Re: [niketiming] pedometer algorithm

I have had different results with distance depending on if I run fast or run slow.
 
Export a text file to excel that you have stopped several times on a run. The present software needs a lot of work.
 
Also look at old posts for links to person who developed shoe sensor.
 
I have imported the text file to excel and played what if with data, it looks like data is collected every 10 seconds, but speed is averaged out over a longer period of time.
 
Best thing about it is the graphing of different runs on the same chart, good for determining what one or two or none rest days do for given race pace for the same course.

Subject: [niketiming] pedometer algorithm


Just tried the Triax Elite on a hilly course. It sure seems to
record the distance accurately, but it would be nice to know about
the algorithm it uses for adjusting for stride differences up and
down hills. Anybody know how it works?

Fascinating thesis by Ross Stirling. Thanks much for the reference in your earlier posting. Now what we need is a way of getting the accelerometer data from...

I have also seen large changes when I run fast or slow. When I run below about 8:00 min/mi, the calibration is very linear (+/-2%). However, when I continue...

I've also found the timing to vary greatly with speed. I like your idea of calibrating for speed workouts which makes it conservative for everyday runs. It's...

I may have run into these problems. I did calibrate the watch when I first got it at a local HS track but I think I messed up. I trained for three months...

I agree 100%, Polar also use's the same sensor but is lot more free with letting 3 rd party soft ware use the data. http://www.pccoach.com/ Bob ... From:...
