Ein interessantes Beta-Update für die Garmin fenix 6 Serie, die Garmin Enduro und die Garmin MARQ Serie ist da!
Das Beta-Update v19.74 bringt neue Aktivitäten auf die Wearables. In dem Changelog ist zwar "nur" von HIIT, Schneeschuhgehen und Tennis die Rede – es kommen aber noch zahlreiche Fahrradprofile dazu!
Besonders interessant ist die Neuerung bezüglich der Autokalibrierung des Höhenmessers – den neuen Modus "Nightly" muss ich mir noch näher anschauen.
Neuen Aktivitätsprofile:
- eBike
- eMTB
- Cyclocross
- Gravel Bike
- Bike Tour
- Road Bike
- Adventure Race
- Snowshoe
- HIIT
- Tennis
Jedes dieser Aktivitätsprofile ist unterschiedlich konfiguriert (z.B. die Trainingsseiten). Besonders wichtig ist die Differenzierung in Garmin Connect, so wird eine "Snowshoe" Aktivität in Connect als "Schneeschuhlaufen" klassifiziert. Eine neue Fahrradaktivität wie "eMTB" wird aber nur als "Radfahren" eingeordnet – vielleicht wird es in Zukunft für jeden Typus noch eine genaue Kennzeichnung geben?
Interessant wäre es auch zu wissen was alles so unter der Haube passiert: Apple hat erst kürzlich mit watchOS 8 einen speziellen Algorithmus zum Berechnen des aktiven Kalorienverbrauchs beim E-Biken eingeführt … vielleicht gibt es so etwas jetzt auch bei Garmin?
