What if you could measure an athlete's performance with the simplicity of a stopwatch — but the intelligence of a full sports science lab? That's the vision behind Sensi Fit , a Pittsburgh startup reimagining how athletic data is captured, understood, and applied. At the center of its innovation is a deceptively simple device: a 360-degree sensor mounted on a cone. But don't let the form factor fool you. This system tracks everything from acceleration and reaction time to vertical jumps and change of direction — metrics that traditionally require multiple tools and platforms.
