Background
The Athlete app is the only app within the Vector product suite that was built for athletes. As the primary athlete facing app, it offers a range of benefits to your team across different levels of access. The aim of this app was to bring the athlete into the conversation about their own data and start to help them build reference points to what certain values across multiple parameters actually mean.
Athlete
Athlete app is free and included in every OpenField account. This gives all of your athletes access to the app where they will see a snapshot of data for every activity they participate in, where they are wearing a tracking device (S7/X7).
The following parameters are currently available depending on what sport your athletes play:
All Outdoor Sports (excluding Pro baseball users)
- High Speed Distance
- Sprint Distance
- Total Distance
- Max Velocity
- Accelerations
Pro Baseball
- Swing Count (position players only)
- Pitch Count (pitchers only)
- Throw Count (position players & pitchers)
- High Speed Distance
- Sprint Distance
- Max Velocity
Upload Module
Athlete Upload module includes the ability for the data collected during a training session to upload directly to OpenField Cloud. This is especially useful when training or playing away from team facilities and staff as it allows a more comprehensive data set for longitudinal reports on athletes regardless of where they are in the world.
Athletes will see summary data for both activities they have uploaded via the app and activities that were completed with a team.
