Jimmy Fallon on his late night show, sported the new Nike Fuel Band, the latest 2012 Nike gadjet that measures your activity throughout your day.
An accelerometer measures your activity and quantifies it into “fuel” and LED coloured lights display when you approach your target goal.
With a built in USB port and mobile app, the Nike Fuel Band not only measures time, calories and your steps but you can track your progress.
The whole concept of marketing life as a sport is encouraging in the sense that while it serves as a health tracking device, it also encourages you to staying active.
Worn on the wrist, the Nike Fuel Band makes every activity count whether your dancing, running, jumping ,or just waving goodbye.
Quantifying Nike Fuel into various “fuel” motivated activities is a sport in itself trying to bring the fun into any activity. For instance if you wanted to measure how much fuel you used brushing your teeth compared to brushing your hair, the Nike Fuel Band would be able to tell you.
The Nike Fuel Band can be used as motivational health tracking device to work independently or in groups. Whether it brings the sport out of life or makes life into a neverending sport, with even more information to track and store will depend on the user. If anything it could atleast get a conversation going for those who want something to show and tell and then see how much fuel they used up doing that activity..
Apparently the Nike Fuel Band is limited in quantity and NikeStore.com will replenish theNike Fuel Band inventory on a regular basis.
