The beta version of Race Yourself, designed for Google Glass, is available and no less than 30 mini-games are unlockable.

As smart health connected objects “all-in” at CES 2020 in Las Vegas, they may invade our daily newspapers in a short time, Race Yourself seems to chew up a good number of smart health connected objects that are not even marketed yet.Race Yourself is an app for Google Glass that allows you to exercise in a fun way using augmented reality.It took six months to Review the beta version of the app. It goes without saying, but this version only concerns the privileged few who carry the Google Glass.

Compare yourself to the best

As the name suggests, the Race Yourself app allows you to chase after yourself and beat your personal best records by winning different virtual games.It will also be possible to create and edit courses, to know the number of calories burned, to race with your friends or even in front of projections of professional athletes.For example, you can Review yourself against a novice in the field, a young athlete in search of trophies and recognition, Usain Bolt (six-time Olympic gold medalist).

Zombies or dinosaurs to encourage you

If these possibilities are not really innovative compared to other smart health connected objects on the market, read what follows.If you lack motivation, perform below your usual times, the application simulates a zombie attack, dinosaurs or a cargo train launched in pursuit. When the user turns around, he will then see these different characters or objects chasing him.What stimulate the most recalcitrant to push their limits.Equally original, Race Yourself creates virtual doors that can be crossed during your ski runs.

By mixing reality with augmented (virtual) reality, the exercises become much more interesting and motivating.

says Alex Foster, founder of the app.Difficult to get bored with 30 mini-games to unlock.For those who wish to encourage this project, a crowdfunding campaign will soon be launched on the website.
