COROS launches new POD 2 for next level running data accuracy

Meet the all-new COROS POD 2. A lightweight, water-resistant watch accessory that clips onto your shoe or waistband for next level running data accuracy. With optimized sensor hardware and intuitive software algorithms, the POD 2 measures your run directly from your foot or body movements. It connects to your COROS watch to provide real-time data, so you can always train or race with the right information.

GPS technology is amazing, but it’s not perfect.

• Tall buildings interfere with satellite data
• Pace changes can have up to 10 seconds delay
• Indoor running is just guesswork

The POD 2 solves GPS watch technology's most common problems during running, including data lag, weak signal & satellite disruption. By tracking movement directly from your foot, the POD 2 improves accuracy and pace sensitivity to help you train smarter and more efficiently.

More sensitive instant pace
With the advanced accelerometer in the POD 2, you'll receive data directly from your foot to create the most responsive pace displayed on your watch. The POD 2 removes the up to 10-second delay caused by GPS watches wrist sensors. With the built-in pace alert, your COROS watch paired with the POD 2 ensures you can stay within your targeted pace in nearly real-time, instead of waiting for your data to catch up, even when there is no GPS signal.

More Accurate indoors
With accurate pace detection, the POD 2 measures the exact distance you've run, even when indoors. By plotting the motion of your foot through space on an XYZ plane, the POD 2 automatically calibrates it self to calculate your stride and the distance you've run ona treadmill, or an indoor track. COROS POD 2 will be your perfect training partner for indoor running workouts in winter, or when the weather is bad.

More consistent in the cities
GPS technology can experience interference. Running through tunnels or the first few miles of the Chicago marathon between skyscrapers not only disrupts your watch's pace and distance data, but also creates messy GPS tracks. That's where the POD 2 steps in. With data gathered from various internal sensors, the POD 2 is able to auto-correct GPS disruptions such as pace spikes and drops.Your COROS watch works collaboratively with the POD 2 to improve data consistency during your runs.

More precise on 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 on hilly terrain. With instantaneous data input fromCOROS POD 2, your Effort Pace becomes even more accurate. The POD 2 makes your Effort Pace 5x more responsive than standard GPS, so you can make split-second decisions and better analyze your overall exertion once a workout has ended.

Battery life you can't beat
The POD 2 is equipped with a powerful battery that stays charged for weeks. Coupled with the portable charging dock that supplies up to 5full charges, you'll never have to worry about a low battery.
+Up to 28 hours of continuous running
+Up to 168 hours of total running (with charging dock)

Lightweight and waterproof
Weighing in at only 5.6g, you won't even notice you're wearing the POD 2when training or racing. Whether you're on the roads or in the mountains, the POD 2 can withstand the elements, from below-freezing temperatures to high heat and stays water resistant.

The POD 2 is only compatible with COROS watches.
COROS POD 2 will be available soon at selected RLVNT retailers.
