Peloton has launched the new AI-enabled strength-training device Peloton Guide, which connects to a user’s TV and monitors their workout in real time for expert in-home instruction. Peloton Guide uses machine learning technology to track the user’s movements and identify patterns in training.
In addition to movement tracking, Peloton Guide’s features Self Mode, Body Activity, voice activation and member-controlled privacy. The device’s smart camera technology allows users to compare their workout techniques to professional instructors in Self Mode, while Body Activity will track which muscle groups a user has deployed or ignored. Voice activation means that Peloton Guide can be operated hands-free.
The product includes a Peloton Heart Rate Band—a piece of wearable tech that measures a user’s heart rate to track effort, activity levels and improvement. The band is compatible with other Peloton products. Peloton debuted their new gamified experience Lanebreak in July and announced plans to construct its first U.S. manufacturing facility in May.
