@ -11,11 +11,11 @@ Open Rowing Monitor is a free and open source performance monitor for rowing mac
It is a Node.js application that runs on a Raspberry Pi and measures the rotation of the rower's flywheel (or similar) to calculate rowing specific metrics, such as power, split time, speed, stroke rate, distance and calories. It can share these metrics for controling games and record these metrics for further analysis.
Open Rowing Monitor should run fine with any rowing machine that uses some kind of damping mechanism, as long as you can add something to measure the speed of the flywheel. It has shown to work well with DIY rowing machines like the [Openergo](https://openergo.webs.com), providing the construction is decent. For a full list of supported rowing machines, you can visit the list of [supported rowers](Supported_Rowers.md). If your machine isn't listed, it just means that you need to [adjust the software settings following the settings adjustment guide](rower_settings.md) yourself. But don't worry, in the [GitHub Discussions](https://github.com/laberning/openrowingmonitor/discussions) there always are friendly people to help you set up your machine and the settings.

## Features
Open Rowing Monitor aims to provide you with metrics directly, connect to watches, apps and games via bluetooth or ANT+ and allow you to export your data to the analysis tool of your choice. These features have been tested intensily, where most features have survived flawlessly over 3 million meters of rowing with different types of rowing machines.

These features have been tested intensily, where most features have survived flawlessly over 3 million meters of rowing with different types of rowing machines. The underlying V1 physics engine has been validated against a Concept2 PM5 in 250 sessions (totalling 1.8 million meters), and results deviate less than 0.05% for every rowing session.
