ABOUT LEOMO TYPE-R
The LEOMO TYPE-R has five small motion sensors that are placed at the sacrum, feet and lower thighs. Each sensor has three axis gyroscopes and accelerometers to capture the rider’s movement to provide a complete numerical data in real time on a head unit display during a ride as well as for post analysis on the website after the training. TYPE-R was specifically designed to help athletes and their coaches to optimize athlete’s posture, performance and efficiency, as well as potential injury avoidance and recovery.
Prior to availability of LEOMO’s technology, motion analysis was conducted using a lab based high end motion tracking systems. LEOMO’s technology offers an advantage of being able to measure motion out in the real world. Athletes are able to wear the sensors during outside training and races, so they are are able to capture data reflecting their actual movement while they ride.
LEOMO's TYPE-R is available for sale to the public in US, priced at $799 through LEOMO's online store (https://www.leomo.io/store). For other regions, LEOMO is targeting release of TYPE-R in 2018.
