Last year I worked on a concept idea for a Spinning and Cycling simulator for use at fitness clubs.
First up is a short Trailer for my Spinning and Cycling simulator:
And here is the complete 33 minute video demo of my Spinning and Cycling simulator:
Description:
Instead of putting a camera on a car or on a bicycle, we wanted our viewers to see a fluent training exercise without distraction from traffic. With other training exercises that use onboard camera's the car drives much faster then a normal human can cycle.
The track is fitted around the music and the spinning or cycling program. The exercise is therefore combined with music and environment.
The video can be used for both spinning teachers (on TV or beamer), or for solo use on your pc screen, tv or beamer.
See for example: youtube.com/​watch?v=JCIWHOfg_ro
This is the beta version of the video there is no on-screen instruction. We want to give the instructor their own vision on the exercise video.
Background Information:
Our idea was to promote spinning to a new level added with visual stimulation with 40-50 minutes sessions. The focus would be on the road. Adding not too much detail to speed up the progress. It was hard work to develop an idea into the actual video, but the demo shows that its possible. The demo is in beta stage, so I will try to fix some of the hiccups and timing issues in the next version.
I removed any reference to the company which was setup for this idea. The demo was created on the Cryengine2 for testing purpose, hence the Crytek adds. If we would develop it commercially we would have switched to another engine, so it would be possible to add our own advertisements.
Since the spinning instructor left the project due to real life issues I was left alone in this project as designer.Without a spinning instructor its pointless to continue the program. Still I'm very proud of what we have accomplished and therefore I'm putting the demo for you on the internet for your enjoyment.
It is my hope that people will enjoy using this video as an exercise.
