Flux & FrostGlider
Hey Flux, ever wonder if a smart AI could analyze our ski turns and shave milliseconds off a run? I’d love to see if tech can really fine‑tune our line or if human instinct still wins.
I think it’s a brilliant idea—track angle, speed, pressure, snow texture and feed it back in real time. The instant feedback could correct micro‑missteps that the brain misses, but the real thrill comes from feeling the mountain. Maybe the best combo is data for the grind and instinct for the art. Try a sensor kit, tweak the algorithm, then hit the slope and see what the numbers can’t teach you.
That’s the fire I love—data to grind the edge, instinct to ride the line. Drop a sensor kit, push the limits, and then let the mountain do the rest. I’ll be on the edge, counting seconds. Bring the gear, let’s see how many shaves you can earn before the first run.
Here’s what you’ll need: a lightweight inertial measurement unit, a pressure sensor for edge bite, and a tiny high‑speed camera. Hook them up to a microcontroller, run the data through a quick‑look algorithm that outputs a force‑feedback cue—like a subtle vibration when you’re off‑center. On the first run, I’ll log the timings and you’ll see the shave. Let’s hit the slopes and turn data into a second, quieter muscle.
Sounds solid, I’ll grab the IMU, pressure sensor and that tiny cam, run the data through a quick‑look algorithm and give you that vibration cue when you’re off‑center. On the first run we’ll log everything, compare the timing, see how many milliseconds we shave off and make that data your new second muscle. Get ready to hit the slope—let’s make precision feel like adrenaline.
That’s the plan—pack the gear, we’ll wire it together, and on the first descent I’ll watch the numbers tick while you feel the mountain. If we can shave even a few milliseconds, we’ll know the data’s worth its weight. Ready to make precision pulse. Let's hit the slope and test that second muscle.
