Understanding Force Curves and Boat Acceleration
In this post I want to take a look at the relation between “force curves” and boat acceleration. I will also touch on the topic of the mystical drive hump and demonstrate where it comes from. To begin with, let us freshen up on some basic relations between forces, acceleration and speed. When a force is applied to an object, the
Rowing in Motion App 3.0
Improvements to the Apps This release marks the introduction of the Rowing in Motion Solo App. Please see the Solo App announcement for more details. Besides that, we’ve worked on some very interesting updates as well. Changelist Logfile Uploads now show upload progress Improved accuracy stroke detection algorithm when used in conditions with stronger vibrations Improved auto-scaling behavior of
Introducing Rowing in Motion For Teams and Solo
With a new rowing season ahead in the northern hemisphere, we are gearing up for some significant changes in our product lineup. While we are busily working on our upcoming Sensorbox and wireless Sensorgate, we also made some important changes to the Apps and Analytics. Until now we had a single App for Android and iOS that supported
Realtime Rowing Telemetry – Rowing in Motion Sensorbox in Action
Great demonstration for how the system works in real life, the Coach’s view of the data from our Sensorbox. And you can get an impression of the large range that the built-in WiFi supports.
Testing the Rowing in Motion Sensorbox
Testing two Sensorbox prototypes in parallel to verify measurement precision. Data looks pretty good already!
Hardware Status Update and Demo Video
We’ve made quite a bit of progress on our Sensor Hardware! There’s still a few things to do, but see for yourself what we’ve already got.
Designing a Measurement System for Rowing: Boat Acceleration and Movement
In the last part of this series, I discussed the challenges in measuring boat speed and their implications for designing a good boat speed sensor for use in rowing. In this part I want to take a look at what other types of measurements are useful for evaluating rowing performance beyond individual power production and boat speed. Furthermore, I
Designing a Measurement System for Rowing: Boat Speed
It’s been a while since my last post about the upcoming rowing telemetry system that we’re working on, where I talked about the intricacies of measuring individual rower force or power production at the oar. We have actually been very busy building said system in the past few months and that’s why there was little time for blogging 🙂 Measurement of individual performance is very
Rowing in Motion App 2.2.3
[box]This Release is available for download on Google Play immediately and will be available for iOS sometime later this or next week after review by Apple.[/box] Improvements to the Apps Changelist But of course there are also a lot of improvements to the existing App and Analytics. Recording is now enabled by default – you can
