Data generation (very precise) of +physical output, both power and breath gas analysis, to be able to see +metabolic impact of gates and full laps, data can be stored in device, no need +to transfer in real time. The feedback system should be capable of assisting +coaches during gate starting training in providing feedback to the athletes. +You will develop metrics for post activity evaluation of BMX performance that +is useful for coaches. + +Collaboration +============= + +This project is in cooperation with coach Peter Visser and the The Wheely's +Club and Insanity Racing Team.
