April 03, 2008Sega Body Trainer thinks you're fat
This should be filed under 'services you really don't need to pay for.' Sega, which is known for successful hardware, is introducing their Body Trainer headphones. After you input your height, weight, and age, Sega's latest 'medical entertainment' device will passive aggressively call you a slacker. It measures your heart rate with an ear lobe clip, so it'll know when you sluff off. When you dip into lazypants territory, it'll chime in and politely request you exercise harder. In a world where just about everyone will insinuate you're fat as politely as possible, we're not entirely sure why Sega decided to invent these. It seems that, if we were going to invent a robot to annoy people, we probably shouldn't make one so fragile. [Via Engadget]
