Tools and data for Concept2 ergometers

BLE utilities, visual experiments, and pace & power data analysis for the RowErg, SkiErg and BikeErg.

Tools

Utilities for the PM5 — for use at your erg, or for building your own applications.

pm5-base

Baseline example of connecting to a Concept2 PM5 monitor.

Visualisations

Visual experiments that respond to your pace, live from the PM5.

WebGL Fluid Simulation

Based on Pavel Dobryakov's fluid sim — responds to every stroke on a rower or SkiErg.

Mr.doob Clouds

Based on Mr.doob's cloudscape — drift slow or fast through the clouds based on your pace.
