With so many of us trying to keep in shape outside of a gym these days, it's no wonder that there's been a surge in interest in at-home fitness equipment. And a new approach to exercise fitness technology called smart mirrors or fitness mirrors are the next frontier in bringing the gym to your living room. This type of exercise equipment was first pioneered by a company called MIRROR. Founded in 2016 by Brynn Putnam, a former ballet dancer with the New York City Ballet and founder and CEO of Refine Method, a fitness studio in New York, MIRROR established this new category of fitness equipment and technology.
The MIRROR functions both as an elegant full-length mirror when it's not in use and as an innovative home gym. It measures 52" x 22" x 1.4" inches and weighs 70 pounds. It features a 40-inch, full-HD LCD screen that blends with the mirror so you can see both the instructor and yourself when you look at it while it's powered on. When it's powered off or in sleep mode, it reverts to a sleek mirror that doesn't look like a piece of fitness equipment at all. The MIRROR also includes a camera, which can be covered up when not in use. This is for use during personal training sessions so your instructor can see you and what you're doing to correct form and provide motivation and feedback in real time. Speakers are also built in. The MIRROR uses wi-fi to stream classes, and your network will need to average 10 megabits per second to maintain good connection. You can also download classes and run them offline if connectivity is an issue.
