Welcome!

Where cutting-edge technology meets the art of dinghy sail racing—crafted by a passionate solo developer.

Data Driven Sailing is a personal project born from my Master’s thesis, designed to empower sailors and coaches with real-time feedback and in-depth post-session analysis. As the sole creator, I’ve combined affordable, high-precision hardware with innovative data processing to transform raw sensor information into actionable insights. This system not only refines training techniques but also simplifies debriefing sessions, allowing for quick, informed tactical decisions when every second counts.

My Vision Imagine capturing every detail on the water—from subtle wind shifts to precise boat movements. With custom-built sensors, 3D printed enclosures, and a centralized hub, Data Driven Sailing is engineered to deliver synchronized data that’s both comprehensive and immediately useful. By embracing open-source principles, I aim to make advanced sailing analytics accessible, so others can build upon and adapt this technology for their own needs.

How It Works

• Integrated Hardware: Using devices like the BoatTracker and BuoyTracker, the system collects high-quality sensor data and precise GPS timestamps, ensuring every moment is accurately logged.

• Real-Time & Post-Session Analysis: Live dashboards offer immediate performance insights, while detailed CSV exports integrate seamlessly with analytical tools like Njord Analytics for thorough review.

• Efficient Data Management: Automated synchronization and data compression mean that your training sessions are backed up with minimal hassle, ready for fast, effective debriefs.

Join the Journey Whether you’re a competitive sailor or a dedicated coach, Data Driven Sailing is your invitation to experience the future of dinghy racing. Explore the technology, learn from the open-source community, and see how a single developer’s passion can revolutionize sailing performance.

Set your course for smarter sailing—the journey is just beginning.
