Indian startup ProjectPOLE is now offering feedback to athletes with its Tracky motion-tracking sportswear. Tracky consists of a compression top and pants, upon which are mounted 11 9-axis accelerometers, a heart rate sensor and a temperature sensor. Those are all connected to a strap embedded in the shirt. As the user performs their given activity, data from the sensors is stored on the hub. It's also transmitted in real time via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi to their iOS or Android device. An app n that device processes the data, allowing the user to monitor and track various parameters of their performance. If the user's biomechanics, form or posture aren't right, it will let them know. It also helps them maintain an optimum heart rate while traning, warning them to stop and rest when they're in danger of overheating, along with setting fitness/performance goals and sharing their progress online.
