motoDNA Digital Academy
A game changing, world first technology, over 10 years in the making
At the heart of motoDNA is a digital platform accessed through a subscription model. 100% data driven, using a GoPro on your motorbike, our software analyses your riding, grades your skills compared to thousands of other riders, then our algorithms teach you how to level up keeping you safe but still having fun. All this on a gamified rewards-based community platform.
V1 is now live and works in a controlled environment with the full open road version development underway. The rider is required to layout a specific figure 8 course around which they carry out pre-set real world maneuvers called streetSKILLS 101 while collecting data.
The video, including the data, captured by the rider is uploaded into the motoDNA digital platform where purpose-built algorithms measure rider skill levels and then advise riders how to improve, step by step. The results are then displayed through engaging data visualizations showing skill level, provide feedback on areas of focus and then enabling them to pit their results against other riders through leaderboards.
Premium subscribers also gain access to a Virtual Coach. This level of support provides more tailored and detailed feedback on individual rider results.
Development is underway to embed the technology within the motorcycle itself in a similar way to an airline blackbox, drawing upon live rider telematics directly taken from key components of the bike. This data is then processed and anaylsed in real time, with the ability to provide key feedback to the rider in the ‘ride moment’ via ‘heads up display’, audio and haptics or post ride.
Bike & Mates
With motoDNA you can DIY with your own virtual riding coach. Just grab your bike and a bunch of mates for a fun and learning experience.
You also only need one GoPro, so you can share the camera with your mates as well, so everyone can take part. Remember, more skill = more fun and more rewards on our data driven platform.
GoPro HERO
GoPro HERO 7 + offer’s more than just video with great sensors producing awesome data for our motoDNA algorithms.
The action camera must be securely mounted to a static portion of the motorcycle, such as the tank or the rear seat. It cannot be mounted to your body, or any part connected to the steering. With the bike standing upright, the camera should be upright and straight, facing directly forwards.
Riding Area
motoDNA is developing technology for both the street and race-track. Step one is complete with V1, designed to be used in a Figure 8 controlled environment. You will need a safe riding area to practise of at least 60m x 40m to give safe run off for the 35m x 15m Figure 8.
You can quickly mark our the track with a tape measure and chalk or use cones if you wish. For more info head to our track setup page.
Frequently Asked Questions
If you believe you made a mistake with your upload, please contact us and we will remove the uploaded data.
The algorithms have been developed and tested based on data from hundreds of riders and are in a continuous refinement loop. The scores that are given are an accurate representation of your riding behaviour.
Currently, no. We are working on giving you the ability to compare yourself with other activities you have completed.
Data Driven
Developed from thousands of riders at the motoDNA Motorcycle Training, our algorithms measure, grade and train motorcycle riders.
Objective
No more guessing, data sensor fusion combined with our algorithms deeply understand rider behaviour.
Towards Zero
Our urgent and ambitious aim is to empower the motorcycle community to take back control towards zero.
