Apple are currently planning on bringing the Nike+ training system to the iPhone and iPod Touch, as reported by Stuff.tv,
The Nike+ system was originally created for the iPod nano, using a small sensor placed in your shoe, the device would recordthe distance and length or your run and also act as a timer and pedometer to log your personal workout stats.
The new Nike+ system will also take advantage of the iPhone’s Wi-Fi capability giving the user the ability to transmit their workout stats to Nike’s online database - where a Coach system will help to improve their workouts and training.
From scratch, the system requires you to buy three things – a regular iPod Nano, a £19 Sports Pack (containing a ‘sensor’ and ‘receiver’) and a pair of £65 Nike Moire+ trainers. Together, this kit lets you measures running distances, allows set targets, get voice feedback on your progress and upload stats to the Nike+ training log.
