Abstract

Dette speciale undersøger, om en smartphone kan bruges til avanceret aktivitetsregistrering i mountainbiking. Med 'avanceret aktivitetsregistrering' menes en detaljeret indsamling af oplysninger om ture og præstationer til brug for træning og analyse. Undersøgelsen sammenligner, hvad en smartphone kan, med et dedikeret apparat udviklet til formålet for at vurdere, om telefonen kan være et praktisk alternativ til løsninger, der kræver integration af eksternt udstyr.

This thesis investigates whether a smartphone can be used for advanced activity tracking in mountain biking. Here, 'advanced activity tracking' means collecting detailed information about rides and performance to support training and analysis. The study compares what a smartphone can do with a device built specifically for this purpose, to assess whether the phone could be a practical alternative to setups that require integrating external hardware.
