With the New Year comes those resolutions - um, failed resolutions. You may not be able to stay on track when it comes to that vow to drop a few pounds. However, Panasonic isn't ready to throw in the towel just yet.
The manufacturer just announced an addition to its new VIERA Connect offerings that just might keep you on track: the Withings Health Dashboard. The Withings WiFi Body Scale uses wireless technology to store weight, BMI, and body fat data online, on an iPhone, and yes, even transmit it to your big-screen HDTV. When combined with one of Panasonic's 2011 VIERA Connect-enabled VIERA HDTVs, users can track that vital info through the familiar VIERA Cast menu.
VIERA Connect-enabled HDTVs boast expanded video streaming and other interactive features. But who knew that it could actually help your butt get smaller?
"Withings is working towards a new era in connected health devices and this partnership is yet another move in that direction," said Co-Founder of Withings Cedric Hutchings. "Making your health data as easily accessible as possible is a key feature of the WiFi Body Scale. Now, you can access all your information via your MAC, PC, mobile device or television."
Other household members don't get to just sit back, scarf down snacks, and watch you weigh in. The Withings WiFi Body Scale system can track info for up to eight people.
