Cycling Dynamics ANT+
Hello.
For a long time now, we've been requesting compatibility between our Karoo devices and cycling dynamics data from devices like the Garmin Rally, Garmin Vector, or Favero Assioma.
- POWER PHASE (PP)
- SEATED/STANDING POSITION
- PLATFORM CENTER OFFSET (PCO)
Is there a planned extension that would display this data on our Karoo devices?
Ideally, the data would be saved in a *.fit file so we can analyze it later.

@Yuri Kan has developed an extension called KPedal that displays data on balance, torque effectiveness, and pedaling smoothness, with live feedback on adjustments and misadjustments. It also saves the data for later analysis and includes exercises to help improve pedaling technique.
I spoke with the developer to ask if he could include Garmin cycling dynamics data, but it seems that's not possible because the SDK doesn't allow it.
A shame...

The problem with Karoo is they use the ant plus librarys. These libraries don't have the information you need. It's necessary to connect directly to Ant Device in low level.. and I suppose this is a bit complicated. The only devices I know can acces are garmin devices (because they are the Ant protocol owners...). The problem is they don't update ant libraries because Ant, i think, will be discontinued.
