Ochy Now Offers Overground Back View Gait Analysis
A major leap forward for runners, coaches, medical professionals and especially running specialty stores
Big product news from Ochy: We’re proud to announce the launch of overground back view gait analysis — a new capability that brings even more freedom, realism, and biomechanical depth to how running form is assessed.
With this update, runners can now be analyzed from behind, while running naturally overground, using nothing more than a smartphone. No treadmill. No lab. No compromise.
This isn’t just a new feature. It’s a shift in how gait analysis fits into the real world.
Run anywhere. Get analyzed anywhere.
Running doesn’t happen in a lab — and now, neither does gait analysis.
With overground back view analysis, Ochy works:
- 🌍 Outdoors (track, road, park)
- 🏠 At home
- 👟 In store
- 📱 Using only a smartphone camera
Runners simply film themselves from behind while running naturally, and Ochy’s AI extracts meaningful biomechanical insights from real movement, in real conditions.
No setup friction.
No artificial constraints.
Just running
A major step forward for running retail stores
For running specialty stores, this update is a game changer.
Many stores face the same challenges:
- Limited floor space
- No room for treadmills
- High setup costs
- Complex tools that require expert staff
Overground back view analysis removes those barriers.
What changes for retail?
- Minimal footprint
No treadmill. No fixed installation. Just a clear running lane. - Same biomechanical depth
You still get clinically relevant, data-driven insights — now from a back view perspective. - More confidence for store teams
Staff can base shoe recommendations on real movement data.
The result?
A smoother fitting experience, stronger trust with customers, and better-informed shoe recommendations — even in small retail environments.
A breakthrough for online retailers and e-commerce
This evolution doesn’t stop at physical stores.
For online retailers, overground back view analysis unlocks something that’s been missing for years:
true biomechanical continuity between digital and in-store experiences.
What this enables:
- Runners submit a video directly from home
- Gait data feeds into the same shoe recommendation logic used in store
- The fitting journey becomes consistent across channels
Digital and physical retail finally offer the same gait-driven experience.
Built on real movement data — wherever the runner is.
What this means for runners: freedom
For runners, the benefit is simple — and powerful.
🏃 Freedom to analyze your gait wherever you run
🏃 Insights from a back view, in real conditions
🏃 Better understanding of your movement, without constraints
Whether you’re training outdoors, visiting a store, or buying shoes online, your gait analysis now adapts to you — not the other way around.
This update reflects what we believe at Ochy:
- Gait analysis should be accessible
- Biomechanics should be actionable
- Technology should adapt to real life, not force runners into artificial setups
Supporting overground back view analysis is a proud moment for our team — and a strong step forward for the future of running, retail, and digital fitting.
This is real innovation in motion.
