Taipei, Taiwan, Jan. 19th, 2015 — J-MEX Inc, a company based in the Hsinchu Science Park in Taiwan and experienced in the application of MEMS motion sensing technology, unveiled MOTi, a premium gym activity tracker that coaches users through their workout sessions. MOTi is designed specifically to motivate and enhance fitness enthusiasts’ workout experience at the gym and comes with an aluminum core and a snap-it-on strap that can be worn on either wrist/ankle, arm, or thigh. By wearing it on different position, it automatically tracks all the important stats that matter in the gym, identifies types of workout, logs reps, calculates calories burnt and recognizes users’ muscle usage so that they can be ready for the next workout. What makes MOTi really unique is the coaching programs that are embedded in the come-along MOTi app.
“As a person who really cares about my health, I want to track and understand my body more than from running, but how my workout affects my body and muscle quality…and at the same time learn new ways/workouts to improve and motivate myself to be better. That is why we created MOTi and this is just the beginning,” said Eric Ni, CEO and Founder of J-MEX Inc. After months of going through multiple versions of design, testing and refining the concept, J-MEX decided to focus on something that is “softer,” something most of the wearables in the market tend to overlook: the coaching program.
