Dear Aquatics Professional:

Swimming Technology Research manufactures hardware and software to analyze performance in aquatic activities, such as swimming, aquatic therapy, water aerobics, and rowing. Our product line includes the Aquanex Hydrodynamic Measurement System, the Torpedo Expert System for Competitive Swimming, and WOW - WorkOutWriter. We also offer testing, research, and consulting services.

Aquanex is a computerized system that provides instantaneous feedback about the forces exerted during aquatic activities. Aquanex can be used to monitor progress in aquatic therapy. In competitive swimming the data can be used to identify force losses that limit performance, track progress in modifying technique, and reinforce positive elements of technique.

Torpedo is a software program that offers many advantages to coaches and swimmers: an automated method for tracking swimmer's accomplishments, a simplified means of identifying factors that limit performance, and an enhanced feedback process with visual and kinesthetic cues. The manual includes suggestions for a technique incentive program that can help make competitive swimming a positive experience.

WOW - WorkOutWriter is a graphical workout designer that can greatly expedite workout development. WOW instantly calculates all relevant time and distance information, and offers many features that make it easy to add variety to workouts.

We also offer customization services for our hardware and software; testing and research services to provide you with documented evidence about the performance and effectiveness of your program or equipment; videotape analysis services with Torpedo reports and color image printouts; swim camp support services; coaching clinics; private swim lessons; and other consulting services.

Thank you for your consideration of our products and services.

Sincerely,

Rod Havriluk, Ph.D.
President
