A system for providing information to a rower of a boat comprising:
- (a) a display unit adapted to be coupled to the boat for displaying information to the rower;
- and
- (b) an imaging device in communication with the display unit, wherein the imaging device is adapted to be coupled to the boat for capturing images and relaying the captured images to the display unit for display to the rower.
A system for providing information to a rower of a boat comprising:
- (a) an interface for removably receiving a display unit adapted to display rowing information;
- and
- (b) an imaging device adapted to be communicatively coupled to the display unit for capturing images and relaying the captured images to the display unit for display.
A system for providing information to a rower of a boat comprising:
- (a) a display unit for displaying information;
- (b) an imaging device for capturing images and sending the captured images to the display unit for display to the rower;
- (c) a motion system for determining at least one parameter descriptive of a motion of the boat and sending the determined parameter to the display unit for display to the rower;
- and
- (d) a sensor for sensing at least one parameter from a group consisting of a body function of the rower and a force applied by the rower upon an oar, and sending data indicative of the sensed parameter to the display unit for display.
