iRun Does Portable Livestreams, Makes You Look Like a Jerk
Posted in: streaming, Today's Chili, Weird News
Joseph Tame will be competing in the Tokyo marathon this month, and yes, he will be dressed like that. It’s all part of the British runner’s plan to live stream the event. The bizarre getup includes four iPhones, an An Android handset, an iPad, three routers, a heart monitor, and an atmospheric mointor.
Says Tame,
This technology will allow me to broadcast live video on two cameras (using either skype or FaceTime to a local studio for re-broadcast), send live location/pace/heart rate data via Runkeeperon the iPhone, transmit temperature, COx/humidity/noise levels via a custom-made Android app – and do all of this while looking incredibly cool.
You’ll be able to watch it all through Tame’s site on the 27th. Video of the devices in action, after the jump.
