4iiii intro’s Precision 3 power meter firmware update V 1.2.0

Canadian sports technology company 4iiii have announced the latest firmware update for its Precision 3, left crank arm based, power meter.

As with (almost) anything bike tech, the obvious source for most when checking out new products, or firmware updates, is Shane Miller, GP Lama. The 4iiii V1.2.0 update is no exception…

Of the update, Phil White, President and CEO of 4iiii, says; “We’re committed to disrupting every part of the cycling experience we touch. With this update, we’ll be able to integrate features powered by our patented 3D power meter system and machine learning without decreasing long battery life and the precision for which 4iiii is known. In addition to these features, we also see this firmware as a way to start to treat power meters as tech platforms for cyclists. Innovations like this will allow us to further unlock a rider’s potential with simplified training tools.“

Key Features of the 1.2.0 Realtime Terrain Auto-Optimizing Firmware update:

• Specifically developed to guarantee optimal performance and unwavering accuracy across any riding surface.
• Uses the accelerometer for exceptional battery life on smooth steady state cruising and automatically switches to the gyroscope on rough terrain, gravel or for the high RPM sprints.
• Improved cadence reliability for buttery smooth power measurement.
• Instantaneous startup and transitional responsiveness for those sprinting from 0 to hero, up to 220 rpm!
• Industry dominating battery life on a coin cell.

With two patents pending for new technologies developed, the PRECISION 3 firmware update 1.2.0 will be available for all PRECISION 3 owners starting March 30, 2023 via the 4iiii app. More details on the specifics of the firmware, testing processes, and future innovations will be hosted on 4iiii.com’s blog page.

For UK retailers, 4iiii, distributed by Pinpoint CE, also offers a UK factory update program, with a fast 5 day turn around, on the upgrade.

Built locally in the UK, the programme, specifically for Shimano non-drive side (NDS) cranks, enabling shops to sell a powerful upgrade package for customers looking to enhance their training and riding experiences.
