Under Armour's name has recently gained momentum after they subtly introduced quality products in the market that offer game-changing innovations in the world of sports. Under Armour's latest design on running shoes came in the form of its Speed Form Gemini 2, Ars Technica reports. The athletic wear company has integrated technology in its running shoes, which can conveniently track fitness activities.

The Under Armour Gemini 2 is fully equipped with sensors that allow the runner to keep track of activity stats such as calorie count, distance and pace. The sensors are strategically placed on the soles of the shoes for maximum recording efficiency.

An excellent feature of the Under Armour Gemini 2 is the absence of another gadget to keep track of running stats. The built-in sensors allow practicality by only wearing one apparel that can do the task of two. The Gemini 2's sensor can be synced to MapMyRun app, where it automatically transfer stat information to the app, saving it for later viewing.

The Gemini 2 has been created to pair with the MapMyRun app. All the runner needs to do is shake the right shoe in order to sync the sensor to the app. What's interesting about this latest innovation is the absence of wires and cables connected to a device in order to gather information.

The design of the Under Armour Gemini 2 features the simple design of conventional running shoes. With no elaborate electronic feature that alters the design, one may not notice its one-of-a-kind feature, except for the "Record Equipped" labeled on the footbed and shoelaces.

As for the technological concept of the shoes, an Under Armour representative confirmed that the "auto start" feature of the sensor will only work when the user is already running at a speed of one mile per 12 minutes. The shoes doesn't need to be charged and will have to rack up at least 450 miles before you can actually say it has served its purpose.

According to Mashable, the company is contemplating on using the same technology to some of their products such as cleat shoes. An Under Armour spokesman said, "The algorithms we created are for un-tethered runs, which wouldn't really work well on a football scenario where the athlete is stopping and starting. But we will see how users are taking advantage of the product, look at the data and roll it out to other categories."
