Kitesurf

KITESURF

INTRODUCTION AND MOTIVATION

Installation of the IMU on a table (task T3A): the system has been modified to be included in a box that ensures its tightness, and the first tests in this discipline have been carried out. The Figure shows the sensor pad installed on the kitesurf board during the tests.

DEVELOPED PROTOTYPE

RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS

Validation tests (task T3B): the first field tests have been carried out in a real environment (Viano do Castello, Portugal), and the loss of some communication frames with the mobile phone due to the bluetooth link has been noted in this environment, despite which it has been possible to link it with the corresponding video. Therefore, the necessary tool is available for the analysis of future trials.
