This is some cool shi'ite!!!!

I would run every single day if I had a version of this at my pad...

"The distance you run on the conveyor belt is the same distance you will cover in the virtual city in front of you. By quickening your pace, the acceleration of the belt as well as the speed of the image increases and depending on your running behaviour and the directional choices you make, the progress of the film is determined."

Thats pretty cool, but it'd be way better if you had a screen behind you as well with various people chasing and yelling/screaming at you, i.e. horde of zombies, mob of angry people with pitchforks and shit, or even the police. :rofl:

if the Wii took off, I don't see how this wouldn't in the near future.... Besides as detached as we are becoming, how many joggers out there would not love one of these.

Cool in a way that people who live in a boring environment or an area where it's not safe to run can experience a different vision, but stupid in the fact that it just shelters everyone in even more - people who used to run out in the real atmosphere will do it in the confines of the building. Blah, I'll take a trail over a TV screen any day. But, that's not always possible, especially during winter weather, etc.. so this is cool in that way. Sure beats video games where you sit down and push buttons.

Being a runner myslef, I'd never really get inot the virtual running atmosphere. It's just not the same, as neat as it is. Plus, actually going out and running is free, this, not so much.
