use GPS to track your route, show trip distance,
altitude, etc. to give the best fitness
performance data. The A Puls Heart Rate
Wristband can also be paired with the
Smartphone app or A Plus Meter blow-energy
Bluetooth connection.

powermeter. With the multiple models
available, it can be easily installed on
different kinds of bicycles. It uses strain
gauge based torque measuring. With
four measuring bridges measuring force,
which is multiplied by the speed of the
pedals stroke (known as Angular
Velocity) the Power is calculated
(Torque X Angular Velocity = Power).
The SRM PowerMeter is combined with
a heart rate strap, a speed sensor and a
bike computer as the SRM Training
system. This is designed as a complete
system, but the SRM PowerMeter can
also be paired with 3rd party compatible

TMM4 Torque Sensor Technology
The TMM4, patented by IDBike, is a crank
torque sensor which measures how much
pressure / power is being exerted on the
pedal. This sensor is mainly used with e-bikes.
By determining the pressure on the pedals,
the internal e-bike motor will assist whenever
is necessary. The sensor will switch on
whenever the user starts pedalling, since
starting generates a lot of pressure on the
pedals.
Because of its high precision this sensor can
also be applied in power measurement
systems.
IDBike has a complete system with their
sensors, displays and controllers. These are
used in many different e-bike models,
including the Stromer ST2. A Coaster Brake
Switch (CBS) is included in this, which
interrupts the motor when the cyclist pedals
backwards.

Notio Konect
The Notio Konect is the first device that measures your drag coefficient (CdA) in real time, while riding.
Normally only measurable in wind tunnels and such, it uses a pitot tube to measure the CdA. Other
sensors can be connected to the device, adding more data for a complete riding experience .It can
connect to most devices, such as smartphones, smartwatches, mobile platforms and other wearable
devices, using Bluetooth. It can also connect directly to the computer to save, share and further analyse
the data.
Many measurements are correlated and analysed within the device (with the help of extra sensors):
• Bike dynamics sensors:
o Braking
o Steering
o Sway
o Vibration
• Biomechanical sensors:
o Cyclist position
o Joint movement
• Physiological sensors:
o Heartbeat
o Muscle oxygenation
o Muscle acidity
• Environmental sensors:
o Wind direction & strength
o Temperature
o Humidity
o Biometric pressure
• Traditional sensors:
o Speed
o Cadence
o Power
o Shifting
The “pitot tube on SmartBike” idea was
already seen on the 2016 Smart Bike
Prototype of Argon18 at their Eurobike
show. The pitot tube, bicycle computer and other sensors were fully integrated in this Smart Bike
Prototype. Notio Technologies Inc. , working close together with Argon18, developed the Notio Konect,
which can be attached to most bikes.
