Dr. Scholl's Sole Analysis Machine

Saw this interactive information-/-promotional machine while shopping at a local department store, and thought I'd give it a try.

What's going on in the vid:
After stepping on it, there is a little pause while the machine shows you a generic pressure read-out, then it shows you YOUR pressure read-out, I play with this by rocking forwards and backwards to see how responsive it is, then you see the yellow ball & target, this is to calibrate the reading for both feet supporting your weight, then you lift up your right foot in order to get a reading for all your weight on that foot, then do the same thing as before but with your left foot lifted, it then uses these 3 readings to recommend the best Dr. Scholl's gel-sole insert for you.

Pretty darn cool !

p.s. when I first took off my shoes and saw the computer responding to my movements; I had this feeling that I would start seeing arrows coming up from the bottom of the screen, LOL.
