BarSpeed turns a LiDAR-equipped iPhone Pro 12+ into a full velocity-based training lab. Track every rep with depth-aware AR, get live velocity cues, and wrap each session with phase-aware insights, highlight-ready recaps, and analytics trusted by coaches. β’ Guided setup gets you lifting fastβpick an exercise, load, and targets, then let BarSpeed calibrate LiDAR + ARKit to your rack. β’ Live overlays surface concentric speed, ROM, time under tension, and adaptive framing cues so you never lose the bar. β’ New phase selector tailors the Lifting Profile analysis to Strength, Power, Maintain, or Recovery goals, while Trend Analysis cards explain what changed (mass, 1RM, power) and what to do next. β’ Highlight metrics now expand to show week/month/year deltas, updated coaching copy, and βActionβ guidance grounded in your current phase. β’ Set Breakdown charts add a filter to isolate concentric, eccentric, or ROM trends per set, plus refined visuals for easier comparisons. β’ Leaderboards, notes, and intensity tags keep context across blocks, and you can still export highlight clips or snapshot cards to share progress with athletes and coaches. β’ Secure data sync, RevenueCat-powered subscriptions, and Firebase Auth (Apple, Google, email) ensure your history follows you everywhere. Whether youβre chasing a PR, monitoring velocity loss, or coaching remotely, BarSpeed delivers lab-grade precision with the convenience of your phone.

Praxis turns any phone video of a movement into a structured biomechanics report β no wearables, no markers, no lab. Film a squat, deadlift, jump, sprint, or sport skill. Praxis reads the movement from the video and returns a clear breakdown: what's working, what to fix, and why β in language matched to who you are. WHAT PRAXIS MEASURES β’ Joint angles and range of motion through the full movement β’ Rep timing, tempo, and velocity β’ Left/right symmetry and compensation patterns β’ Jump metrics β flight time, contact time, reactive strength β’ Sprint and change-of-direction mechanics β’ Coaching that ties each cue to the data behind it BUILT FOR HOW YOU TRAIN β’ Athlete β performance-focused cues and programming direction β’ Coach β per-athlete profiles and roster-ready summaries β’ Clinician β structured, terminology-aware movement observations β’ Everyday β plain-language guidance to move and train better HOW IT WORKS 1.
