StrideIQ: Browser-Based Running Form Analysis Tool for Quick Form Feedback
By
Royce Lu
More flour than flavour. There's a bagel in here, just not much of one.
Summary
StrideIQ is a web-based running form analysis tool that allows users to upload 10-20 second side-view running videos to receive automated feedback on their form. The tool estimates key metrics like cadence, stride length, and ground contact time, while flagging common issues such as overstriding, knee lock, and torso lean. The creator built it as a lightweight alternative to manual frame-by-frame analysis, emphasizing that it's a quick sanity-check tool rather than a replacement for a coach. The current version runs entirely in the browser for privacy, keeping videos on the user's device.
Key quotes
· 5 pulledI built StrideIQ because I kept filming my runs, pausing frame-by-frame, and then second-guessing myself.
It's meant to be a quick 'is this roughly what I think it is?' tool — not a replacement for a coach.
Privacy note: the current version runs in the browser; your video stays on your device.
Upload a 10–20s side-view clip and it highlights a few common issues.
Flags a few patterns: overstride, knee lock, torso lean (rule-based for now).
