FIT PC Concept
Published by Sierra Monica B., on Mar 14 2008, in the categories: NextGen PC Design Competition
When FIT was conceived, the designer probably didn’t know that Samsung will release a very similar device with the same features and based on the same concept: to provide joggers a personal training assistant in the form of a mobile device easy attachable to the arm.

Samsung myCoach monitors your heart beats and gives you access to analysis and tracking of your fitness program, as well as details about your plans and feedback, based on the recordings made via a sensor chip attached to the arm.
Besides these, myCoach comes with the standard functions of a mobile phone such as music player, Bluetooth connectivity, digital camera and others, but FIT comes to complete these features, unveiling a perfect portable computer trainer meant to significantly reduce the time needed for monitoring your fitness plan and diet goal levels.

As a complex device, it is optimized for more functions required in self training than myCoach such as calorie burn tracking, progress graphics, adjustable diet according to the user’s progress level, grocery lists showing the right foods and supplements needed, and even videos showing professional trainers techniques.

Supporting the idea of a healthy life improved by sport, FIT comes with additional elements to make our two hours-free time per day dedicated to jogging a real pleasure, and it provides us a built-in music player for songs stored in its 80GB flash drive.
Other feature include USB connectivity, a dual-core processor, a compact hydrogen battery, and thermal cooling coming from the outer battery housing design which acts like fins of a heat sink.
You would see the details about your program on two large OLED displays with multi-touch-sensitivity that run simultaneously independent from each other, so you can check on one the calorie burn and on the other side the song details and music controls.
FIT is easy to carry and to use, measuring 102 x 84 x 12 mm, and being built of glass and soft silicone material with pressure sensors so when you’d want to turn it on you’d just have to grab it in your hand and squeeze it.
