Indian Athletes Train on Smart Track at SAI Bengaluru Ahead of Asian Games 2026

Indian Athletes are using a newly installed smart track at the Sports Authority of India (SAI) centre in Bengaluru as part of their preparation for the upcoming Asian Games 2026, focusing on sprint and middle‑distance events.

SAI Bengaluru facility has equipped the oval with pressure sensors, timing modules and wireless transmitters that relay real‑time speed, stride length and impact data to coaches through a tablet dashboard, enabling immediate performance analysis.

Coaches report that the instant feedback allows athletes to adjust technique during each lap, helping them target personal bests and meet the qualifying standards set by the Indian Olympic Association for the Asian Games roster.

Asian Games Committee expects the data‑driven training to raise India’s medal chances in track events, noting that similar smart‑track programs have contributed to improved sprint and middle‑distance results for other competing nations.
