| Description | Interactive Running Video Software |
Outside Interactive has developed “Pre-Paced” DVDs and Virtual Runner Software for treadmill users to simulate the pace a person would run outside through a series of videos the runner would view while stuck inside on their own treadmill.
Pre-Paced DVDs would allow the user to pre-select a pace they would run on famous race courses such as the Boston Marathon. They video would then play at that pace to emulate the pace which the treadmill operates. These videos will work with any DVD player and any treadmill.
Virtual Runner brings the experience one step further. The user attaches a small footpod to their shoelace which communicates with a wireless USB receiver connected to the user’s laptop or PC. The foortpod transmits the runner’s pace to the USB receiver which in turn controls the pace of the video through the Virtual Runner software. If the user runs faster, the video speeds up. If the video slows down or stops, the video responds accordingly and accurately.
