Long distance runners need to strike a delicate balance to win. If they go to slow, they fall behind. If they go to fast, they lose precious energy. Nicholas Gorsich, co-founder of Stridelane explains…
Justin BradyHostFor an indoor track, which is 200 meters, there would just be eight strands of 25 lights, and they're all exactly spaced a meter apart.
um there might need to be some uh calibration on the curves just because you know there's a distance difference there um but yeah outside of that you you just lay these strings down and they they each connect so there would be you know 16 connection points um and that's we only need one power source to power the whole uh system so it is a very simple setup
Are they staked in outside? Like, is there a permanent version or they just sit there on the ground?
It's something we might look into down the road, but currently they just sit on the ground.
Each module might be a few pounds because it's a PCB with the lights, and they're very bright, obviously, because they have to be seen in the day.
And then there's an epoxy molding around them just to protect them from all elements, be super durable.
And then outside of even that is like a polycarbonate shell so that, you know, if anyone were to step on it, it's not going to do any damage.
I mean, this makes sense because people in every sport, every outdoor sport, um, people are setting up their equipment every time
um, with the, the cult collegiate level, they have some exceptions of course, but no one is these days has like a different stadium for each sport.
It's, you know, football, track, soccer, it's all happening on the same field and they have to reconfigure that field anyway.
So for the track, um, the track folks, this would be something they'd re they'd roll it out and Yep.
