After Nike presented already in 2006 shoes with integrated computer tracking of the running performance, the new Nike+ Basketball and Nike+ Training 'fashion sport devices' will be available from June 2012 on. The Nike+ wearable technology consists of a shoe with chip which sends the performance data of the athlete via App to a smartphone where it can be analyzed ('Track My Game'-modus), stored, and shared via social media as a self-filmed video with embedded statistics ('Showcase'-modus) to your 'friends or rivals' such as LeBron James introduces into the wearable technology (video below).

The first digital tracking basketball shoe will be the Nike Hyperdunk+ which will be worn by LeBron James this summer: "I think Nike+ Basketball will change the game. Giving every player access to this level of information will have a huge impact on the way players train and play the game." nikeinc.com/lebron-james/
