What is Open Rowing Monitor?

A free and open source performance monitor for rowing machines. It upgrades a rowing machine into a smart trainer that can be used with training applications and games.

Open Rowing Monitor is a Node.js application that runs on a Raspberry Pi and measures the rotation of the rower's flywheel (or similar) to calculate rowing specific metrics, such as power, split time, speed, stroke rate, distance and calories.

It is currently developed and tested with a Sportstech WRX700 water-rower. But it should run fine with any rowing machine that uses some kind of damping mechanism, as long as you can add something to measure the speed of the flywheel. It should also work well with DIY rowing machines like the Openergo.
