Running and jogging can be a challenging activity for those seeking a social exercise experience to keep up with, so the 'Ghost Pacer' running trainer has been developed with this in mind. The revolutionary headset makes use of holographic technology to let runners simply put on the unit and race against a virtual opponent that they'll perceive as being right there with them. This virtual runner could be themselves from a previous run to help beat their best time, a friend who has ran the course prior and more.
The 'Ghost Pacer' running trainer works with the accompanying smartphone app to let users access thousands of different works in their area to keep them motivated and never feeling bored or lonely.
