Hurdler Analysis

Read full description

Hurdle Analyzer is an AI-powered technique analysis app for sprint hurdlers and their coaches. Using Apple's Vision framework, it detects human body pose frame-by-frame from a standard iPhone video, identifying key joint angles at the peak of each hurdle clearance. Each session produces a per-hurdle scorecard covering lead leg extension, trail leg mechanics, torso position, and flight time, with real-world distance measurements and cross-hurdle consistency tracking built in. A full education library covers technique guides, training drills, and biomechanics lessons across 100m/110m, 300m, and 400m hurdles. Athlete profiles track progress over time with trend charts for every key metric. Everything runs on-device — no internet connection required. For coaches: Hurdle Analyzer brings frame-by-frame biomechanical analysis to every practice session. Import a side-on clip of 1–3 hurdles, and the app instantly breaks down each clearance individually — scoring lead knee extension, trail leg fold, torso lean, and flight time on a 0–100 scale per hurdle. Rather than averaging technique across a full race, you get a precise read on exactly which hurdle broke down and why, with a side-by-side comparison showing whether mechanics are improving or deteriorating across the clip. Takeoff distance, landing distance, and clearance margin above the bar are measured automatically when athlete height is entered, turning subjective coaching observations into concrete numbers you can track session to session. For athletes: Stop guessing what's going wrong at the barrier. Hurdle Analyzer uses the same AI pose detection technology used in professional sports analysis, running entirely on your iPhone or iPad — no subscription, no cloud upload, no waiting. Have someone film you going over a hurdle, import the clip, and within seconds you have a scored breakdown of your lead leg snap, trail leg fold, and forward lean at the moment you're over the bar. Every session is saved to your profile so you can see your lead knee angle improving over weeks of training, and every coaching tip is specific to what the camera actually saw — not generic advice.

DrivePhase is a sprint analysis tool. Film any sprint with your phone, get a frame-by-frame breakdown of how you move, and keep your analysis, timing, nutrition, and progress in one place. SPRINT ANALYSIS Record side-on with any recent iPhone. DrivePhase uses pose estimation to map your body through the run and measure what the eye can't catch: joint angles, stride length, ground contact, and the phase transitions across the sprint. Most analyses come back in under a minute. No tripod, no markers, no extra hardware. DRIVEPHASE INTELLIGENCE An AI assistant for your sprinting. Ask about a past 100m start, a hip-extension trend, or last week's session, and it answers from your own uploads and logs. It can also search the web for anything beyond your data. It is a software tool, not a coach, trainer, or medical advisor. PROGRESS DASHBOARD Season bests, trending metrics, and block-over-block comparisons turn every session into a chart you can actually read. BUILT FOR ATHLETES Made for sprinters. Because the analysis works on any sprint clip, jumpers, hurdlers, and any athlete who sprints can use it too. PRIVACY Your video is encrypted in transit and at rest and stays private to your account.
