In order to build a resource-conserving and environment-friendly society, advocate a green sports and to be a truly ecologically sustainable development, the carbon fiber composite materials will be applied to the field of sports equipment manufacturing, which is an effective and economic way to protect the environment. This paper focuses on the performance advantages of carbon fiber composite and analyses its application in sports equipment. At the same time, it mainly discusses its application advantages of carbon fiber composite materials in sports equipment and illustrates some application examples, finally, summarizes the research status of carbon fiber composite materials at home and abroad.

Accurately aiming and firing a pistol requires a steady hand. While many devices can steady a shooter’s arm or hand by restricting movement or degrees-of-freedom, few devices actively reduce involuntary tremors while allowing larger voluntary aiming movements. This paper details the design and fabrication of an arm exoskeleton that can actively damp arm tremors while allowing voluntary aiming movements. The device allows five degrees-of-freedom and is very lightweight due to its cable-driven architecture and use of carbon fiber composite materials. Tremorous movement is filtered out from voluntary motion, and an adaptive algorithm provides a tremor-cancelling signal to the cable control motors.
