Future Athlete Project

TCS’ Future Athlete Project seeks to create highly accurate, individualized digital twins of people, one step at a time. It’s an innovation showcase that exemplifies TCS’ commitment to revolutionize health care, sports science, and many other industries where digital twins are used such as banking, manufacturing, and travel.

Through the Future Athlete Project, TCS integrates data with three-dimensional digital models to create digital twin hearts. These digital twins replicate the unique physiological characteristics of each person’s heart, empowering individuals with data analysis and insights far beyond what a commercially available wearable can provide.

The Future Athlete Project is a bold step forward in how we use technology to understand and optimize the human experience. From the heart of an Olympian to the boardrooms of multinational corporations, TCS is showing the world how AI and digital twins can drive innovation and improve lives.

Five key takeaways

This year, TCS is helping a diverse group of runners by creating digital twins of their hearts with the goal of helping athletes—from elite competitors like Des Linden to recreational runners—better understand how their bodies perform under various conditions, identify potential health risks, and tailor their training accordingly
By providing insights into heart function, these digital twins can flag potential issues—such as irregular heart rhythms, early signs of fatigue, or other stressors—that might go unnoticed until it’s too late.
For runners, this could mean the difference between finishing a marathon or sidelining a career due to preventable injuries or health risks. For everyday individuals, it promises a future where we can better monitor and manage our own health, leading to longer, healthier lives.
Digital twins, powered by AI, have become increasingly relevant across various industries—from healthcare and insurance to manufacturing and travel— resulting in more efficient operations, better decision-making, and improved outcomes.
TCS’ leadership in this space is a clear signal of the company’s broader mission: to apply the power of AI, data, and digital twin technology to solve real-world problems.
