Unmatched Accuracy: How Absolute Altitude Technology (AAT)
At Absolute Cycling, we’ve achieved something remarkable: our Absolute Altitude Technology (AAT) consistently outperforms all of the biggest names in the industry when it comes to altitude and gradient accuracy. Through rigorous testing against top competitors, we’ve proven that AAT delivers the most precise data—whether you’re tracking altitude gain or monitoring the gradient of a tough climb. Our technology consistently stays within a 1% margin of error, while others show errors of up to 9%.
Why is Accuracy Important?
Picture this: you’re mid-climb, feeling the burn as the gradient increases and the mountain pushes back. In that moment, you want to know exactly how steep the climb is and how high you’ve already ascended. That real-time confirmation motivates you to push harder, to give everything until you reach the summit. At Absolute Cycling, we understand how crucial that information is. That’s why we developed AAT—an advanced technology that uses sensor fusion to provide pinpoint accuracy, even when GPS and barometric signals are weak. With AAT, you’re always in control, knowing exactly what lies ahead.
The Secret Behind AAT: Advanced Sensor Fusion
What sets AAT apart is how we seamlessly combine multiple sensors to achieve unmatched precision. By integrating GPS, a barometer, gyroscope, accelerometer, magnetic compass, and a dynamic bicycle model, we deliver incredibly accurate altitude and gradient data—whether you’re navigating dense forests, mountainous terrain, or areas with limited GPS coverage. This advanced sensor fusion ensures real-time, reliable data, no matter the conditions.
Grade Accuracy: Precision You Can Trust
When tackling steep climbs, precision is key. AAT offers a grade accuracy with just a 1% margin of error, significantly outperforming the competition, which can deviate by up to 4%. With AAT, you always have a clear and accurate understanding of the gradient, allowing you to adjust your effort and pacing accordingly.
Minimal Delay, Maximum Response
Accuracy isn’t just about precision; speed matters too. AAT provides gradient updates with just a 2-second delay, compared to delays of up to 8 seconds in competing systems. This near-instant feedback keeps you in control of your ride at all times, helping you react swiftly to changing terrain.
Altitude Accuracy: Consistency That Matters
AAT maintains an altitude deviation of only 1%, ensuring you get the most reliable data on total ascent and descent. Competing systems often show deviations as high as 9%, but with AAT, you can trust your data, whether you’re tackling a long climb or descending fast.
Developed in Collaboration with Leading Experts
Our breakthrough in altitude and gradient accuracy wasn’t achieved alone. We collaborated with the renowned research institute Flanders Make to push the boundaries of cycling technology. Together, we’ve developed a system that offers unparalleled performance.
The Future of Cycling Performance
At Absolute Cycling, we’re driven by innovation and performance. AAT is a testament to our commitment to delivering the best cycling technology, developed in collaboration with experts and continually improved through rigorous testing. With AAT, you’re equipped with the most accurate data available to enhance your ride, every time.
