'I Connected an Exercise Bike to Mario Kart! | Labo Fit Adventure Kart'

Posted Sep 18, 2021

'Introducing Labo Fit Adventure Kart: A total-body exercise program that gets you fit while playing Mario Kart! The Labo Fit Adventure Kart Kit allows you to control your kart by pedaling on the Bike-Con and steering and shooting items with the Ring-Con.   Like many people, I find seeking the motivation to exercise impossibly difficult. That\'s why this year, I decided the only way I\'m going to get fit is by combining exercise with Mario Kart. So I designed and built an entire system of custom accessories and sensors to allow me to control Mario Kart while exercising! This video goes into detail behind why and how I created it.   Disclaimer: This is not an official Nintendo product, nor is it for sale-- it\'s just a concept that I think would be really cool to see. That being said, everything in the video is fully functional and actually works the way I describe! I designed and built these prototypes myself and I\'ve been using them to exercise for the past couple months, and it\'s a been a ton of fun!  Disclaimer #2: No Nintendo software or hardware has been modded in this video. Everything works through the TAPBO module, a small robot that I designed to press the buttons on the Joy-Con. (Nintendo, please don\'t take down my video. I worked tirelessly for 6 months on this. I mean no harm.)   Enjoy!
