The Cycling Metaverse
Kinix is a tech company I founded in Tokyo in 2020 that has bridged the gap between e-sports and traditional sports by creating a cycling metaverse. Its state-of-the-art interactive video game platform revolutionizes the gaming and fitness landscapes by “e-sportifying” cycling data and workouts, offering an immersive and competitive gaming experience.
Kinix’s game platform connects players in real-time from all over the world. It integrates with standard Bluetooth FTMS protocol-based bike trainers, transforming cycling data (power, cadence, speed, time) into dynamic game controllers. Moreover, by incorporating smartphone gyroscopes into its technology, Kinix empowers users to steer their in-game characters, creating an unparalleled sense of agency and immersion.
Kinix’s unique approach holds significant importance for e-sports and traditional sports fields.
For E-sports: Kinix adds a physical dimension to the otherwise predominantly sedentary world of e-sports. By blending e-sports with actual sports, Kinix paves the way for a new genre of physically interactive games, extending the e-sports market reach and creating new opportunities for industry growth.
For Traditional Sports: Kinix transforms monotonous workouts into thrilling, competitive experiences, incentivizing fitness enthusiasts to push their limits. It offers a platform for traditional sports to tap into the digital realm, making sports training more engaging and appealing to the digital-savvy generation.
