SlackCell

Project Status: In Development

Designed for highline and slackline athletes, this rechargeable, battery-powered device amplifies and rapidly samples data from a load cell which measures an applied tension force. After capturing data, the SlackCell can conveniently transmit the data to a laptop or phone as a wifi access point or via bluetooth. This device allows athletes to enhance their safety and satiate their curiosity by knowing the tension forces being applied to their slacklines over time. This device is meant to provide a simpler and cheaper alternative to the prohibitively expensive LineScale 3.
