Monarc is a "sports robotics company changing the way athletes train in football," according to their website. Founded by Igor Karlicic and Bhargav Maganti, 

One of Monarc's claims to fame is the "Seeker," a robotic quarterback machine that Harrison says in the video was crucial to his performance this season.

"The Seeker was a big part of my success last season," Harrison said. "It allows me to put in work by myself (and) keeps me on the top of my game."

Harrison can be seen in the video completing a variety of solo drills using the Seeker, both at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center (where the football team typically practices and lifts) and at the Lincoln Tower Fields on West Campus.

Mark Pantoni, Ohio State's director of player personnel, commented on Twitter that the partnership between Monarc and Harrison is a "match made in heaven."
