Movement Pod — piper.tech

Products

One three-camera Movement Pod kiosk. Three products for the floor.

Movement Pod is a modular three-camera in-gym kiosk that runs Meridian skill-level assessments (default Baseline, ~10–15 minutes), Forge lift replay, and — planned for Q4 2026 — Terrain external shape preview. Gym owners get an objective score, focus areas, and one clear recommendation, with replay on re-test.

Hardware

Modular corner, three cameras

Movement Pod is a fixed in-gym kiosk — not a phone app and not a wearable. The commercial unit is a modular corner three-camera kiosk with a touchscreen and on-device scoring. Assessments do not require an internet connection to complete.

  • Modular corner kiosk with three cameras
  • Touchscreen operator display
  • Staff onboarding (webinar or in person)

Service region today: western Pennsylvania and eastern Ohio. Current deployments are local design-partner / pre-production. Onboarding is included: staff training by webinar or in person, plus reasonable sales-script and handoff help. Onsite installation is a local courtesy, not a promised visit or fixed duration. Additional Pods at the same location require a custom founder-issued order.

How it works

Scan. Plan. Train. Re-scan.

  1. 01

    Scan

    Member walks up to the three-camera Pod and completes a guided Meridian protocol (default Baseline, about 10–15 minutes). Overhead squat and the rest of the ladder are coached on-screen.

  2. 02

    Plan

    The Pod returns a Movement Score (on score-emitting protocols), 2–3 focus areas, and one clear program recommendation coaches can use in the debrief.

  3. 03

    Train

    Coaches deliver the recommended block. Between Meridian sessions, Forge gives anytime lift replay at the rack or on the open floor.

  4. 04

    Re-scan

    Re-test the same Meridian protocol in 4–8 weeks. Side-by-side replay shows the member what changed — You vs You.

Use Meridian when

You need a consistent intake or re-test score, focus areas, and a PT recommendation without a coach filming every screen.

What the member gets

Score (when the protocol emits one), named focus areas, recommended next block, and replay on the next assessment.

Forge

Lift replay, anytime

Split-pane lift replay for squat-rack and open-floor work on the same kiosk — start a session anytime, scrub reps, and review form with your coach.

Forge playback reviewEnhanced playback with front/back angles, frame scrubber, and per-rep ROM — authentic ForgePlaybackPage from the marketing fixture demo.

Use Forge when

Someone wants to review squat, deadlift, press, row, pull-up, lunges, or open-floor work without waiting for a Meridian re-test.

Product FAQ

Who is Movement Pod for?
Owner-led, coaching-first gyms that already sell PT. Current deployments are local design-partner installs in western PA and eastern Ohio — not general production availability.
How is Movement Pod different from FMS, MyZone, or a coach's eye?
Objective Meridian skill-level assessments (default Baseline for most walk-ups) instead of subjective visual assessment. Scores movement quality, not fitness level. No per-session cost, comparable equipment spend.
What's included beyond the hardware?
Unlimited assessments, coach talking-point scripts, PT conversion checklist, member take-home kit, ROI worksheet, onboarding, and a 60-day satisfaction return on Option A.
How many cameras does Movement Pod use?
Three. The commercial Movement Pod is a modular corner three-camera kiosk. Meridian, Forge, and (Q4 2026) Terrain external shape preview all run on that same hardware.
What does the assessment measure?
Movement quality, capacity, and control across a skill-level Meridian assessment (default Baseline). We give a Movement Score (0–100) on score-emitting protocols, 2–3 focus areas, and one clear program recommendation.
How long does an assessment take?
About 8–15 minutes at the Pod depending on the protocol (Baseline is ~14 minutes). Add 5–10 minutes for coach debrief and program recommendation.
What protocols does Meridian include?
Five skill levels — Basic, Intermediate, Baseline (Moderate, the default), Advanced, and Elite — plus a Balance & Stability specialty battery. See piper.tech/products#protocols.
Can members compare Movement Scores across skill levels?
No. Progress compares the same protocol over time. Switching levels is a protocol change, not a score jump.
