Virtual Trainers In A Virtual Mirror: Video

Here’s an interesting video that we grabbed at IFA last year.
The concept? Rather than shops needing to have huge stock of every trainer available, all that would be needed is for a stock of virtual trainers.
This gives the shops a number of advantages. The shops can be considerably smaller, saving money on expensive ground rent; they’ll be able to sell trainers that they don’t have in stock; trainers that don’t even _exist_ can be sold – how good is that for a business?
Watch the display at the top to see the trainers being rendered in real-time, as they twist and turn.
Mechanical legs were used so a volunteer didn’t need to be waggling their legs around all day!
