Pool-Mate Watch

If you’re an avid swimmer and always want to better your times, then the Pool-Mate watch ought to do the trick. This device comes with a MEMS accelerometer which is capable of detecting the motion of your wrist whenever you make a stroke, and relying on “advanced digital signal processing techniques and software algorithms”, the timepiece is able to keep track of your total number of strokes as well as laps. In addition, it will work just fine with a variety of swimming techniques including the front crawl, the back crawl, the breast stroke and the butterfly, as long as you’re not wading in the kiddy pool and are in pools over 10 meters in length.
