Peloton has had nice success with their networked, big-screened train bike, but it surely seems the corporate needs to be bracing for some competitors if a just lately unearthed patent utility from Sony is something to go by.
The design patent, which was filed in March 2018, is for a “combined media player and fitness machine” doesn’t reveal a lot concerning the know-how of the system, however the giant curved display suggests the potential for a totally immersive Tour de France expertise amongst others. Sony does, in any case, make the very talked-about PlayStation console, so clearly have the chops to supply an interactive train system.
Unfortunately, we have no idea the standing of the venture, or how a lot it should value, however the higher Peloton does, the extra seemingly it appears Sony will ultimately try to seize a share of that success for themselves.
Se the total design patent right here.
