On-site 3D body scans for endurance events and teams. Spot hydration shifts, swelling, and asymmetry in minutes, so athletes recover smarter and coaches plan better.
Big efforts change bodies in ways tape, scales, and photos miss when fatigue hits hardest. Post-race debriefs rely on feel, not facts, leaving recovery, shoe fit, and training tweaks to guesswork. We capture a 3D baseline and immediate comparison so you see measurable changes, decide quickly, and protect tomorrow's legs.
At the expo, you’re guessing: ankles feel puffy, quads feel cooked, your gait feels “off.” Coaches eyeball posture, med tents juggle triage, and athletes argue shoes and salts. By Monday, memories fade and training logs miss the why. The cost: slower recovery cycles, repeat niggles, and avoidable DNS next start line.
The non-obvious truth: volume and posture shift rapidly under load—and tiny changes matter. Our on-site station builds a precise 3D model in about 90 seconds, then compares pre and post to flag swelling, asymmetry, and stance changes. Picture this: Sarah’s half-marathon shows a 1.8% lower‑leg volume rise and 3.2° foot splay; coach adjusts lacing and sodium, stopping next‑week hotspots before they start.
RaceDay 3D started at a rainy marathon where our founder, an engineer‑coach, watched five athletes hobble into Monday with the same avoidable hotspots. The trigger: tape and photos told nothing precise. We prototyped a portable scanner, tested it at club time trials, and saw swelling patterns plain as day. Early events were messy—tight expo aisles, shaky power, nervous athletes—but the data kept proving useful. Within three months, teams were adjusting laces, socks, and sodium based on numbers, not hunches. We’ve since refined speed, privacy, and reporting so finish lines run smoother and bodies bounce back faster. Our mission is simple: make post‑effort changes visible so smart choices happen while they still matter.
Our booth guides athletes through a simple turn sequence and auto‑captures with minimal repositioning. Clear prompts and a single pass reduce redo rates and finish‑line friction.
Side‑by‑side models quantify segment volumes, angles, and stance shifts. Color maps spotlight swelling and asymmetry, translating measurements into decisions in minutes.
Default alerts trigger at >2.5% left/right deltas for limb volume and stance width. Customize thresholds by sport, distance, and athlete history.
Segment volume changes and splay metrics offer context for fluid strategy and compression use. Medical teams prioritize attention where the data points.
No face capture, local encryption at the edge, and role‑based access protect sensitive information. Athletes control sharing with coaches and sponsors.
Link scans across events to track progress and recurring patterns. Coaches see when a shoe or strength block truly moves the needle.
Mobile‑friendly summaries include key deltas, heatmaps, and plain‑language notes. Export to PDF for med staff and upload to team portals in seconds.
We arrive early, self‑contained, and power‑efficient. Line management and signage keep the flow smooth while sponsors get meaningful engagement.
Filter athletes by risk flags, see deltas at a glance, and log immediate interventions. Everyone works from the same facts, not separate hunches.
Tell us field size, venue layout, and schedule. We confirm logistics within 48 hours and share a simple run‑of‑show. You get sponsor‑ready assets and clear athlete instructions.
Athletes scan at bib pickup or pre‑race within a 10–15 minute window. The booth guides posture for consistency, easing pre‑race nerves with a quick, private flow.
We position near recovery or med to keep transitions short. Most athletes complete post‑race capture in about two minutes, then receive a report link within minutes.
Coaches and med staff see flags immediately and act while athletes are still on‑site. Athletes leave with clear next steps and a shareable summary that reinforces the plan.
Real experiences from people who trust us
“We used RaceDay 3D at both expo and finish. Medical triage prioritized flagged athletes and our response time dropped 23%. Sponsors loved it, but the real win was faster, calmer care.”
“The post‑race foot splay numbers justified lacing changes and sock swaps. Hotspot reports fell 41% over six weeks. It’s finally something athletes understand and act on the same day.”
“My right‑left calf volume delta was 3.1%. I shifted tempo day load and added calf raises. Two races later my late‑miles fade improved by 2.3% on the same course.”
“We no longer debate if swelling is ‘real.’ The color maps and thresholds speed decisions. We saw 17.6% fewer post‑event revisits for the same complaints.”
“Season baselines showed my hip drop improved 2.8°. That validated our strength block. It’s not just cool visuals—our workouts got sharper and fewer niggles popped up.”
Perfect for individuals at participating events. Get pre and post scans with a clear, mobile report.
For clubs up to 20 athletes at one event. Align recovery decisions and log season baselines.
Bring a full station to your event. Great for expos, sponsors, and athlete care.
Everything you need to know
We capture a high‑fidelity 3D surface model and compute segment volumes, left/right deltas, and stance metrics like foot splay and pelvic tilt. We do not capture faces. The goal is to quantify meaningful changes from pre to post that inform recovery and coaching.
Most athletes complete each scan in about 90–120 seconds. Reports typically arrive within 5–8 minutes. We design line flow and signage to keep queues moving even at peak finish times.
Yes. We avoid face capture, encrypt data at the edge, and restrict access by role. Athletes control sharing, can delete data on request, and receive a clear consent flow before any scan. We never sell personal data.
Scales give one global number and photos change with pose and lighting. Our 3D comparison shows where and by how much specific areas changed. That makes decisions about compression, hydration, and shoe fit much more precise.
Form‑fitting race kit works best. Avoid loose layers that hide body contours. Shoes can be on for stance measures or off for foot shape—your call, and we’ll note it to keep comparisons valid.
We built the rig for expos and finish areas. It’s compact, quick to set up, and uses minimal power. Our crew manages lines, and weather‑resistant panels keep scans consistent in variable light and wind.
Events typically see faster triage and higher sponsor engagement. Teams report fewer next‑day cramps and clearer gear decisions. While results vary, many groups report a 10–25% reduction in preventable niggles across a block when using scan‑guided adjustments.
If you coach, direct events, or race regularly, you’ll benefit from objective pre/post data. It might NOT be for you if you dislike data‑driven adjustments, rarely race, or prefer to keep all decisions on feel.
Individual scans start at $79 for a pre/post pair at participating events. Teams and organizers can book packages that include operators, dashboards, and sponsor branding. Every option includes privacy controls and report delivery on-site.
We offer exports (PDF and CSV) and a simple API for roster and results linking. Many teams start with PDF summaries, then adopt bulk exports for season tracking.
