Simple Setup
From stick to screen in 60 seconds
No subscriptions to configure, no straps or clips. Slide in the pod, pair, and play.
01
Assemble & Attach
- The LaxPod is a thumb-sized module that slides into the butt end of your lacrosse stick — no modification needed.
- Power on with a single button press. The LED flashes blue when it's advertising over BLE.
- Charges via USB-C; indicator turns solid green when full.
02
Pair the App
- Open the LaxForge app and navigate to the Sensor tab.
- Tap Scan — the pod appears in the device list within seconds.
- Tap Pair. The app subscribes to the pod's GATT characteristics and live data streaming begins immediately.
03
Start a Session
- Choose Player (offensive) or Goalie (defensive) mode.
- Hit Start Session. The pod streams 9-DOF motion data packets at 50Hz over BLE.
- The Madgwick AHRS filter on the pod fuses accel + gyro + mag into quaternion frames before transmission — keeping latency under 50ms.
04
Take Shots
- Each shot triggers a detection event on the phone using the acceleration spike profile.
- The app captures the full shot arc — from backswing through release — and derives power (mph), wrist snap (ms), and release angle (°).
- Optionally record with the camera to overlay sensor data on video.
05
Get Instant Feedback
- AI score appears on screen within 1–2 seconds of release.
- Tap any shot to see the full coaching breakdown: balance, release point, follow-through, body rotation.
- Zone is marked on the 3×3 goal grid — manually or via computer vision analysis of the camera feed.
06
Review & Improve
- After the session, the summary screen shows aggregate stats: shots, avg power, accuracy, AI score.
- Scrub through the 3D replay to see each shot's motion path reconstructed from quaternion data.
- Stats sync to Firebase and are immediately available on the web dashboard.
