Vi Artificially Intelligent Personal Trainer
Vi consists of a hearable device, artificially intelligent personal training and voice and text interaction. Or it will, since it is now on Kickstarter... If it launches.
(VI, the artificially intelligent personal trainer)
A great trainer makes working out 10x more motivating, fun, and effective. That’s why we created Vi—an evolving personal trainer who lives in bio-sensing earphones. Put Vi on and start a relationship with a friend for your fitness.Each day, Vi tracks you, gets smarter, and coaches you to real results. Vi will help you meet your weight goals or improve your run. Plus, enjoy your favorite music and talk on the phone without ever touching a single button.
We designed VI as a neckband because it allows you to comfortably enjoy the full benefits of Vi all day long: Beautiful-sounding music, phone calls, all day activity tracking unification – to name a few. Vi gives you SO MUCH MORE than current fitness wearables and headphones.
Fans of Manga Clamp's Chobits already know about persocoms, "person computers", like Sumomo, the personal trainer!
