Adds a new dimension to your Suunto t6 by measuring running speed and distance. While running, Suunto Foot Pod enables you to measure your speed and distance, as well as heart rate and time, with your Suunto t6. This results in a more complete picture of your training as well as enhanced functionality of your wristop computer and Suunto Training Manager software. Suunto Foot Pod Story Suunto Foot Pod is a lightweight, wireless enhancement for your Suunto t6 that enables you to measure and record speed and distance information from your run. The Suunto Training Manager software can then add speed profiles and graphs for post-training analysis. The Foot Pod attaches securely and easily to your shoe with easy-to-use clips without the need to untie and tie your laces. Once the Foot Pod is paired with your Suunto t6 you can set alarms that alert you during your run if you stray outside, either above or below, the speed limits you have set yourself. Running speed and distance are displayed, as well as automatic lap times and lap distances making it an invaluable tool for interval training. Deeper Understanding Unlike conventional pedometers, Suunto Foot Pod measures each individual stride separately, with two built-in acceleration sensors, ensuring highly accurate speed and distance measurements are displayed throughout your training, even if you vary your stride length. You don't need to provide information on your average stride length as the Foot Pod measures speed and distance by tracking and recreating the movement of your foot through the air. Due to the simple calibration method the Foot Pod adapts to each person's individual running style with the result that distances are measured with 98% accuracy. As each individual stride is measured separately, Suunto Foot Pod does not rely on GPS technology and can therefore be used inside on a running machine as well as outside on the track. The Suunto Foot Pod is simple to calibrate and once paired with your Suunto t6 is ready for use. Information in Action While running, the Suunto Foot Pod provides real-time data to your Suunto t6 about your current speed, distance from the start and lap distances. It is a great asset in distance-based interval training and can automatically record lap times at pre-set distances. Data is sent from the Foot Pod to your Suunto t6 digitally using ANT transmission technology, which eliminates interference from other devices in the vicinity. This means that even when running in the large crowds of a marathon you can be sure that the information you receive is accurate and personal. The Suunto Foot Pod adds a new layer to the functionality of your wristop computer. By combining speed and distance data with physiological data such as heart rate and oxygen consumption you are provided with a much fuller picture of your training experience and can follow the correlation between speed/distance and your body's performance. The heart rate and speed alarms enable you to monitor and adjust your training, while running, so that it best matches your individual training goals. Technical details
