Stryd S+ app

[herlas]

@isazi right, having STRYD metrics on S+ screen is fine and people have requested, but IMHO for me I use/check them for post analysis and that I already do on powercenter, rather than on the fly. Do you know if there’s another benefit from the STRYD S+ app? Like i.e. minimizing the 7 sec gap to receive power on our Suunto?

Things like STRYD structured workouts or enabling the new running profiles from the new STRYD sounds too tempting to have on our Suunto watch

Either way, will still be happy to see the integration happen when the STRYD S+ comes out

[isazi]

@herlas I think the advantage for users will be seeing some metrics in real time, and have them also saved in SA for analysis.

I will implement the efficiency S+ app during Christmas holidays just for fun.

@isazi just to clarify, you have an acces to API, but regular users don’t? As there any chance to get an acces if we contact support or sb else? No need for a fancy interface, raw code will do just fine.

[isazi]

@DMytro not sure if the plan is to open access to users, or just third-party companies working with Suunto. I have access to the development environment (like others, also on this forum) mostly for testing, but I can develop apps (I developed few basic ones for fun).

[DMytro]

@isazi no fair!

[taziden]

@DMytro Indeed. I’m starting a public protest in my town! Dev tools for *

[DMytro]

@taziden wait for me, I’m printing a banner.

[isazi]

What can I say is that we started with S+ apps being part of the firmware and only Suunto being able to develop them, to now where they are developed with a VSCode extension available to third-party partners of Suunto. Maybe Suunto will open this to other users at some point, but you know that this requires effort and resources on Suunto’s side, so it may take time.

I dream of the day where there will be a beautiful Neovim extension in Lua. A man can dream

Finally found some time to play with this

I basically added RE as defined here and ECOR as defined here.

[DMytro]

@isazi isn’t one of the metrics redundant? Basically one is the reciprocal of the other.

Dunno, maybe an finds both helpful at the same time and dividing on the fly is inconvenient.

[isazi]

@DMytro they are reciprocal yes, thought about showing only one and storing both but put them both in eventually.

[Egika]

@isazi interesting.
Just some thought:
The RE is speed/power. So far so good. Just as I understand, power is calculated in the watch using speed as an input variable.
It would work with a native power meter (like built in cycle crankarms), but I doubt it makes much sense when power is just a function of watch metrics…

[v.sacre]

@Egika I guess speed isn’t the only variable used to calculate suunto wirst power.

[Egika]

@v-sacre of course. But you still get some kind of self referencing data.

… but it’s not what I expected. It only shows the information of some fields on the screen: of course Power, Leg spring stiffness, Vertical oscillation, Ground contact time, Impact loading rate. What about Air Power and others fields?. No idea. Also, there is no automatic loading of structured workouts or training guides to Suunto App/watch. I think Stryd should treat Suunto users better. Other platforms already have this integration (Intervals, for example). What do you think?

[Wilson75]

@taziden here we are new S+ Stryd

[Wilson75]

@MarioPedraza I believe it’s the first stage of the integration.

[Ivan De Rasis]

@Wilson75 Scusa la mia domanda, ma c’è bisogno del sensore Stryd per i possessori di SV???
