NFC wristbands help swimmers track data
[ad_1]
Swimmers will soon be able to use NFC wristbands to set up personal training regimes and monitor their performance in the pool. Five swimming centres in Israel will pilot the use of wristbands, including a mobile app and dedicated swimming lanes linked to LCD monitors.
Swimmers can get one from their own leisure centreNFCwristband and download an app. Swimmers go into the app to set up a swim schedule, including the length they want to complete, the number of times they want to complete, and the time they want to complete it.
Swimmers enter the pool, touch the wristband with the information kiosk by the pool, and the swimmer will be guided to the designated lane. Once in the water, dedicated channels track various stats about the players.
The pilot was launched by Ledswim and NFC Israel, with CEO Oren Cohen revealing that the product will likely be launched in May.
“The NFC wristband is equipped with an NFC tag containing an NTAG203 chip, and the application can read the UID of the tag,” he said. “Our use of NFC UIDs allows swimmers to effectively connect to apps.”
“So, swimmers get wristbands from the club, and before entering the pool, they need to connect their NFC wristbands to the poolside kiosk, the Sony Xperia Z tablet.”
“The terminal gives the number of lanes of the swimming pool for the swimmers. The swimmer enters the correct lane and touches the reader on the side of the pool to start swimming. The dedicated swimming lane acts as a detector and connects to the LCD monitor on the pool wall, which records the swimmer’s speed. and progress.
“The LCD will act as a timer to display the swimmer’s laps and other information about the swimmer.”
“Currently, the app is not available,” Cohen said. “We are now starting pilots in multiple pools across the country before launching to market.”
