- Devices that are (bad kind of) internet-dependent, harvest data, are a security risk, and such.

In this thread a bunch of nerds who have never set foot in a gym laughing at those with expendable income working out ๐คฃ
Why would you need some kind of smart mirror to work out? What doe it even do?
Form is quite important in yoga, dancing, weight lifting when you get serious into it. You will commonly see folks with high level goals ask to be filmed, or reviewed by a coach/trainer. This allows you to 1) have classes while reviewing form 2) have an instructor review yours, 3) provide a way to review progress.
I'm not saying it's for most people, but for some this could be a highly useful and logical tool for a niche audience.
