Summary: | Introduction: One of the most important physical education tasks in school is to learn motor actions. Biomechanical technologies can promote to this process. A school lesson is different from a sports training, so it is necessary keep in mind its specifics. The purpose of the article is to analyse the existing professional biomechanical complexes for their suitability for use in physical education classes. Methods: We studied articles on sports biomechanics and selected 20 professional biomechanical complexes. These complexes can be divided into four technological groups: Optoelectronic Measurement Systems (OMSs), Electromagnetic Measurement Systems (EMSs), Image Processing Systems (IMSs), Inertial Sensory Systems (IMUs). Besides that, we identified 10 crucial categories to estimate opportunity to use biomechanical complexes in school lessons: cost, complexity of setting up and using, assistance need, portability, universality, room volume, construction traumatic, place for using, promptness, volume of data. Thus, each complex was evaluated according to 10 criteria. The biomechanical complex was excluded from further consideration if it got a critical limitation at least one of the criteria. Results: None of the professional biomechanical complexes can be considered suitable for use in physical education classes. As alternative we propose using free biomechanical software and smartphone camera with slow-motion caption.
