minimax rowing has been a mainstay of Australian rowing for several years now. Every national squad uses the technology in training, and its even used in world cup/olympic competition.
Recently national teams &/or institutes of Canada, Spain, Japan and New Zealand have also purchased minimax systems to help their teams prepare. This is in addition to Great Britain Rowing who have been using minimax over the last year.
Rowing has traditionally been a bit of a greenfield for technology. Many rowing crews dont even have reliable ways to measure distance, stroke rate or velocity. minimax of course, goes much further, providing detailed 100Hz velocity traces, video synchronisation, real time data and even information on roll, pitch and yaw of the boat. minimax does this without any cabling or impellers. Its easy to install and remove from boats as needed.
Coming developments for minimax rowing include our new CoachView real time interface to allow rowers and coaches to conveniently view data on their iphone.
