IT company Fukui Computer has unveiled a new line of networked exercise machines, called “medimo,” that are equipped with Hitachi finger vein readers, which adjust the settings of the fitness equipment automatically for regular users. This gear can be hooked up to a remote server to update gym bunnies’ stats—calorie consumption and current exercise regime—with the info then displayed on a touchscreen. The 12 new medimo machines will be unveiled on February 18 costing around $17,000 each. [PinkTentacle]
