punch force measuring tool

Only if your chi is really really strong

I don't know about that....but I DID sleep at a Holiday Inn Express!

The so-called punch force is mathematically proportional to the weight (mass) and square of speed (velocity) of the punching "tool" (Energy = m*(v*v)/2). This explains the importance and priority of the punch speed development.
I found very simple software the punch speed meter.
It's very simple in use Windows application and can both quickly and precisely measure the speed of the fist. http://knockouter.com
To use it you need in PC (or notebook), cheap microphone, any computer speaker (I tested it with build into my notebook, it works Ok).

Wii made something similar... I'll have to find it and post it.

I can see some use for that, but the actual power generated on a static non-moving target is only part of the equation. Accuracy and timing are two other huge parts of the equation.
