UK - Sennheiser UK's guidePORT Health & Fitness Partner, TrackTones Ltd, has won the Barclays Bank Award for Commercial Innovation 2003. The award was presented at the recent seventh annual London Innovation Awards ceremony at the British Library, to TrackTones inventor and managing director, Steve Parkin, by Minister of State for E-Commerce and Competitiveness, Stephen Timms MP, and Huw Evans, Barclays Bank Corporate Director of Technology, Media & Telecomms.

The invention, which earned Steve Parkin's company accreditation as Sennheiser's first guidePORT Health & Fitness Partner, incorporates the new Sennheiser guidePORT intelligent, wireless personal audio guide system in a product designed to enhance music delivery and improve performance benefits in health and fitness facilities.

TrackTones can provide up to 16 simultaneous high quality audio channels via the digital RF guidePORT system. It is able not only to enhance the psychological environment during exercise, but also to monitor and update individual music preferences by means of an interactive online delivery system.

Commenting on the award, Sennheiser director of sales Alan Johnson told us: "We've been working closely with Steve on the TrackTones project for some time and would like to congratulate him on this award. This development represents a fresh approach to the powerful features of the guidePORT system and, alongside the recent launch of the guidePORT Partner and Health & Fitness Partner schemes, underlines our belief that guidePORT can be used in a wide variety of applications."
