The thesis describes the development of a new product called Sqeed. Sqeed is an accessory for alpine skiers that records data on speed and distance travelled. It consists of an optical sensor that is mounted on the ski and a wristband with a display that is strapped over the sleeve. The display shows actual speed while skiing. Afterwards different data derived on speed and distance can be reviewed. Sqeed can be controlled in full ski-outfit, even with gloves on. The thesis also describes the first steps towards a new business based on Sqeed.
