The test on your tablet is then kept in sync with your head via a Bluetooth connection and tap or double tap on the sensor will move pages back and forth. Watch het video embedded below to learn more about the Run-n-Read sensor.
“Exercise both your body and mind. You can now read while on a treadmill or an elliptical machine. Long commutes don’t have to be boring. No more eye strain while reading in a train or a car.”
The Run-n-Read is compatible with both iOS and Android devices and is now available to pre-order for $100 and early adopters can pick one up for just $40, with shipping starting in January 2014, so don’t delay.
