46 - Notio Aerometer

3:00 what is the Notio aero sensor and what it does 6:30 gear that’s fast on one rider at their speed is not necessarily fast on you at your speed 8:30 the impact of rider speed on aerodynamic drag 14:30 the inspiration behind the creation of the Notio device 17:15 the evolution from a full integration sensor to an aero meter 20:00 how does it work? 21:00 how does Notio assess rolling resistance drag and mechanical drivetrain drag? User input for both. If precision is important, controlling variables like road conditions, wind, traffic, temperature is key Notio will help analyze data for any and all users 29:15 Benchmark ride / test: ~2km out-and-back, software cleans up the aero data and returns a reliable CdA for the run Great for multiple passes on the same stretch of road on the same day to test equipment or position changes What you can learn from a benchmark ride 39:45 Free / training ride: Useful for assessing sustainability of a tested position Gives you data for the whole ride 43:00 limitations of the device in non-zero (side wind) airflow conditions 53:45 the challenges of interpreting the data and displaying relevant information to the end user in real time 57:30 using machine learning to improve analysis and better predict correct data and weed out errors 1:02:30 the possibility of integrating Notio data with other metrics tools on the market 1:09:00 the case for club / coach use of the device for testing 1:11:00 what’s next for Notio?
