The SwimBot Wearable Swimming Coach Gives Feedback On Your Technique

The SwimBot is a high-tech wearable swimming coach that lets you improve your swimming technique using the best technology.

This device is essentially a set of headphones embedded with a whole wide variety of sensors including gyroscopes and accelerometers, a microprocessor and a 1,000 mAh lithium-ion battery. Users start by selecting a training program on the swimming coach's interface. Once they then take to the water, the headphones offer audio cues correcting and guiding technique. Users can review their training sessions on a companion smartphone app. If you head is positioned too high or your body is off-balance, the sensors will immediately detect that and let you know.

The Swimbot is truly a stroke in genius in the manner in which it uses technology to assist swimmers without physically intruding on the swimming process.
