COROS POD 2

Problem

GPS technology is a great thing. But it has its limitations.

You've probably heard it before - you're in a city surrounded by tall buildings and you're waiting endlessly for a stable GPS signal to start your run. The tall buildings around you are blocking GPS signal reception. This is an objective fact and a limitation of GPS technology. Or you're running indoors in a gym on a treadmill, where there's no GPS signal at all. Or you're doing an important speed workout and a sudden change in pace appears on your watch with a few seconds of delay. These are all scenarios where GPS technology is lagging and not keeping up with you and your efforts.

Solution

COROS POD 2 is the answer. Train more effectively.

COROS POD 2 solves the most common problems with GPS watch technology during running - including data lag, weak signal, or even no GPS signal at all. By tracking movement directly from your foot or body, COROS POD 2 improves the accuracy and sensitivity of pace measurement to allow you to train smarter and more effectively.

Higher sensitivity to tempo changes

Delayed pace readings on your watch? Say goodbye to them.

With the advanced accelerometer in COROS POD 2, you get data directly from the movement of your foot and thus get a much more sensitive measurement of the change in pace. COROS POD 2 eliminates the typical 10-second delay caused by the limitations of GPS sensors in wrist watches. COROS POD 2 ensures that you have information about the current pace displayed on your COROS watch in almost real time. Even during training sessions where there is no GPS signal at all. For example, in the gym or on the oval in an indoor athletic stadium.

Greater consistency of recording in the city

Having trouble with GPS signal between tall buildings? Forget about it and dive into the urban jungle.

Running through tunnels, underpasses, or between tall buildings - these factors contribute significantly to inaccurate distance and pace data, and create chaotic GPS tracks. That's where COROS POD 2 comes in - it can automatically correct for GPS signal disturbances. The COROS GPS watch works with the COROS POD 2 accessory to improve data consistency and accuracy during runs.

Higher accuracy when running indoors

Measure the distance you run. Even if you're running indoors.

Thanks to precise pace detection, COROS POD 2 measures the exact distance covered - even indoors. By recognizing the movement of your foot through space in the XYZ axes, COROS POD 2 automatically calibrates and calculates your stride length and distance covered - for example on a treadmill or on an oval in an indoor athletics stadium. COROS POD 2 will be your perfect training partner for indoor runs - in winter or bad weather.

Greater pace accuracy in hilly terrain

Even more accurate data. Even in challenging hilly terrain.

Not all running terrain is perfectly flat. Effort Pace is a unique COROS metric that tells you how hard you’re actually working when you’re on hilly terrain. With instant data from COROS POD 2, Effort Pace measurement becomes even more accurate. COROS POD 2 makes Effort Pace measurement 5x more sensitive than standard GPS, so you can make split-second decisions and better analyze your overall effort after your workout.

Other metrics measured

Many other measured metrics. To improve the efficiency of your run.

COROS POD 2 also measures other metrics - running stride height (how high you lift your foot off the ground), right-to-left foot contact ratio, time spent in contact with the ground, stride ratio, air temperature. These are all interesting metrics that will help you improve your running technique and efficiency.
