New York City, NY, USA (November 1, 2013) -- Qaizar Hassonjee, Vice President of Innovations at adidas Wearable Sports Electronics, will be speaker at Golden Networking's Wearable Computing Conference 2013 (http://www.wearable-computing-conference.com), "Revolutionizing the Human Experience Through Next-Generation Technology", to be held in New York City, on November 7.

If you are looking for examples of wearable technology's real-world uses, look no further than professional soccer, where players are wearing sensor-embedded Adidas shirts that can measure performance including heart rate, acceleration and deceleration, speed, and distance, and send the details to coaches. The plan is to bring it to other sports soon. It's all part of a soccer system that was first launched last year called miCoach Elite that has this year been integrated league-wide by Major League Soccer in North America, which uses it in games and during practice, and is also being implemented by other professional soccer teams worldwide, although whether they use it in games or in practices depends on the league.

Mr. Hassonjee was the co-founder and chief development & commercial officer of Textronics Inc., Textronics is an electro-textile technology company that originated from DuPont's textile fiber research effort and was recently acquired by adidas. Previously, Dr. Hassonjee worked with DuPont and Invista™ (formerly DuPont Textiles and Interiors) for over 14 years with assignments in R&D, Sales & Marketing, Sourcing and Management roles.

Dr. Hassonjee has an undergraduate degree in Chemical Engineering from LIT, India and Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from City College, CUNY, NY. He also received his MBA from the University of Delaware. He has written technical papers in major trade publications and is co-inventor of several products and process technologies. He lives with his wife and two sons in Chadds Ford, PA, USA.
