MOPET is a PocketPC-based application that uses a GPS device to monitor a user’s position and speed on outdoor fitness trails. It provides map-based navigation assistance, and speech instructions. It also offers motivation support and context-aware exercise demonstrations using an X3D H-Anim embodied virtual trainer. When the user approaches a fitness trail station, the GPS identifies the station, and a humanoid demonstrates how to correctly perform the exercise. A detailed paper and a very entertaining but informative WMV-format video demo are available.
