As I was standing in line to a restaurant I noticed how my feet adjust even though they aren’t moving in any particular direction. Thinking through how I would recreate that for Standable, I realized that it is the core reason why Standable doesn’t work so well when standing still.

When standing still (with a small stance) the legs/feet will sometimes do some weird things. I knew of this issue for a long time but never exactly knew what the solution would be until standing in line last night.

Now the solution isn’t fully figured out (I would have to do some more testing and research) so it would add at least a couple weeks to the launch of V1.0.

This is a great example of my urge to fix every little thing I notice about the current state of SFBE, but I know that I need to just get V1.0 out the door despite it not being perfect.

I guess the takeaway from this is that you guys can be excited not about the current state of SFBE, but the future updates that will make it so much better. I believe SFBE can get SO much more accurate, maybe even to the point of rivaling traditional FBT (but no promises 😉)

Thank you for coming to my TED-Talk.

Do you think we could add some data like one of those new self tracking device that HTC announced? If i had one on the left foot could it complement the missing data for the right foot?

Yes. Future updates I would love to make it modular where it would detect what trackers you already have and fill in the gaps. With the accuracy that I’ve been able to get with 3 points. I can’t imagine I couldn’t get much better tracking with even just one more point of reference.
