SPORTS SHOES PLAY SALES VIDEO Sports shoes manufacturer New Balance has started selling shoes in its Boston flagship store with RFID chips in their labels that trigger a video for the selected shoe to play on an in-store video screen. Customers removing shoes from the shelves or holding them close to a sensor cause a computer to play the relevant film on the nearest video screen. Besides shoe details, shoppers will also see mood videos and close-ups of stress tests. An "Altar" is also in planning, which is a Microsoft table computer that will fulfil a similar purpose.
