Speedo Enters Smart Swim Wearable Market
Speedo has launched SpeedoIQ, a new smart swim tracker designed to provide detailed performance insights. This system is integrated into the company's Vanquisher swim goggles, offering a solution for swimmers looking to monitor their progress.
The SpeedoIQ module is removable and can be transferred between Vanquisher goggles. It is available now, with the goggles and module priced at $189.
Comprehensive Stroke and Performance Analysis
The SpeedoIQ system is capable of analyzing all four swim strokes: freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly. It tracks various metrics including pace, distance, breathing, head position, and turn performance.
Specific sensors within the module analyze head movement in the water, time breaths, and track distance per stroke. This data is then transmitted to an accompanying app for post-swim review.
Competition Approval and Data Access
A notable feature of SpeedoIQ is its approval for use in competition by World Aquatics. This makes it a viable option for competitive athletes.
Unlike some other smart goggles, the SpeedoIQ system does not feature a built-in display. Instead, users access their performance data through the Speedo app after their swim. The system also does not require a subscription.
