Make boring exercises more exciting with the Qmotions FunFitness
Here’s an interesting device for fitness oriented folks out there. Qmotions, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Actiga, is launching a new game controller called the FunFitness which turns boring exercises into fun video racing games. The FunFitness controller measures running or biking body movements and then translates these movements into a video game. This means you can turn something like running in place or riding a stationary exercise bike into a full fledged gaming experience.
According to Qmotions, the FunFitness is easy to install and requires no tools at all. All you need is a stationary bike, a PS2 or Xbox, and a compatible game. Some of the games which will work with the FunFitness include:
- MTX Moto Trax
- Need for Speed Undergroud 1 & 2
- Need for Speed Most Wanted
- Gran Turismo 1,2,3, & 4
- NASCAR Sim Racing
- NASCAR Chase for the Cup
- ToCA Race Driver 1 & 2
- Midnight Club 1,2, &3
You can see a video of the controller in action here. Qmotions expects to launch the FunFitness during the second half of 2008.
