The McNeese State University Football program recently introduced the exclusive QuickTake Sports digital check-in kiosk. This cutting-edge technology platform, the first of its kind, features vital signs measurements using biometrics sensors, facial recognition, and a digital touchscreen, revolutionizing McNeese athletes’ training and performance communications.
The QuickTake Sports kiosk is designed to help athletes achieve peak performance through precision health data tracking. Athletes simply check in by standing in front of the kiosk, which then measures their vital signs and mood. It then provides motivational messages, allowing athletes to focus on their health goals in a new, innovative way.
“We are thrilled to be launching the first-ever QuickTake Sports kiosk pilot for the McNeese State University Football program,” said Heath Schroyer, director of athletics. “Innovative systems like QuickTake are an absolute game-changer for our sports medicine team and sports performance team. QuickTake data helps our student athletes perform at their highest level.”
Hunter Martin, associate athletic director for sports medicine, said his team is using QuickTake Sports with their players every day. “This is an incredibly innovative tool that allows our trainers to easily obtain important vital signs to assess the health and wellness needs of our student athletes. It’s helping us do our job more efficiently and effectively.”
“As a proud alumnus of McNeese State University, a long-time team physician and a passionate advocate for athlete health, I am thrilled to see the Cowboy football program using our QuickTake Sports kiosk,” said Dr. John Noble, Jr., co-founder and chief medical officer at QuickTake Health. “This platform empowers our athletes and athletic trainers with real-time health insights, fostering a culture of excellence and well-being. At QuickTake Health, we believe that the best defense is a good offense, and with this cutting-edge technology, our Cowboys will be equipped to tackle their health goals head-on.” Dr. Noble and co-founder Rand Ragusa, also a McNeese alumnus, chose to partner with McNeese first before all other institutions because of their love for the university.
“This is another example of the high quality, innovative thinking of our McNeese family of graduates,” said Dr. Wade Rousse, McNeese president. “We are so proud of our alumni and these two gentlemen represent Poke Pride in a way that is difficult to explain. It’s humbling and rewarding.”
The QuickTake Sports kiosk is not just a new addition, but a testament to McNeese State University Football program’s unwavering commitment to providing its athletes with the best possible resources to succeed. With the launch of the QuickTake Sports kiosk, McNeese athletes have access to the most advanced health monitoring technology available, ensuring their well-being and success on and off the field.
