Buzzing Snowboard Guides Snowboarders Down Treacherous Slopes

Do you like to go skiing or snowboarding. If you have answered "Yes!" for the latter activity and are still figuring your way around on a snowboard, then you would do well to pay attention to the future thanks to this technologically enhanced snowboard that will vibrate to help guide you down those treacherous slopes. A particular researcher is looking into developing devices that can be taped onto people's limbs, where it will teach them how to shift one's weight as the snowboard goes downhill. Daniel Spelmezan, a researcher over at the Université Paris Sud, has managed to run a preliminary test of his devices on 10 new snowboarders.
