Gamify fitbit experience

Really love to see FITBIT wear:

1.  sync to any popular game and enable its' screen to display game life, manna, power and vibrate when hit taken or alert if enemy is nearby.

2. The HR input change the game mechanics and dynamic. E.g. in shooting game, higher heartbeat make it harder to aim. Or in horror game, hifher hearbeat send the character panic. 

3. To warn gamers that its time to go out and get a real work out. Real work out at bonus to game e.g. coins, loot box etc. 

 

4. Bring in the PET and encourage developer to develop pet game for fitbit wearable. Remember Digimon or Tamagotchi. The same mechanics but fitness amplified. The more active and fit you are the stronger the pet. And you can breed / battle / team up with fitbit user. Winning badges and challenges. This rewards can be converted to points or vouchers where you can used as cashback or discounts when using fitbit pay. 

 

5. Bring the adventure & discovery spirit alive using fitbit. The more you go outside or achieve the more reward you get. Bring the pokemon go mechanics in. The more you explore or work out the more loots or legendary badges youll get. The badges can change the fitbit mobile apps theme and some bonus to other apps installed in the watch. Its like treasure hunt on google map.

 

I believe this feature will differentiate fitbit ecosystem vs. Other player. Gitting people fit physically & digitally. 

 

Thanks
