Will the 2 series watch track swim properly if using a kick Board (without using arms to swim)?

I have a friend that is considering a 2 Apple Watch series.  It will systematically use a Board during training for her swim meets.  The new Apple Watch will follow distance and calories correctly even if it does not use his arms while swimming with a surfboard?

I used my series 2 during my bath today for the first time. It does a great job of tracking my laps... freestyle, free with paddles and open palms. But he is not one of my kicks. I threw it only Dolphin on my back (without arms). I swam more than 250 kick 3500yds, it does not register at all. Next time I might try on my stomach, but without a Board of Directors and use my arms a little to breathe.  Overall I was impressed but.

  • Can Apple Watch track a swim in an endless pool

    I work in an endless pool, which is actually a treadmill for swimmers. You will stay in one place and swim your heart while it blows a current against you to keep you in place in the small pool.

    I see that the watch can track laps, which is controlled by setting the distance of your pool so that he knows what is a length is, according to me. I also see that it can follow a free bath, and I guess it's GPS.

    No one knows if she can count the strokes? Or does anyone have an overview if you think it would work to track the swimming event in an endless pool where 1) don't stop and turn around each 'x' distance and 2) you also do not travel any distance to what a GPS is?

    Thanks in advance...

    Apple Watch uses GPS to track your progress in Open water swimming mode and titles towers during swimming in the pool swimming mode. The endless pool does not have to happen. As to count the strokes, I think it's (quite well know for that), but they do not report this information. Because they do not know to what extent you swim by race, they can use that to calculate your distance. However, I can see a future update where they have an Endless Pool mode when you enter the speed of the pool (assuming that you can set as a treadmill).

  • you're wondering what that the autonomy of series Watch 2 using GPS?

    Plans to buy the new series 2 shows that there are now GPS. I wonder what will be the battery life while using the GPS when I am running?

    Hello

    Battery life varies depending on use and other factors.

    During tests, for example, Apple has reached 18 hours of battery life with the next use: 90 time checks, 90 notifications, 45 minutes of usage of the app and a workout of 30 minutes with Apple Watch Bluetooth music playback.

    Y using the application of the training session with and without using the built-in - GPS function examples are available here:

  • The Nike Apple Watch can use bands other than the band of Nike, it comes with

    I am looking to buy a Apple Watch series 2 and I'm not sure if I want the Nike + one or not. So I was wondering if I can use any other group with her other than Nike, with it will come?

    Hello

    Yes - all the bands of Apple Watch, past and present, will suit any Apple Watch of the same size of the case (42mm or 38mm), including Apple Watch Nike +.

  • What is the importance of the point size of track?

    I'm doing the follow-up of the camera. I have two very similar scenes and in one of them the track points are much smaller.

    I assumed it was supposed to represent the distance from the camera, but now I'm not sure.

    You are right. If the point of the track sizes (and relative triangulation targets) seem to fill the screen enough 'also' without a lot of overlap and without being absolutely tiny, it means you've got a good track and that the camera will be placed well enough in terms of focal length. When the track points are tiny or almost impossible to see, your camera will be placed ELSEWHERE far from there and you will probably end upward with a lot of focal distortion in your scene resulting. It is really no great way to get the AE to give you optimal results other than choosing the right type of camera movement and begins with images of good quality with a lot of visible depth and a good amount of movement. You can try to delete points to 'improve' on a track, but rarely have I found this method to produce better tracks. If you do a lot of follow-up camera, I strongly suggest you script "World Transform", which corrects many of the investments of a track weird camera. It allows you to 'fit' your entire scene, so if your track give a camera to Y =-20 000, you can scale the computer down by any percentage you need to get him back in a reasonable range of 1 000 to 2 000. It will make all the necessary corrections to ensure that your device is not set to zoom 15 000 pixels as well.  You can also offset your comp so that your null values or the fire is properly centered and easy to work in different orthogonal views. I find it a valuable tool when you use the tracker to the camera.

    Please note: once you use World Transform to correct your scene, you are no longer able to go back and set null values or the lights of your track of original film, since the positional link has been altered, so keep that in mind.

  • The new Nike watch need a foot pod?

    Is the new Nike watch need a foot pod (sensor) to run inside?

    Hello

    No, the watch does not have a foot pod / sensor of the shoe.

    In the follow-up to the indoor tracks, Apple Watch Nike + uses data from the built-in accelerometer of the watch, which monitors the movement of your arm.

    For the most accurate results, you can calibrate the watch. See the support article linked below for more information and instructions.
