Usage
How to run an S-MAS assessment and capture a kinogram with AtleetIQ.
Filming the sprint
Both tools start from a phone clip. The shot matters more than the phone:
- Side-on and perpendicular to the lane, camera at about hip height on a tripod.
- Max-velocity zone, not the start. Roughly 25 to 30 m in.
- 120–240 fps if your phone has slow-motion. More frames means you can land on the exact position.
- Film two runs. One each way past the camera. One camera cannot see both legs equally: the far leg is hidden behind the near one. Running both ways gives each leg its own clear view. One run still works; the report will say which leg was further from the camera.
Video never leaves your device. Only the still frames you select are uploaded.
Running an S-MAS
- Pick the athlete. Or add them there and then if they are not on your roster.
- Add your clip(s). One run or two.
- Mark the kinogram positions. Five per leg: toe-off, MVP, late swing, touch-down, mid-stance. Drag to scrub, tap to set.
- Answer 12 checks per leg. Yes/no, with the frame in front of you.
- Read the report. A score out of 12 per limb against Bramah's benchmark bands, which domain carried the most faults, every check, and progress across sessions.
The report describes what was observed. It does not prescribe training. That is your call as the coach.
Capturing a kinogram
If you only want the positions, the Kinogram tool captures the same five per leg and produces a shareable report card, without the 12 checks.
What athletes see
Athletes have their own limited view: a daily check-in, attendance and their streak, their kinograms, and a training log. There is no XP, no badges, no leaderboards.
