February 2023 · Bali, Indonesia
In 2023 we took the ARIS Band to a gym in Bali and ran sessions with groups of fitness instructors and training professionals.
The sessions gave instructors an opportunity to experience ARIS firsthand and explore how wearable sensing technology could be used to track movement and provide insights into strength training.
Getting the band onto working instructors is worth more than demonstrating it at a stand. They coach for a living, so what they say about fit, comfort and whether a reading actually tells them anything useful carries more weight than any conclusion we can reach on our own.
It was also a valuable opportunity for our team to gather feedback directly from fitness professionals and better understand how wearable technology could fit into real-world training environments.
The visit was part of our ongoing work to develop ARIS as a practical tool for strength training, fitness coaching and exercise tracking.
