1. A method, comprising:
receiving a synchronization timing instruction having a duration and a plurality of timings therein, wherein the duration represents a rowing stroke cycle determined based on a stroke rate and the plurality of timings specifies desired time instances for a corresponding plurality of events in the stroke cycle to occur;
transmitting the synchronization timing instruction to multiple rowers to facilitate synchronization, across the multiple rowers, of each of the plurality of events based on the plurality of timings, wherein the plurality of events includes an event that an oar passes a knee of a rower;
with respect to each of the plurality of events with a corresponding one of the plurality of timings as specified in the synchronization timing instruction,
receiving, from a sensor associated with each of the rowers for detecting an occurrence of the event, an actual timing of the event relating to the rower,
determining, based on the actual timings of the event relating to the multiple rowers and the corresponding timing, a synchronization status on the event for each of the multiple rowers,
signaling, to each of the multiple rowers, the synchronization status on the event.
