Jumping rope is a pretty solitary activity, so it can be a challenge to stay motivated. It also can easily be boring because the movement you make is basically simple repetition. As count number goes up more than hundreds, it is almost impossible to get an accurate count. We decided to create a new type of jumping rope that helps people get motivated and work out easy and effectively.
Smart Rope helps users focus on their work and you can easily manage your records and check the information that shows you are actually getting healthier with its own application.
We believe that jumping rope has clear benefits so we focused on maintain the benefits and turn its weaknesses into strengths by recreating user experience. Embedded LEDs show work out information that helps users concentrate on exercise and get motivated to the users while they are actually using it. The information that recorded in Smart Gym is sharable with SNS
Smart Rope and its own application Smart Gym use the count numbers as raw data and provides all different types of exercise mode. That was the reason why we need to make Smart Rope count accurately. We make Smart Rope with the sensors that count numbers when the ropes rotate exactly 360degree instead of simple vibration sensor from typical automatic counting jump rope. To provide POV effects on the exact spots, there are six sensors. Moreover, the rope is coupled with the rotating parts by 45degree and the rotating parts have two bearings each to help users rotate the rope only with their wrists.
Smart rope is a product that does not exist yet, so we wanted it looks totally different from the usual jumping rope. The rope is coupled with the rotating parts by 45degree to make users rotate it without any movement of arms but only wrists. It also helps sensors count the rotation accurately.
