Nike

Nike self tying laces. We've been talking about these for a while right? But they are finally happening. The Back To The Future sneakers are now the real deal.

The Nike HyperAdapt 1.0 feature adaptive lacing that automatically tightens to your foot when your heel hits a sensor.

"Innovation at Nike is not about dreaming of tomorrow. It's about accelerating toward it," said Nike designer Tinker Hatfield. "We're able to anticipate the needs of athletes because we know them better than anybody. Sometimes, we deliver a reality before others have even begun to imagine it."

Jawbone and Fitbit battle heats up

Jawbone and Fitbit are doing battle in the courtroom, again. According to TechCruch:

"In a motion to amend the original filing, Jawbone wants to add a new defendant to the case that formerly worked at Jawbone but defected to Fitbit, bringing a host of confidential information along with her. Jawbone also now contends that this person, along with previously named defendants, lied under oath that they had returned all confidential Jawbone information prior to leaving the company."

You may remember that, back in October, Jawbone scored a victory over Fitbit when a San Francisco judge ruled in a preliminary injunction that former Jawbone employees breached their contracts when they left to join Fitbit.

The judge ruled the employees must return all "confidential, proprietary information, technical data, trade secrets or know-how" and allow an independent audit of their computers and online files.
