Market: In collaboration with Zwift, TrainerRoad, Bkool and Kinomap, Tacx has implemented an open communication protocol on its smart exercise bikes. The user can now choose for himself which software he would like to use for his indoor bike training.
The protocol designed for ANT+ allows the Tacx Smart exercise bike to communicate with different software packages. In addition to recording and displaying speed, cadence and power, resistance can also be set using other software. Tacx exercise bikes are the first ANT+ FE-C certified exercise bikes, and the manufacturer already has its sights set on the next step: using its own software with exercise bikes from other brands. The prerequisite for this, however, is that the other manufacturers also implement the ANT+ FE-C protocol.
