Abstract
The present invention relates to delivery of content that is driven by input from one or more performance sensor units, such as performance sensor units configured to monitor motion-based performances and/or audio-based performances. Embodiments of the invention include software and hardware, and associated methodologies, associated with the generation, distribution, and execution of such content. Attention is paid to implementations whereby performance sensor units provide input to an adaptive training program.
