1. DC Rainmaker did some great testings with TreadTracker and other devices and methods:

But Ray does not show us how to calibrate TreadTracker. We eventually can use a Training tracker as a board computer, but we need to enter calibration data, when we use TreadTracker as a foot pod.

2. NPE Runn… Smart Treadmill Sensor is a bit tricky to install:

3. But NPE Runn can be calibrated:

4. Fellnr has a great instruction how to calibrate a treadmill:

the instruction from Fellnr is a very acccurate method, which can be developed further.
Fellnr has also published excellent data about the accuracy of the Stryd foot pod, which is at the level of a scientific paper:

Eventually we can build a device which records our readings from a treadmill in real-time to Home Assistant an InfluxDB.
