Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Under Armour’s first connected sneakers — CES 2016”.
Hey everyone, its Lauren good with the verge. These are under armours, first connected sneakers they’re, the speedform Gemini 2 and they’re connected sneakers. They have sensors in them. These are not the world’s first connected sneakers. You might remember the days of Nike shoe pods.
Maybe you’ve used one of those, but this is similar to that idea. There is an accelerometer in the right shoe and that will measure your steps and to an extent distance. Although they aren’t GPS in them or anything, the shoe will store up to five runs and then a sixth run. It will override one of the earlier runs and then he’s actually connect with Under Armour’s Matt might run app and share all of your run data to that app.
So these cross $ 150 they’re shipping in late February. I’Ve been wearing them actually for the past couple weeks, I just say they’re, pretty comfortable they’re light they’re the first Under Armor sneakers that I’ve worn, and I think I like them more just for how they feel than I do for the tracking capabilities there you have It Under Armour connected sneakers .
