Well well,

I have climbed a lot in the climbing gyms and climbing centres. I had involved in the recent bouldering competition. Have you done climbing these days? If not, DO IT! haha

Now its time to do some SERIOUS climbing on the, well, the instrumented wall. Time to BUCK UP! I need it to be done so I can GRADUATE!! wahaha. Also I can share my project progress here. Or else, seems so plain and boring... haha

Well, well, well, after some delay and time available, I finally come up with the bouldering route which shows the climbing sequences for the Fully Instrumented Climbing Wall.
It takes a while to come up with the bouldering route as there are 8 transducers available to detect the force distribution on the wall. 8 transducers equals to 8 climbing holds.

Route setting on the Fully Instrumented Climbing Wall is the main headache and yet challenging in the initial stage of the Final Year Project.
Right now, the Fully Instrumented Climbing Wall has 8 transducers. Which means I have to set a dyno move (which is pretty easy) and a circuit route (very CHALLENGING) using only 8 transducers each time on the wall. Ops what is transducer? It is a device that can detect force applied on it and record and display the results on the computer via a cable. Simple to understand right? I believe you have got it. haha

New bouldering video posted up on the blog!

The bouldering video takes a while to load and features Chris Sharma bouldering in action!

You can also check it out here.

I love the dyno movement on the last route. Simply amazing! How the hell did Chris Sharma manage to hold on the climbing hold and control his swing??

Ready??? Its All About Leap of Faith!!

Well well well, finally less words and MUCH more pictures on the post regarding the fully instrumented climbing wall. Here you go!

First of all, proudly introduce my Professor in charge of this project, Prof Fuss! Look at his joyous face when the climbing wall was featured in one of the Sports Technology Seminar.

Lets mention about my drive in my Final Year Project on the fully instrumented climbing wall.

The fully instrumented climbing wall was built in NTU biomechanics lab. Two climbers had tried to climb and data were collected, which showed a possibility to begin an analysis using the wall.

It was just like a new land waiting for people to explore it, various experiments could be designed using the climbing wall and the secret of climbing would be reveal someday.

Well I got a copy of my senior thesis on her project on Fully Instrumented Climbing Wall (filled of common speeling mistakes, hahaha).

I am supposed to follow up on the climbing advanced climbing footworks and techniques on the climbing wall.

Oww.. Long delayed overdue post!!! Finally get to post updates about bouldering!!

I am not trying to post any bouldering or climbing trip which I have been recently. Nor posting any familar climbing routes/ moves or sceneries. This post is about Instrumented Climbing Wall!! And what is it all about? Read here to find out more.
