running watches by nike image

I am a baseball player and was watching baseball and saw a new nike wristband that Miami and other college teams have been wearing and a couple of pro teams that have them too. I want a pair because they have many colors and they are thin enough as if they were tape. (which I wear now). All I know is there nike.

Is there a sensor in my nike plus shoes?
Ciaran
I bought a pair of Nike plus shoes.
Is there a sensor in them or do I have to buy one?
What does the sensor in the shoe do?
Is it worth getting one?
I have the android app and it has no menu or settings for the shoe sensor,why not?
Answer
- Unless you have put a sensor in there then there won't be one
- Don't base your running shoe choice on a gadget, base it on how they feel and fit (just in case you didn't)
- If you want to put a sensor in the shoe you have to buy one and remember that other companies apart from Nike make running gadgets with a shoe sensor (such as Adidas, Garmin, Timex, )
- The sensor essentially sends a signal out every time it moves and when it stops moving and from this can work out how many steps you are taking and how long your foot is stationary on the floor for (it is stationary when in contact with the floor - else you are slipping). A bit of maths from the number of steps and time stationary works out speed and then some maths to work out distance and a guess at the calories you have used. Assume this to be about 90% accurate - above or under what it really is.
- To use the nike systems you will need to buy a sensor and have a gadget to record and display the data that it sends out. The cheapest is the sportsband (about £40) the most expensive is the ipod (£160 + receiver) or the iphone (iphone 4S from about £500 - remember that next time you take it for a run in the rain).
- My preferred system is a Garmin GPS watch (Garmin forerunner 205 by preference) and if you must listen to music then a much cheaper than overpriced apple stuff and a Sony mp3 player at about £20 or supermarket own one for about £10... then all is good when it rains
