always doubts whether the induction speed of the code meter is accurate? Or do you practice driving every day but don’t know how much progress it actually has? The emergence of GPS code charts is like the evolution from traditional mobile phones to smart phones. The fun it brings is something that makes people love it once you have used it!
Why do you need GPS?
If you have not been exposed to the GPS code table, some riders may mistakenly associate GPS with navigation. In fact, the GPS code table mainly uses the support of a satellite positioning system to grasp the rider's position information in real time, and then calculate and display the current real speed from the moving distance. Compared with traditional wired and wireless sensors, in addition to directly omitting the sensors and magnets that need to be installed on the wheel set and wheel fork, you can also obtain more accurate vehicle speed data. In addition, since GPS can also record riding routes and information, if combined with maps and related software, it is an important stepping stone for personal sports management and interactive competitions between riders.
Exercise upgrade is more interesting
For all friends who love cycling, what they pursue is nothing more than being able to achieve progress and health through repeated training. At this time, what is needed is more scientific exercise management. As long as the heartbeat belt, cadence sensor and power meter are combined, many GPS watches can display the rider's current heart rate, slewing speed, and even output power. After the ride is over, the route and performance data will be output into fit files and other formats. Through the software developed by the code table or a general mobile APP, the physical fitness changes can be displayed every day or during a period of time, and the progress of each performance can be learned, and the route information such as altitude and slope can be combined with the influence of different environments, and the performance of your performance at climbing ability or high altitude, and even as a reference for arranging speed and physical strength distribution when planning a certain route to challenge.
Drivers who focus on training need to observe the heart rate, rotation speed and pedaling power in the car table at any time as the basis for physical evaluation and training adjustment.
PK cannot lose cycling power
Imagine if you cycling can also play video games, and compare scores and scores with friends in various levels. How exciting it would be! A clever application of GPS code charts in addition to training is that they can share every riding information with friends and even the whole world through computer or mobile software. For example, in addition to the software provided by the code chart, many sports community software Strava, commonly used by runners and riders, can also be used with them. Whenever they see friends update their riding dynamics or achieve the goal of riding a set number of kilometers, they will tell themselves not to be lazy. In addition, you can also challenge popular routes you are interested in through the APP to see which one you are ranked in this level!
Through various software analysis, the GPS code table can not only clearly record the route and performance of each ride, but also compete with riders from all over the world. (Picture source: Bryton)
Select the most suitable car watch for individuals
Although GPS code watches have only become popular in recent years, the products on the market are not as dazzling as traditional code watches, but due to the large price gap and the large number of functional projects, it is often difficult to find out when purchasing. In addition to factors such as price and brand preference, the number of functions and navigation should still be measured based on personal actual needs.
In addition to the functions of rotation speed, power, altitude, slope, temperature, calories, etc., you should also pay attention to the convenience of menu operation and whether the screen is convenient to read during riding. At the same time, the software support that can be used with each GPS code, and the most important after-sales service of 3C products are also the key points that car enthusiasts cannot ignore when choosing.
