4. Train Smarter with TritonWear
Collect and track all data simultaneously
We validate our accuracy and reliability by analyzing the
data against tens of thousands of video recorded
sessions – we optimize our algorithms to real-world
values. We are currently more than 4 times more
accurate than the next best competitor and always
getting better!

5. Personalized, unbiased feedback for each athlete
Look at general trends by viewing high level data
grouped at the rep, set and workout levels. Or, drill
down to analyze every length in detail for incremental
adjustments.
Dive into the data
The mobile app displays the activity of all athletes
wearing the units simultaneously. Each athlete’s
information updates in real-time throughout the
workout.

6. Personal profiles increase engagement and motivation
Compare athletes on your team against each other or
against pro athletes from around the world to learn
from the best.
Learn from the pros
Overlay set data from different workouts to pinpoint an
athlete’s improvements. The results will answer
questions such as: is speed increasing while maintaining
stroke count; are turn times faster; is underwater time
increasing?

7. Accuracy
● Tried other products, none
compared in data accuracy
Data Collection
● Being able to focus on swimming,
not stopwatches
Data Structuring
● Being able to search and compare
data over time makes weak points
easy to identify

+ Swimmer + Coach = Key to Success
For Balazs and the masters swimmers at Vasas SC, the key to
success with TritonWear is not simply having the technology.
His teams’ philosophy is the swimmer has to be really into it to
make it worthwhile.
Balazs says “as soon as you have the swimmers interested, it
becomes more valuable. Having only the coach wanting it won’t
work.”
He suggests starting with a smaller profile package, then
upgrading once the swimmer is really invested, so they can
benefit from all the features. This allows both the swimmer
and the coach to ease into the technology, not get
overwhelmed, and really get the best experience and benefit
from it.
Integrating TritonWear into the team
10. Identify the problem
● Backstroke weakness
Look deeper
● Focus on stroke count and rate
● Set targets for each set, dig into data to see if
accomplished, and where to focus if missed
10www.tritonwear.com
What?
Experience
Identify a problem
11. Bad days made obvious
● Metrics made it clear when he had a bad
practice
Focal Area
● Reducing stroke count while maintaining
the same stroke rate is huge: split time is
guaranteed to improve
So What?
Reflection
Analyze the events
11www.tritonwear.com
12. Solution: Iterative approach
1. Set target for set / workout
2. Identify if the target was hit or missed
3. Dig into the reason:
○ Stroke count low?
○ Breath count high?
○ Turn times slow?
○ DPS low?
4. Define new target, with focus on
improving that metric
Now What?
Learning
Take action

13. Results
Result
● Improved backstroke metrics 30-40%
Look deeper
● Improved overall backstroke times
● Improved IM times, because of backstroke
improvements

14. “This system will basically do half of your job, so you can
produce swimmers twice as good in the same amount of time”
● The system gives coaches more time to
impact swimmers’ performance, much
more efficiently
● It’s important to get swimmers interested
in using the system
