Virtual trainers make attentive fitness training accessible

Video games have truly evolved into something much more helpful than Mario.  That’s thanks to Xbox 360′s Kinect platform.  A video camera connected to the video game console scans your picture while you play to literally put you in the game.  That’s where Ubisoft steps in.  They’re the developers of “Your Shape: Fitness Evolved.”  “Your Shape” scans your body and then follows your every move while you follow every move of your virtual trainer.  Get out of sync and your trainer let’s you know.  It never gets distracted.  Now you have a trainer that never forgets your weight or your age and has virtually no limit to its commitment and determination to help you become healthier.

Watch this video to learn more about “Your Shape.”
