GT81 connects to your heart-rate monitor over Bluetooth to be able to measure your heart rate and calculate the amount of calories burned and grit points earned based on your gender, age, and weight.
All measurement and calculation happens locally and no data is sent anywhere.
You can access it online or clone this repo and run it locally:
yarn install
yarn run dev
You will need a laptop, tablet, or phone with a modern browser that supports (Web) Bluetooth, which are currently Chrome, Firefox, and Edge on macOS, Windows, and Android. Sadly, Web Bluetooth is not supported on iOS and iPad OS devices, so there's no way to connect.
You will also need a Bluetooth-enabled heart rate monitor, ideally in the form of a chest strap. It does not really matter which one you get as long as it supports BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy). generic Bluetooth HR monitor. You can get a generic brand one on Amazon for approx. 30 EUR (e.g. this one).
Once you've configured your profile, pur your HR monitor on and click on "Connect to device". Pick the device from the list displayed by the browser to pair and connect. The list only includes HR monitors, so the one you see is likely the one you have.
For mac OS users:
💁🏻♀️ If you don't see any devices you might need to allow access to Bluetooth to your browser in System Preferences → Security & Privacy → Privacy → Bluetooth.
