Dynastream’s  wireless fitness equipment solutions make gym equipment smarter by leveraging the industry-leading ANT+ Ecosystem.  Module products include the newly announced G.FIT solution as well as FIT1e and FIT2.

The G.FIT Solution

G.FIT is a turnkey dual-protocol ANT/Bluetooth® low energy technology (BLE) solution for wireless fitness equipment, optimized for group and classroom training applications (e.g., leader board applications) with 50+ fitness devices and multiple receivers.  G.FIT is exclusively available on modules from Dynastream Innovations.

G.FIT Meets the Challenges of group fitness

Dynastream Innovations Inc. has been working hard to evolve individual fitness machines to incorporate group fitness capabilities. The G.FIT solution is the result of that evolution, and solves the challenges of group fitness:

• G.FIT works around WiFi interference to ensure large groups of 50+ devices can connect concurrently to a group application (e.g., a leader board).
• G.FIT solves pairing & setup challenges with support for both ANT+ and Bluetooth heart rate monitors.
• G.FIT makes it easy for non-technical users to pair by providing proximity pairing and list pairing features.
• G.FIT solves personal device pairing by re-broadcasting ANT+ or Bluetooth heart rate data and works with the ANT+ FE-C Device Profile and Bluetooth Fitness Machine Service profile (FTMS/FTMP) so that people can record entire workout sessions on their personal devices.
• G.FIT enables technology maintenance with both built-in support for easy serial or wireless updates and the creation of custom device-specific G.FIT applications using the G.FIT Library and SDK.

Integration Options

There are two G.FIT integration options for fitness equipment manufacturers to take advantage of G.FIT capabilities:

1. Connect to the pre-loaded G.FIT Network Processor Application from an existing fitness equipment controller (MCU) via serial API

2. Create a single-controller solution by building a custom fitness equipment controller application incorporating G.FIT features using the G.FIT SDK

Download the G.FIT Library and SDK to learn more about either of these integration options.
