    In the field of Sports, sprinting is the term used for introducing running over a short distance in a limited time. To date, a method to identify whether sprinters are getting enough speed during the accelerated period is not available so far. This paper proposes a smart agent to recognize the technical precision and performance of a sprinter using wireless hardware devices and a software solution. Smart shoe, track sensor, arm motion detection bracelet are the devices used to collect data from a sprinter. After required data collecting is complete the based web application provides feedback to the sprinter to improve sprinting techniques. This modern technology based system reduces human errors and workload of a trainer and would be highly beneficial for the sports community including coaches and sprinters as it could be accessed through mobile phones. The results of the study show the visualization of sprinter data effectively and an analysis on the obtained data regarding the performance.
