesight equals
good vision. This is not true! Vision is the process a person
has wherein they obtain meaning from what they see. Whatever
the sport, participation involves the eyes feeding information
of the environment to the brain, which then interprets it.
Once this information is processed and a strategy is formulated,
the motor system is activated allowing the body to respond
appropriately.
When the eye messages are inaccurate, incomplete or not at
the correct time, performance will suffer greatly. Vision
is the critical mechanism controlling an athlete's performance.
The Dynavision 2000 meets the needs of this type of evaluation
and training in an all encompassing way. Performance enhancemet
will come in the areas of peripheral awareness, concentration,
reaction time, visual processing, decision-making under rising
levels of stress and speed and span of recognition.
The Dynavison 2000 is a highly effective evaluation and training
device. It is stimulating to train with, inviting the users
to always score higher (which in turn improves their dynamic
skills). It is at the cutting of performance enhancement.
