FIT cellphone concept to make cellphone users “fitter”
Section: Communications, Cellphones, Mobile, Gadgets / Other, Lifestyle
I don’t know where manufacturers got the idea that gadgets and exercise buffs would go good together, so I’m genuinely surprised every time I see a new “sports trainer phone”, “diet tracking device” or other similar gadget. These things, of course, more often than not die faster than a flame inside a hurricane, of course that shouldn’t stop new concepts from coming out of the woods now, should it? Especially not one that uses back-to-back OLED multi-touch screens, a compact hydrogen battery and dual-core processors.
The FIT cellphone concept uses existing technology in order to track a user’s performance. A computerized personal trainer pre-programmed into the FIT phone will periodically provide fitness plans, track burned calories, and give a diet list based on a user’s exercise advancement level. It even has videos showcasing professionals with their exercise techniques pre-loaded to help you kick-start your own personal exercise program. And it’s no slouch on multimedia too, with a music player, camera, and a whopping 80GB of storage built into the device as well.
The last, and perhaps the most interesting, feature of the FIT cellphone lies in its power switch mechanism. To turn the device on, you simply have to grab it. I really couldn’t have said it better.
