It tracks speed, g-force (I believe), amplitude (height), and location as well. At least the prototype I saw did that. I believe it also captures temps and other environmental info.

Here's an example:

It helps serious riders get faster, what else do you need to know?

Yep. Aldon likes having his guys use them, and checks out the data at night.

Roger must be finding it beneficial, because he really dislikes having anything extra on the top of the helmet. The only use this in the open stadiums (GPS), and outdoors.

I've seen different versions of the app over time, and it's pretty interesting.

Id love to see the data from their races. Would be pretty neat even if I dont know what any of it means.

They tested them last year, captured boatloads of GPS telemetry relative to the track and the bike..accel, decel, G's, height, distance, etc. Next level shit

GuyB-Does this imply RD is not a fan of GoPros on helmets too?
