Be interesting to know what the margin of error is in the GPS system (which I believe is what they are using in the helmets?), I think the typical consumer GPS is something like +/- 3 meters.
Wow. Impressive for Duke at his size. I am really excited for him if he comes back where he was before the latest injury.
Yep still a great tool for analytical work and not doubting the numbers, just interested in the technology and how it works. Cool stuff.it depends on if they are using assisted GPS with triangulation etc..
but if they are all using the same system the errors would be similar across the board

Awesome, thanks for the info!Weighing in since this is my professional area of expertise... The system they use is a differential GPS based system and the velocity accuracy on those systems is typically on the order of <2 cm/s (<0.04 mph). So, the margin of error is probably insignificantly small and those numbers are pretty dead on, which to me just makes it cooler.
Love the speed of our backup CB's. One more year and they should be ready to takeover (if not exceed) BBC and Murray.

Myrick is incredible! I took the fastest 27 times (all I could see) and found that the mean velocity=20.72 mph; standard deviation = .563. Myrick is about 2 standard deviations faster than the next fastest guy, he's off the freaking charts!! I know that there are issues with my stats, but his speed is blinding.
Comparison to last summer's "final." Looks like most of the guys aren't back to top speed yet (and winter weight/strength gains may sap a little speed??) which makes Myrick's big leap even more impressive. I'll be curious to see what this looks like when the new guys get in there.

They ran against the wind this year.
They practice uphill now. Coach Kill is an innovator.

Are there special glasses you can wear to watch him run or is it just an unsafe act to watch?
