SAN FRANCISCO, CA — (Marketwired) — 04/17/13 — KinectHealth today announced the launch of KinectHealth for Windows 8 at DEMO Mobile 2013, a launch event exclusively concentrated on the best new mobile technologies based on design, innovation and market potential.
KinectHealth is a mobile fitness studio. It has three elements which motivate people to stay in shape: compelling workouts, biometric data from a motion sensing webcam and workout buddies. The integration of these three elements in a mobile package increase motivation: reshaping lives for the better. Consumers receive high quality and fresh workout videos directly to their mobile devices. There is something for everyone: low impact dancing, yoga and high intensity training. All workouts are 10 minutes or less so individuals can squeeze in a workout anytime or mix and match for additional personalization. A free trial, with optional $14 upgrade is available at the Windows Store.
“Success with fitness requires motivation which can be provided by mobile technology,” said Bob Summers, Chief Geek and founder of KinectHealth. “KinectHealth maximizes motivation and removes excuses by connecting trainers, work out buddies and data into one convenient application.”
KinectHealth will provide a live, four-minute demonstration of the KinectHealth mobile fitness studio for Window s8 on the DEMO Mobile 2013 stage at 9am on April 17, 2013 and will host live demonstrations beginning today at Booth D21 in the DEMO Mobile 2013 pavilion.
“Our health is about to be transformed by mobile,” said Erick Schonfeld, executive producer of DEMO. “KinectHealth cleverly combines engaging videos, beautiful design, and movement-capture camera technology to bring world-class fitness trainers to peoples- tablets.”
Driven by a mission to improve the lives through data and social workouts, KinectHealth is innovating in the mobile space with its breakthrough motion sensing technology. Located in Techpad, a Blacksburg, Virginia co-working space, KinectHealth is a three time recipient of the NSF/Mozilla foundation “gigabit app of the future” award.
