I own a Suunto T6 watch. The tech side of it appeals to the nerd in me and is one of major factors in encouraging me to exercise.
Their software frankly is shit. At best it's functional, at worst an exercise in bad design. I'm not saying that I'll do better but it will meet some of my requirements and hopefully those of other peoples.
Suunto have been un-helpful about an official method of interfacing with their product so my efforts use information that I've been able to find online, common sense and some reverse engineering of the binary file formats.
I'm hoping for suggestions fro you, comments to my suggestions and blah blah blah. Stuff I'd like to include;
- Better sort/find. (Show me all the sessions >40 minutes?. What sessions hit TE >4.0?)
- Nicer graphcs. (It's not the 1980's anymore guys, not even in Finland!)
- Better trending. (How is this year better than last year?)
- Attach to a session and display a Google/Microsoft map for a GPS recording.
- Maybe interface to other training sites like "mapmyrun.com"
I've no idea what else, but Suunto don't seem to be all that responsive so what harm can it do? My work is based from STraM 2.1 (2.2 killed my entire PC so I don't know at this stage if that breaks anything).
This is a project that meets my needs and entertains me (sad, eh?). If it benefits anyone else, thats great, and I look forward to suggestions.
