As a group we have decided to focus on gamification as a way of 'enhancing' the ModBox experience.
I am a little worried as we are a bunch of people more at home in front of a laptop streaming the latest Marvel movie than we are in the sports gym. Will we come up with something so fresh and new that it takes the world by storm (like laser force), or will we create a thing that is too novel and kitsch and loses the appeal of people actually interested in sports (like laser force).
A team have already tread this path with 2020 Armor, which has gamified Taekwondo. The system appears as something that will not revolutionise the sport, but create something new and fun to enhance training schedules, particularly with younger players. This looks like a worthwhile path to follow.
